Who will win this game?

Ridiculous charging call against Lexie. Defender is back peddling and just fell down, no contact AT ALL. Takes away a bucket. Refs suck.
 
Jones follow up w/ an and-1. One of her better scoring games in a while.
 
I think for Jones, having that outside shot is huge. Means that defenses can’t slack off her and defend her drive which has led to turnovers. Jones has been pulled for being turnover prone before.
 
Was that Williams' family? She is an outlier, they are all...large. Her much younger siblings look like they are almost as big as her.
 
Mack just got her first block of the game, even harder to believe then her lack of scoring. 6 pts/2 reb, she's just been shut down in every way.
 
.-.
Lead was 20, down to 12. Put Brink back in the game Tara.
 
Uh oh, Williams just hobbled off the court.

Now the lead is 10. Come on Stanford, finish off the game.
 
Card have not cooled off behind the line yet, now 13-19.
 
61-50 thru Q3. Really bad end of the quarter for Stanford.
 
I have to say, I credit Oklahoma State for being a lot better than I thought they'd be this season. I wouldn't have projected them as even making the tournament after losing Vivian Gray to transfer. Natasha Mack is a force and a legit All-American.

I also pretty much gave up on them early in the season when they had a completely horrendous collapse down the stretch against Alabama, one of the most wretched lessons on How to Lose a Huge Lead I've ever seen.

I'm impressed how pesky they've been despite Mack struggling mightily.
 
Oh good Kiana is back.

Huh, I must've posted in the wrong thread. She limped off the floor at some point.
 
Lead down to 9.

Not impressed w/ Stanford tonight. Lost focus numerous times throughout the game.
 
Stanford should shoot their FTs behind the 3 point line. They'd have a better chance of hitting them. :rolleyes:
 
73-62 final. Stanford gets a "meh" for this performance. Gonna take a lot more than this to realize the ultimate goal of winning a Championship.

Survive and advance is all I have to say about tonight. I’m not sure where things went wrong after going up big, but disappointed to see OK State back in the game in the 4th.

Missouri State will be dangerous if they survive the power from the Horizon, Wright State.
 
Jones game high 17, Williams 13, Wilson 11 (all in the first half), Brink 12 pts/9 reb/5 blocks.

14 for Notoa, 13 pts/10 reb for Mack, 12 for Keys.
 
I guess Stanford finally did cool off, missed their last 6 3's to finish 13-25. You'll take that any time, but the 6-12 FT shooting is really poor.

On that side note, I'm disappointed that Wright State has to go up against a fellow mid-major, one of the very few (along with BYU and Belmont) left in the tournament. But that's a topic for another thread!

Congrats to the Card. Just win baby. I knew it boded well for the Trees when I saw a huge Stanford flag waving outside a lovely home in the Houston Heights as I was driving this afternoon.

When the bracket was announced, I strongly believed that OSU was under-seeded. They finished 3rd in the Big 12, and made the conference tourney semi-finals. Perhaps their non-conference schedule really hurt them. Regardless, the had a great showing in their two NCAA tourney games.
 
Survive and advance. Winning ugly is still winning. But Tara will not win another championship if her squad can't put together four good quarters in the same game. Boy does this team like to let up on the gas pedal as soon as it sees its opponent in the rear view mirror! And we will only go as far as Kiana's legs can carry her. All the fingers crossed that that is four more games...
