#6 Texas vs #2 Maryland - 3/28/21

Warren looks ok waving to the crowd

I wanted originally MD to win as TX got 0 chance against SC....if i have to guess SC will win by 15-20 points in the by far easiest win in the Elite 8

Are you crazy? Vic has beaten Dawn as many times as any active coach not named Geno if I'm not mistaken. : )

 

[JordyG]

If they don’t transfer.....

More facts.

 

[Carnac]

I'm shocked!!! I didn't see this one coming. I had this one completely wrong. I thought Maryland would run Texas out of the arena. Congratulations to Texas, Vic Schaefer and his team. Charli Collier showed up tonight. 16/11. Texas held the number 1 scoring team in the country to 30 points below their average.

Some good teams were sent home this weekend. Texas vs South Carolina on Tuesday. After this game, I wouldn't too quick to count Texas out vs SC. If they can beat Maryland, they can beat SC. Wouldn’t THAT be an upset?

 

[Dove]

That was a brutal second half to watch. We are spoiled.

 

[Blueballer]

That's why you play the games. So many of the talking heads had MD burning up the nets on the way to the Final 4.

 

[Gurleyman]

Collier had gigantic problems against Baylor vs Egbo, it’s not gonna be any better vs Boston

They should go big and have Collier on Saxton. Or double team a lot.

 

[Blueballer]

I'm not sure Collier is the one who should be interviewed.

Not with this team man. Maybe if they see each other next year.

Looking at Frese I think she really saw this as her big chance to squash all the doubters. Now she's just added to the chorus.

I don’t think Brenda is a bad coach even though we all love to take jabs at her but her teams on the biggest collapse under pressure. Just not mentally tough to push forward through adversity at times.

 

[UConnFanMSM]

Wow ..... was hoping that Maryland would win this one since I thought they'd perform better against SC.

 

[Hayven]

I was really looking forward to the SC - Maryland showdown

 

[DeeHusky]

I think Maryland got big headed and felt like Texas couldn’t beat them

 

[Vowelguy]

Brenda is more cheerleader than coach.

I dont think that's fair.

Did you see that stretch where MD was getting fast breaks on made baskets? Even Lobo was stunned by that. That doesn't happen organically; that's coaching & practice.

 

[SimpleDawg]

Even if he loses to Dawn, the fact that robbed an Elite 8 against a team lots of people thought could win the National Title has got to have Longhorn fans jumping up and down. And when you consider what they have coming in next year + possibly Jessika Carter.... WOW. They're gonna leave lots of teams in the dust soon.

SC knows how to defend the dribble drive. Looking forward to Collier vs Boston.

 

[bballnut90]

Man Texas had zero business winning this game, let alone staying competitive. Vic sure knows how to whip up some magic in March.

 

[Pastahusky98]

Let's face it, folks. Forget any media narrative that says "this team is too dominant" or something of the like. From here on out, the team that wants it more will win. Plain and simple.

 

[Sched234]

Wow

 

[SECbbfan24]

Top 5 upset all time?

Not even close. Texas is rebuilding but isn’t completely talentless, they have talent on that team.

 

[bballnut90]

Collier seems like a great leader per the interview

 

[JDuro]

Psh, upset? What upset? ?

 

[Dwilliams02]

Now I do think SC will beat Texas. But I don't think it'll be easy.... That game gonna be similar to this one but the score being switched.

 

[Gamecockfan77]

I really mean no offense especially to the Maryland fans (who I like) and I think it would have been a hell of a game with South Carolina, but where did the Maryland is awesome thing even come from?

 

[Sched234]

SC knows how to defend the dribble drive. Looking forward to Collier vs Boston.

If you’re a SC fan this was the best outcome possible. And that’s not to suggest that anything is for sure on Tuesday
