Any question on a 1 seed?

That may be but I follow you guys pretty closely and she has been inconsistant all year.

Do you SEE her or just read box scores?

2.3 A/TO ratio and 9.7 ppg is pretty consistent.

Nneka is playing with a fire and a commitment level that wasn't always there in past years.

Nneka's commitment level has always been there, but I agree she's a lot more fiery on the court than in past years. I think that's a function of confidence in her game.

Agree. She is likely playing with more urgency because she is a Sr. She has improved every since year since she arrived at Stanford and her sister is following suit.

I can boxscore analyze with the best of them...lol.

Just going by what I see. Did you look at the 3 games prior to the Cal game?

I sit 3 rows behind our bench. I see plenty.

I'm sure you do. And numbers don't tell the entire story, but I see inconsistancy.

Cardfan, the PAC 10 tourney is an example of what I am talking about.

As the competition got harder her stats got worse.

Game 1 - Washington - 3-6, 0-2 on 3's, 8 points, 6 assists
Game 2 - Arizona State - 3-13, 0-3 on 3's, 6 points, 3 assists
Game 3 - California - 4-11, 1-5 on 3's, 9 points, 2 assists

geez, doggydaddy, give it a rest. Pac 12. not 10. Orrange stepped up today so we didn't need Toni, as did Nneka. Toni killed Cal last week with 26 pts last week. And as you well know, playing the pg is more than scoring. Her A/TO is incredible at 2.3 which helps us win.

I also don't care about the 3 game in 3 day format because we don't play that in NCAAs.

I do think UCONN deserves a #1 seed and I think Tennessee will be a #2 seed (as they should).

Where I would caution people is Stanford having an easy path assuming Kentucky/Penn State/Georgia end up in their bracket per Creme.

I know Kentucky has slid a bit in the last 8 games or so, but I think they are a dangerous team. Especially against teams that aren't familiar with them.

Stanford will be a #1 seed, yes and the O sisters are dynamite, but what Stanford lacks this season is a strong back court. Kentucky and Penn State's back courts could completely upend the Cardinal.

With all the upsets this far I am NOT overlooking anyone in the NCAA this year.

Danger lurks if you do.

KY is a mystery! Dangerous if the Hyde side of the team shows up, but in crunch time I doubt it. Their performance curve will not fit on a 74 inch wide screen! Just compare the 2 UT games. It is beyond bewildering and their fans must be utterly bewildered. I started the season rooting for them...not so much now.
