UConn women’s head coach Geno Auriemma blasted the officials during the basketball game against rival Tennessee.
The two programs have quite the history with each other, but Auriemma was heated during the second quarter amid foul calls. Despite a 40-36 lead going into the locker room, Auriemma wasted no time voicing his complaints about the foul calls.
Watch as he explained it to ESPN sideline reporter Holly Rowe.
“How do I address it,” Auriemma said. “How do I address it? Don’t address it. This is what you get when you come down here. The game was called one way and that changed. Not enough change. We didn’t change. Nothing else changed.”
