Pac 12 Network has been a real disappointment this season. There's the main channel, then each of the Regional feeds (LA, Bay Area, Washington, Oregon, Arizona, Mountains). For Friday and Sunday of the 4 Pac 12 games involving Washington schools...exactly none of them are being broadcast live on Pac 12 Washington. Why do they even bother having a Regional feed if they aren't going to show anything? Pretty pathetic. I'm glad the games are streaming, but still unbelievable. Instead of live games they replay previous games over and over and over again. They really should get rid of Larry Scott...oh, already done, but not soon enough.

The Leger-Walkers break out of their scoring slump and steal a win in the friendly confines of Cougarland. No one throws more unique passes in the country than these two houdinies

 

[nwhoopfan]

Maybe other teams can't do what Stanford did, or maybe the Card gave everyone a blueprint for shutting down the Leger-Walkers.


Cougs went ahead 3-0, then 9-0 run by UCLA (mostly by Osborne).

 

[nwhoopfan]

Okay never mind, Charlisse has 3 3's in the first 5 minutes, she's already done more than in 2 games against Stanford pretty much.

12-9 UCLA first media TO.

 

[nwhoopfan]

22-16 UCLA thru Q1. Charlisse has 11, took 7 1/2 minutes for any other Coug to score. 7 each for Osborne and Onyenwere.

 

[Tazmazz]

C’mon Cougs!

 

[nwhoopfan]

29-27 UCLA Q2 media TO.

Krystal got going now too.

Osborne leading everybody w/ 12.

 

[Tazmazz]

Pac12 Network does excel at one thing...best team of announcers and production doing WBB games of any conference by far. That’s about it though.

 

[Tazmazz]

Osborne has intangibles to go with skill

 

[nwhoopfan]

Cougs go up 33-29. UCLA taking turns launching bad 3s, running no offense to speak of for 4 or 5 possessions in a row. Onyenwere is out w/ 2 fouls and nobody other than Osborne can do anything for them.

 

[Shades]

The Cougs are up!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Tied at 35 at the half.

15 for Charlisse, 8 for Krystal.

14 for Osborne, 11 for Onyenwere.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Both teams are getting plenty from their Big 2, can other players step up? Murekatate had a nice stretch, getting good post position and converting. She has 6 on 3-5 shooting. Nobody other than the O's for UCLA made more than 1 bucket.

 

[Tazmazz]

Wash St needs Motuga to step up in 2nd half. Those two missed free throws at the end of half were big. They need her.

 

[Tazmazz]

Osborne is so valuable because she turns it up a notch in close games in the final minutes when you need her most.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Onyenwere picked up foul #3 a few minutes into Q3.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Another one of those games. After almost no FTs in the 1st half, not the refs are whistle happy and it's a FT shooting contest. Q3 is almost unwatchable, UGLY.

 

[nwhoopfan]

41-38 Cougs. At 6:12 of Q3 there has been exactly ONE made FG this half. The rest of the scoring is FTs.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Who woulda guessed Grace Sarver would be the Coug to step up? She's tied her career high w/ 9, I think all in Q3. Cougs up 8. WSU plays stingy D, but UCLA's offense has been putrid.

 

[nwhoopfan]

52-45 WSU thru Q3.

 

[nwhoopfan]

At one point UCLA was 4-8 behind the arc. Now they are 4-17.

 

[Tazmazz]

Grace Sarver scares me to death with the ball even though she has a season high point total.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Wow, I'm used to seeing UCLA relentlessly hit the O boards. Cougs have held them to 6, they are even in that department. That's probably the stat of the game.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Well dang, as soon as I type that the Bruins grab 3 O boards on 1 possession.
