#7 Northwestern vs #2 Louisville - 3/24/21

[Baylor1994]

Jeff Walz will be processing his team this off-season and hitting the transfer portal. I can see it now....

It seems like they have like 10 thousand players on their team lol aren’t they only losing Dana evans and adding a couple of recruits?

 

[Kaizen]

Jordan Hamilton scored 12 pts in 1st Q but zero in 2nd Q.

I have to admit I was not overall impressed by the Big10 this year because of lack of defense and mediocre scoring (Maryland and Utah excluded). I might have been wrong.

I think I like scoring of the dribble better than scoring off the bounce. I guess we now bounce the ball and not dribble it.

When did Utah join the B1G?

And when did they become a high scoring team? Last I knew they were near the cellar in the Pac 12.

Evans: 3-12, 1-6 from three, 8 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist

NW picking apart the double team on the primary ball handler at the top of the key. Louisville not making much headway, 40-28 midway thru Q3. I've been fairly unimpressed w/ Louisville in general this year, but holy cow this is a poor showing.

She had some magic earlier in the season, but I didn't like what I saw from her in the 1st round at all. I didn't watch, but apparently she was off all thru the ACC tourney.

 

[Shades]

40-28 NW at third media break

Not sure Walz scouted NW very well.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Louisville beat two ranked teams all year; one DePaul which turned out not to be a ranked team, and also Syracuse which was 23rd at the time and maybe not a ranked team either.

Just think what she'd have if Balogun and Dixon had stayed after the coaching change instead of transferring to Louisville.

But the officials seem to be helping with some of the fouls being called against NW. One was a clean block and the young lady got called for a foul. Some of these officials seem to be calling them like they perceived that it was a foul before the player even started to jump.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Here comes Louisville. Lead down to 5.

The dreaded anticipation call. I hate that.

 

[HuskyNan]

How much time left?

 

[nwhoopfan]

40-37

 

[nwhoopfan]

How much time left?

2:28 in Q3

 

[LETTERL]

Little Mo has switched to Louisville. Northwestern has scored 15 points in the last 17 minutes of game time.

 

[dtbtbtb]

NW are offense challenged so Louisville is back and now we are having a game

 

[SECbbfan24]

Louisville knocking down shots now

momentum swing

 

[nwhoopfan]

Lost in all the other chatter, Pulliam has 1 point and is 0-7 from the field. 2nd leading scorer for NW I think? Some of her misses have been really terrible shots.

 

[Baylor1994]

Wow if northwestern blows the 18 point lead. pulliam has to get going she’s 0-7. Stop taking stupid contested shots
