Why are the starters still in? I think that’s pretty distasteful of Graves up 30+

Chavez and Shelley off the bench have been teeing off lately.

I believe it was 5-1 advantage in calls at that point. It was a statement of fact.

Or just maybe they were fouling because they were having trouble defending them.

Sabrina’s first two foul calls were questionable, especially the first one. But according to you she “gets away with a lot.” :rolleyes: Been reading the Beaver boards a little too much.

Man Oregon just whipped their butts tonight. UConn better have their ducks in a row..............(see what I did there?)

Haven't you heard? This is a totally different UConn team now, they'll take any of Oregon, South Carolina or Baylor in a rematch. :rolleyes:

Lexie is a really good player, but she needs more consistency. Followed up yesterday's brilliant performance w/ a brutal 2-13 shooting performance.

*Help she and Williams both.... Carrington and Jones going down really dimmed Stanford’s chances IMO

She struggled from the field in the quarterfinal win over OSU as well. A quality defender, perhaps she needs to be a little more selective with her shot selection. She has a pull up jumper and length. She should be attacking Ionescu in the paint. She has passed up at least three chances to do so tonight.

Man, I do not want us to go to that Portland regional. Nobody wants to go there and with good reason.

All I want from refs is consistency. There was contact on both ends of the floor, but only 1 team was drawing fouls. They also got Stanford for a couple fouls on screens. Oregon was gonna win anyway, but the game totally changed during this stretch.

She played a brutal 39 min yesterday.
 
Well, Elite 8 is not so bad. :oops::oops::oops::oops::oops:
 
SI still in looking for triple double. What if she got hurt? No way Geno would have her in there right now. Talk about risk.

Oregon 56% shooting overall, 53% from behind the arc. Stanford was 34%/23%.

“Consistency” does not mean a perfect one to-one-ratio of foul calls.

Contact occurs on literally every play. Stanford got away with quite a bit of it early and frankly that’s why they were getting so many offensive rebounds. Not saying the refs “helped” them, only that Stanford was succeeding in pushing the limits of allowable contact.
 
Larry Scott got booed a little when Holly Rowe introduces him at the trophy presentation. :D

Only a little? Disappointing. I heard the NC State fans really gave it to the ACC commissioner. I think Scott is universally hated, he deserved more than a little boo. Maybe the Oregon fans were just too happy to be bothered with it.

It was too quick for the boos to gain momentum. He didn’t address the crowd. It was more like “and now commissioner L.S. presents the trophy” and the initial boos quickly turned to cheering for the trophy recipients.

Complete and utter destruction of yet another Top 10 team. Basically beat them by 40 before taking that webbed foot off the gas. I thought it was going to be a grind and trench warfare but turning up the defense just shut down the Tree. And the Duck shooters did their thing. Quite the performance. Wish the announcers weren’t so blase about what they were witnessing and that there was SOME interest on the part of ESPN to have some post game interviews and a glimpse at least of the celebratory antics and trophy presentation. Maybe catch it on YouTube down the road a bit. Sigh...

You never can hide your rooting preference. It’s always the team that gets hosed by the refs. :rolleyes:

I think it is Scott Rueck posting here tonight when it is about the refs. :)

It is a beaver thing about refs. Does not matter what sport it is in. They would have beat Stanford the other night if it was not for the refs.:rolleyes:

The celebration is being shown on the PAC-12 Network right now.
 
Whatevs. I follow a number of teams. If I see contact being called on one end and not the other, I'm gonna point it out. This board needs a giving the moon emoticon.

Very true. I am sure that Tara instructed her troops to crash the boards and play aggressively early to determine how much contact would be allowed. Good teams need to adjust to whatever level of physicality is allowed.

I didn't see anything out of the ordinary tonight from the officials that seemed to favor either team. Oregon avoids foul trouble for its stars by adjusting its defenses and its level of physicality. That will prove to be very beneficial during its tourney run.
