Elite 8

Hey, my Horns just broke 40! Woohoo.

The game looks to be in track to beat the Duke-UNC score. LET'S GO!!!!!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Her stat line isn't eye popping, but in my view Oldacre has had a really big impact in the 2nd half.

edit--and then she comes up with a huge play

 

[Vowelguy]

Is Vic gonna need to call a timeout to rest his team after this offensive explosion?

 

[Vowelguy]

TEXAS HAS SCORED 7 PTS IN 2 MINUTES!!!!!

 

[azfan]

Do I hear Dandy Don . . . .

 

[nwhoopfan]

Prince fouled out, but did almost nothing all game.

 

[Vowelguy]

Gotta get in the way back machine, Taylor Jones started her career at OSU.

Oh, so not last year's abandonment.

 

[Stagnant]

Sedona is definitely dropping out of the first round with this performance.

Finally. TCU is tired. Both teams played hard sweet sixteen games. Texas played more players. Texas used to the physicality. TCU not so much.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Oh, so not last year's abandonment.

Right.

For Stanford I got Iriafen and Emma-Nnopu, but I'm missing one.

Ugh. Van Lith. She is one Hornec Frog who does not get tired.

 

[dabears17]

[Txhoopsalot]

Oops. I got too excited. Started actlng like I was on a game thread on a Texas board. Sorry.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Betts

I'm gonna excuse myself out of the room for a minute due to embarrassment.

 

[Vowelguy]

#1 seeds across the M&W brackets: 7-0
hopefully that streak ends in 2 hours

 

[nwhoopfan]

Texas defense was smothering, but TCU was just snake bit. So many shots rimmed out. Hoop didn't want it. 27% overall and 20% from 3.

Congrats to the Horns. I was wondering if Vic was ever gonna get them to the Final 4. Answered that question.

 

[baggerbob]

But can they break 54?

Texas getting in the Final Four will set the women's game back 40 years. His teams foul on every possession down the floor.
He figures the refs can't call everything, so he teaches bump and grab defense.
The head of the women's association needs to see to it that next year that type of defense is completely taken out of the game.
The Detroit Piston teams of the 1980's almost destroyed the NBA. Basketball is supposed to be a freeflowing game and not a rockfight.

I don’t normally watch post-game interviews, but tonight I was waiting for the UConn game. I really enjoyed Booker and Harmon. They obviously love the game and each other.

Harmon's emotions got me a little teary eyed. She's been the heart of that team since the day she stepped on campus. Glad to see her make the Final Four.

UConn over USC - “Put out the lights, the party’s over” …. What a disappointment to not see Juju in this game.

No, I will thank you for your homeric loyalty to the good guys. Let's just forget all about that sad chapter...

Maybe it's the recency bias, but I firmly believe Kiki Iriah-FEN's draft stock would be higher today if she finished her collegiate career in cardinal red. She's had so many forgettable shooting nights this season in a way I just can't recall once last season. A little sad to see it, to be honest.

I can’t disagree. I had not seen a lot of Iriafen before last year’s tournament. She seemed like a revelation. This season I have found myself wondering. Did she just play over her head when Stanford needed her in the tournament last year? Was it Stanford’s system making her look better than she is? I look forward to seeing how she does as a pro.

 

[Stagnant]

I think you are right. Iriafen was number two on most draft boards before the season started. And I think she is 4th or 5th at best now. I would take someone like Sonia Citron over her if it were up to me.

 

[Stagnant]

UConn -8.5 over UCLA? The number one overall seed? That seems like way too many points.

 

[nwhoopfan]

I've long thought Rayah Marshall is much better than what she has shown in college. Had a good tournament. She might be one of those that is a better pro than college player.

She was a problem. Outstanding from start to finish.

South Carolina is the same way IMO.
