Game of the week. No TV?

We don't know how good anybody in the PAC really is, but these are definitely two talented teams.

if anyone doesn't have pac 12 network. Download mobdro. It's an app you have to sideload. It has all pac 12 regional channels.

I think Stanford is still the team to beat. At their best they look better than anyone else in the country IMO. Teams are lacking cohesion due to restricted scheduling and covid.

 

[visitingcock]

None of these PAC games are televised?

The conference commissioner should be fired! Oops, wait a minute . . .

Seriously, why play on Fridays night if you can't televise?

 

[nwhoopfan]

I know the Pac 12 Network gets bashed a lot...but I don't have SEC, ACC or Big 10 Networks w/ my cable package, so I can't watch all y'alls games either. I don't think it's exclusively a Pac 12 problem.

As far as whether Stanford is the best team in the country or not, I don't have the answer. But I watched UConn and Louisville last night and neither looked anywhere close to great. Maybe chalk it up to this covid mess, but we seem to have a clear shortage of dominant teams this season.

I must be living a charmed life. I have all those networks on my cable system; the Pac 12 Network was added last season. Lots of WCBB games to choose from. Plus, CBS Sports often shows some of the non-Power 5 games, too.

Not to rub it in...but I'll get back from bowling tonight around 9:30, and will give me long enough to take the dog out, fix a bowl of popcorn, grab a soda from the fridge and sit down for Stanford/UCLA.

I used to have BTN and CBSSN. We switched cable providers and lost both of those, as well as ESPNU and FS2. And Pac 12 Oregon. I can log in and stream anything that's on any of the Pac 12 Networks or ESPN family, but they've moved a lot of stuff to ESPN+ and I don't have that.

 

[Lorcan]

Yeah. It's definitely not easy to have access to them all. I'd say Pac-12 was the hardest one for me to get, but I managed. It's Stanford after all.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Can we please get one good Pac 12 game today? The rest have been stinkers.

You can pay for ESPN+. It's not expensive and you can cancel when the season is over. I do it every year.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Yes! This game is outstanding right out of the gate. 11-8 Card about 3 minutes in.

 

[nwhoopfan]

UCLA bombing away from 3 and Stanford using precise passing to get layups. Some pretty basketball. I almost forgot what that looks like.

 

[LETTERL]

This game shaping up exactly as I had hoped. 13-13 at the 1Q media timeout.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Tied at 13 at the first media TO.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Stanford is going small. Prechtel w/ both Hulls, Williams and Wilson.

edit--I gotta say I don't love this lineup. Why Belibi and Jones both out? Brink picked up an instant foul like usual and went promptly back to the bench.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Jones 3-3 from the floor but just picked up her 2nd foul and will be sitting for quite a while.

 

[LETTERL]

Good response from Stanford.

 

[nwhoopfan]

20-15 Stanford thru Q1. Huge difference in FG% (64-24), UCLA keeping in it w/ 3's and O boards.

 

[LETTERL]

Chou hasn't been much of a factor yet for UCLA.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Stanford picking up cheap fouls on screens. Belibi has 2 fouls now as well.

Chou just tied it up w/ a 3.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Has Tara lost confidence in Brink, or is she saving her for the 2nd half? W/ Belibi and Jones both in foul trouble Brink is still out, has only played 2 minutes.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Never mind, Brink in and really lucky she didn't just get hit with another foul.

Onyenwere started 0-7 but has hit two in a row.

UCLA up 3. 6 of their 9 FG are behind the arc.

 

[nwhoopfan]

This is just so strange. UCLA is 6-10 from deep and 3-15 inside the arc. Really shouldn't be in this game but they are up 1.

 

[LETTERL]

Fouls racking up for Stanford.
