Baylor @ Texas - 2/19/18

[polarbytes]

How did Texas stay with us? They can't shoot! Baylor is big but except for Wallace and one other girl, slow.

Baylor has enough scoring options to cause any team problems. If Brown gets the ball down low, she's almost automatic. Baylor has only taken 3 Three point shots and missed all three. IMO to beat Baylor you have to be hitting your outside shots and keep the ball out of Kalani Brown's hands.

Texas is 2-9 on three point shooting for 22%.

Baylor is owning the boards.

 

[SCspur]

They have her nick name listed on the official roster? That would be highly irregular.

Well LeLe Grissett is listed as her nickname on SC's roster but her actual name is Elisia.

They shot that night. 43% - probably their high for the year LOL

Texas should be leading this game since Kalani Brown went to the bench. Too many empty possessions with a couple of bad turn overs.

Texas needs to get a lead while Brown is on the bench if they have any hope of winning.

 

[Blueballer]

Actually they are shooting 47% tonight. Getting killed on boards though.

The officiating is terrible.... standing still with your arms straight up is not a foul

 

[SCspur]

Not sure if Texas watched the film of the Baylor v. Miss St game last year but the key to stopping Wallace is applying tons of pressure. Morgan William did so and Wallace had 8 TO's. If Texas can do so I think they have a chance with Brown on the bench.

 

[DefenseBB]

Holmes is now playing great team ball with some very good passes down low!

 

[Centerstream]

And to the other extreme, they are not calling obvious fouls...

 

[SCspur]

I mean it's crystal clear Baylor wants all their plays to go through Wallace. Where's the D?!?!

 

[ncteacher]

That Wallace player is pretty impressive.

 

[SCspur]

The fact that Cohen was an All-State performer in the state of SC and ended up in Texas really makes me sick to my stomach.

 

[SCspur]

Wow what a way to end the quarter for both squads.

 

[Wbbfan1]

Texas will never get the opportunity like they did tonight in the 3rd quarter. Kalani Brown sits for most of the 3rd quarter and Baylor builds a lead after Texas went on a small run to get within one point of Baylor. Baylor ends the 3rd quarter on a 12-4 run.

I think this is the year that Baylor gets to the final four. Kim Mulkey can sub anybody in and they’re still able to compete. There have been many games where either Cox or Brown has been on the bench for foul trouble and they won them all. Cohen matters so much; she is the x-factor! The two freshmen Morris and Richards aren’t big scorers, but they affect the game very well.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Could explain why she prefers “Juicy”.

Maybe she’s into Couture.

TX is not in the same zip code as Baylor. Pencil them into the FF most likely against Miss St. I bet we will get ND on our side.

We can’t pencil them in as a #1 seed?

How did Dawn miss her?

 

[MilfordHusky]

I get the distinct feeling that Baylor is a tough matchup for Texas, is a better team, is better coached, or some of all of these.

It would be nice if the loser of ND/Louisville goes onto the 2 line but the committee may beg to differ.

 

[SCspur]

How did Dawn miss her?

She actually wasn't highly rated out of HS and that was the year we got A'ja and Jatarie, so essentially there wasn't really room.

 

[Wbbfan1]

At least Texas is not giving up. However, can't shoot 10-17 on the Free Throw line if you hope to pull off the upset. Texas had their chance in the 3rd quarter and didn't take advantage of Kalani Brown on the bench.

 

[Bama fan]

Who names their kid Juicy?

Apparently, Mr and Mrs Landrum do. Apparently!
