Games Jan. 13-19

Tulane did just about the exact same thing to SMU as they did to Washington earlier this season. I believe in Seattle they outscored UW 27-11 in the 4th quarter to steal a win. Tonight @ SMU they outscored the Mustangs 28-11 in Q4 for a 67-66 win. The Wave are 4-0 in AAC at this point.

Tulane seems to be maddeningly inconsistent every year.

Nicholls fell to 2-12 after losing to Northwestern State, 58-54. I am starting to think the Colonels won't be part of the NCAAT field this year!

You never know! They might peak just in time for the Southland tournament.

Apparently Indiana likes OT games. After their marathon game against Iowa over the weekend, they are playing another extra session against Northwestern.

Minnesota up 8 at halftime against Iowa. Seems pretty close to a must win game for the Gophers.

Did somebody make South Dakota mad? Crushing North Dakota St. 53-11 at halftime.

Rider and Marist are going to OT. Stella Johnson hit only 1 of 2 FTs with 5 seconds left and then Marist missed the potential game-winning layup.

Pitt is on the verge of its first ACC win at Clemson, up 4 now with 2:24 to play.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Indiana lost their second in a row.

Indiana lost their second in a row.

Second overtime loss in a row. Really got away from them. Led by double digits in 4Q and led by 5 in OT.

Minnesota surprisingly has an 11-point lead over Iowa playing without Pitts and both Bello sisters.

 

[Plebe]

Rider finishes on a 7-0 run to win in overtime at Marist.

The nation's leading scorer, Stella Johnson, hit her average with 28 points, but her teammates did all the scoring in overtime. Lea Favre finished with 24 points, and point guard Amanda Mobley hit a clutch 3 in OT.

Pitt is on the verge of its first ACC win at Clemson, up 4 now with 2:24 to play.

Nope. Lost by 8 in OT.

Iowa making a charge. Deficit down to 4 w/ about 3 minutes left.

74-73 Minnesota w/ 35 seconds left. Gophers were up by at least 11 at one point.

 

[nwhoopfan]

76-74 Iowa come back win.

Minny falls to 1-5 in conference.

edit--now ESPN is showing 76-75, but same outcome

 

[triaddukefan]

Wake Forest wins tonight vs UVA. 4 conference wins already... tied for 4th in the conference. All the tobacco road teams win ACC games on the same day.... can't remember the last time that happened.

Missouri St. has been living dangerous. Needed a miracle to pull off a win against Drake last weekend. Trailing Southern Illinois by 5 w/ around 4 minutes left tonight. Speaking of Drake, they are killing Indiana St.

Alexa Willard was fouled on a 3-pointer, and she sinks all 3 FTs to cut the lead to 1 with 16 points left.

She has 27, another good game for her.

Fouling a 3 point shooter is always frustrating....but up 4 w/ less than 30 seconds left?

 

[nwhoopfan]

Looks like SIU hit 1 of 2 FTs, then MSU tied it up.

edit--SIU wins 70-68. Lot of action in the last 14 seconds.

Jasmine Franklin got a putback with 4 seconds left to tie the game, then the Salukis won the game on a layup with about 1 second left.
