UConn women’s basketball will play its first contest in front of a crowd this weekend when it takes on Fort Hays State in exhibition action. To preview the contest, we discuss what we’ll be watching for from the Huskies, such as:

* Is Paige Bueckers’ new approach for real?

* Does Sarah Strong match the sky-high expectations from her coach?

* How does Jana El Alfy perform in her first game in a UConn uniform?

We also get into some eye-catching quotes from Geno Auriemma at Big East Media Day and much more.
