Houston can thank the ref who called a bogus foul on Cooper with 20 secs left, that led to Houston taking the lead. I mean Duke choked big time. But so did that ref.

Interesting: Men play OK in the first round. Ladies due to get Sooners in the third. Let's go for the sweep.

Hard to get a lot of quality wins when playing in the BE

How does Creme think that a team we beat by 30 at their place deserves the overall No. 1

Well, did you see all those trophies Brenda had lined up in front of the team. (No one else does that.)

And one-and-done if they do get in. The fouling issues, the lack of a strong inside presence, the prevalence of long scoring droughts and.... of course....chronic inability to get the ball in safely. That all adds up to a likely 10-beats-7 result in March.

And it's not like the inbounds futility is a new issue. It's been a weakness for years and we're left with McNeeley throwing the ball over the opposite end line. Embarrassing the "the best coach in AMerica" and his staff. And, frankly, for the players.

How are they gonna finish this game.....everyone has 4 PFs.

I hope this means something, if not today, in the near future. That kid deserves some good news. We are all pulling for her.

Put me down as Kaitlin starting, with Ash as first off the bench. As far as front court goes, I wouldn't be surprised to see Morgan getting as many or more minutes than either Ice or Jana. The latter two are fine to bang with players like Cardoso, but their scoring issues make Morgan the...

Those who credit the Irish for out-quicking us -- I can't disagree. But the real issue is our inside game -- our inability to grab D boards, resulting in many second/third chance baskets. Also, although ND got credit for only 3 blocks in the box, it seemed like a lot more of our inside...

It's been commented on already, but I'll add my vote to Singare's first-half minutes -- foul plagued though they were -- were a revelation. Now we can sit SJ and Reed when they pick up their (seemingly inevitable) second fouls and not have to go small -- at least not for too long. If Sinare...

Well, Ruff Ruff probably doesn't consider K / Duke to be "top program" quality.

Dan could send a message to the team and the world by starting Singare, Abraham, Ross, DIaby and Nowell. If the starters want in, they'll have to earn minutes by playing UConn defense. (Also, when this crew picks up 8 or 9 fouls in the first three minutes, he'll have a decent bench to look...

So, whose idea was it to put the 2-time defending champs, #2 in the country, on ESPN at 2:30 in the middle of a work day? Are the prime time games that much more interesting? Or, maybe I'm wrong, and Dan wanted the team to have the afternoon on the beach?
