Thanks Shades. Forgot about this one. Very interested to see if TX cleaned stuff up.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Could be a very competitive game between 2 athletic teams.

 

[eebmg]

10-2 FSU. Remember the Alamo.

 

[MilfordHusky]

10-2 FSU. Remember the Alamo.

FSU is makining a lot of shots now, but they are also beating Texas downcourt. Was Texas VERY overrated? We'll see in 36 more minutes.

Florida State races out to an early 10-2 lead in the first 2 minutes of the game. Karen Aston calls timeout.

Thanks Shades. Forgot about this one. Very interested to see if TX cleaned stuff up.

The early indication is: Absolutely not.

We already know they were very overrated by the way they played against Tennessee.

 

[MilfordHusky]

17-8. FSU is shooting 7-7.

 

[MilfordHusky]

FSU has 20 points in just over 4 minutes. Yikes!

 

[SCspur]

Texas heating up now.

 

[eebmg]

Texas heating up now.

Tied up 23--23 and they actually are inbounding,

 

[Plebe]

Well, Texas is hitting shots.

TX leads 26-23 at end of 1Q.

That's almost as many points as they scored in the entire first half at Tennessee.

 

[MilfordHusky]

This looks as exciting as last year's great game.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

If there is no transition both teams display very static offenses.

 

[eebmg]

Rebellah Boothe in and she does not lack confidence.

Edit. Well, that was quick. Aston saw enough of her chucking.

 

[stwainfan]

Good to see McCarty back today.

Edit. Well, that was quick. Aston saw enough of her chucking.

Not sure why she just hangs around on the perimeter when she's the biggest player on the floor.

 

[huskeynut]

Good observation by announcers on Texas' lack of half court offense. Do they teach setting screens and pick and roll at Texas?

 

[eebmg]

Not sure why she just hangs around on the perimeter when she's the biggest player on the floor.

She's back in now. Good Offensive rebound and putback. Then she takes a jumper clanging off the rim and Aston pulls her out.

 

[Plebe]

I feel weird watching Texas today because I'm still sore at them for laying such a stinky egg at Tennessee. But it's good to see them playing a bit better today and at least doing things like inbounding the ball correctly.

 

[JordyG]

I finally get to turn on the game at the beginning of the 2nd half and watched Atkins get clear after the team botches 1 screen and then Atkins falls on the 2nd. They then run a ladder screen and she scores on the jumper inside the arc. Things and patience they never demonstrated against Tennessee.

 

[JordyG]

McCarty suddenly has found that missing jumper that she lost in Rocky Top.

 

[SCspur]

I really like AJ Alix game

 

[Plebe]

Caron-Goudreau for Texas just feels like a catastrophe waiting to happen.

At least she ditched the Princess Lea look.
