Arizona getting devastated by Stanford

[jaydee602]

Stanford had 21 turnovers & Arizona only had 6!
Stanford only made four 3 pointers & Arizona made 6.
Stanford only took 2 foul shots compared to Arizona's 18!
Stats can be deceiving!!

Baylor and South Carolina are kicking themselves after watching this

Why? They lost. They probably would have gotten their butts kicked as well. The message, paraphrasing Horace Greeley: “Go west, young girl, go west.”

 

[Centerstream]

It seems kinda odd to me that in the NC game, one team has 18 FTs and the other team has 2 (both "and 1s"). And the team with 18 was considered the "underdog".

 

[Centerstream]

Do you think Tara told Williams to do just that, or maybe Williams just did not pull off what she was told? The coach can tell them what to do, but the player has to execute.

Unless it's UConn, then it's Geno's fault.

So happy Arizona lost! And I’m not taking it back because this is how feel at the moment.

Me too so happy AZ lost and I will not apology for that ~~~

 

[the Q]

Then why was the ref signalling that the ball was kicked by Zona?

One ref called a foul. The first was up and they reported numbers to the table.

That last minute was just abysmal coaching by everyone.

Horrid job by both coaches down the stretch

That's the play called by AZ coach. Stanford had 3 players defending McDonald. Have her throw it underneath for a layup. And on previous play, Stanford dribbles the ball without even trying to take a shot for a shot clock violation. No wonder it took Stanford all those years to win another championship.

Big difference in winning or losing a poker game or a neighborhood ball game with some kids.... as opposed to a National Semifinal or Final.

Not so much.
Someone wins.
Someone loses.
Someone is gracious.
Someone sticks out the middle finger and shouts “ You!”
Real winners will tell you “ act like you’ve done it before,”
Arizona Coach->Classless.

[willtalk]

isn't it amazing how the team that beats your team in the semis always "sucks" in the finals...........I think the correct medical term is the "if onlys"..........

Well it is also easy to win in a game your are not playing in. 😉

Paige Bueckers named to Final Four all-tournament team. Stanford's Haley Jones was named the Most Outstanding Player.

Holly Rowe talking about Adia Barnes breastfeeding during halftime: “For those of you who think this is too much information, let’s normalize working mothers and all they have to do.”

 

[Stymie]

Psige=inconsequential honor.
Don’t believe me?
Ask her.

 

[jaydee602]

After her last shot, Aari McDonald was wondering, "Where is Dee Kantner when I need her?"

 

[UCTitleTown]

Not easy to do this, need lots of practices. You can try yourself...

Stay classy.

Arizona getting devastated by Stanford

Sounds like a huge blowout. Did Arizona even bother coming back on the court for the second half?

 

[cbraarj]

On that kick, they called a foul. That’s why it was Stanford ball

No foul with 2 min. 3 seconds left it was kicked out of bounds by Lexie Hull but they said out of bounds on Arizona. Refs couldn't look at replay until 2 minutes left. Replay showed off Stanford.

I think they did because luckily they didn't read my post..... ( I already admitted i erred in my rush to judgement and the foolishness of my post.

OTOH, Arizona got 18 free throw attempts and Stanford got 2. And half our starters spent a significant portion of their time on the bench w/ foul trouble on the basis of a few questionable calls. So it's easy to pick and choose what should or should not have been called. That was definitely a blown foul, but on the whole, I don't think the officiating decided that game.

Never said it did just described that play.

The OP was a day early and had the wrong 2 teams, but otherwise accurate.
