I see that USF vs Louisville is the 9 PM game on ESPN2 on Monday, following Carolina/Tennessee. Best of luck both Friday against Cincy, and also on Monday! Should be fun to watch!

Thanks.

At least Alisia is back to help, especially with the rebounding against UL.

No word on when Laura will return to play.

Wow, more than 200 posts about another team's season. Says a lot about the largely communal nature of wbb.

I look forward to taking my son to the USF-Uconn game 2/29 in Storrs...where I'll be joining my local community in rooting against USF.

 

[USFMB]

Will history repeat itself?

"The last time USF upset a ranked opponent on the road was Feb. 20, 2013 at Louisville. The Bulls upset No. 11/12 Louisville, 73-62, Williams and Jenkins freshman season. Jenkins scored eight points and grabbed two rebounds as a starter, while Williams added five points and three rebounds off the bench."

Massey gives USF a 35% chance to win and predicts UL 72 USF 67.

Go Bulls!!

 

[ChicagoGG]

Well, that was too bad that it didn't go the Bulls way in Louisville. Courtney was magnificent as always, but not enough support....

99 posts by 1 USF fan and 100 plus by others over 10 1/2 months...just to give communal context

 

[ChicagoGG]

Well actually, Rocky, I'm not so much feeling communal as I like USF. I bleed blue, but I also think USF is pretty good and I root for them to do well against anyone who isn't wearing National Flag Blue. When I am visiting my brother I go to their games and enjoy them. I believe there are others on this board who may even have family that go to USF. I thought that all were welcome here, so I respond to USFMB when they post, and they to me.

Always root for USF to beat non-conference opponents - improves the status of the conference, plus Jose is a good guy. Go Bulls, and USFMB should keep on posting their news!

 

[ChicagoGG]

Glad to see Courtney made the list of 20 for the Wooden award.

Congratulations on the Memphis win today. Hope Laksa's ankle is okay. It was good to see Laura playing again.

I've been away on a cruise, but got back in time to watch the game yesterday. Memphis had a couple of players who seemed to make every shot, but USF was able to overcome that by having five players in double digits.

Just when I thought USF was finally back at full strength, the Laksa injury happened. No word on when she will return. We probably won't need her @Tulsa, but I'd sure like to have her back for Temple and @Uconn.

 

[USFMB]

Laksa, as expected, didn't play @Tulsa, but we still were able to win. With that vicory, USF secured a bye in the AAC tourney, which will be helpful in getting our players healthy.

Our next game is Temple at home on Saturday. No word on whether Laksa will play.

[ChicagoGG]

How is her ankle? Somehow I am sure she will be playing at our place next week....

 

[USFMB]

If she plays (at all) Saturday in the game against Temple it will probably be sparingly. She was at Tulsa but wasn't suited up. I'll be at the game tomorrow so I'll (hopefully) be able to give an update on Laksa's leg.

 

[USFMB]

Laksa didn't suit up for the Temple game today. No word on whether she will play against UCONN.

Latest from USF release:

...Kitija Laksa (Riga, Latvia) went down with an ankle injury. The freshman long-range specialist has missed two games, and is still questionable to return for Monday’s game.

In an ESPN piece on Courtney Williams, Coach Fernandez is quoted as saying
that he hopes to have Laksa back for the tournament. That sounds like she
won't be playing on Monday.

Thanks for that info.

Personally, I didn't think she would play @Uconn. It's more imporant for her to return 100% healthy for the conference tourney and post season play.

 

[USFMB]

Just like @UL, USF kept it close for a half @Uconn.

Looking forward to getting a third chance in the conference tourney.
