STORY LINES

THE STAT SHEET: UConn passes the eye test through five games, but the stat sheet isn't so pretty. The Huskies are shooting 29.9 percent from 3-point range, they rank 319th in the nation in rebounds (29.6 per game) and Tyler Olander, their starting center, is shooting 33 percent from the field.

STAYING PERFECT: Although it encountered a super close call against Quinnipiac, UConn has never lost to a former Jim Calhoun assistant. The Huskies will try to make it 17-0 this afternoon against Steve Pikiell and Stony Brook.

BACK HOME: Believe it or not, this is UConn's second game in the U.S. this year. They traveled over 11,000 miles in two weeks, bouncing from Germany to Storrs to St. Thomas back to Storrs. "I'm finally getting some sleep," Napier said. "I feel like I missed so many hours of sleep when we were traveling. It's good to be home, see the family for Thanksgiving."
