Probably gonna come up just a bit short. 93 points w/ 1 minute left and going deep into the bench.

That’s a nice weapon to have. You can beat any team on any given night, even an undefeated team like Tech. ;)

I think I heard the announcer say they were shooting 31% from 3 coming into the game. They've been playing possum all year. :rolleyes:

I watched a couple of their games and they looked nothing like this in terms of shooting the 3. Against Northern Iowa they were 7 of 23.

48 points from behind the arc. A coach couldn't ask for anything better.

I a sorry but after listening to their pure PR pregame hype where she touted how good this team was to unknowing fans and listeners, she is still spewing “koolaid” type drivel here like she really thinks this is a good team due to their SO overstated 11-0 record against #342 ranked schedule. As noted, this is not a good ISU team so Stollings is still delusional that her team will compete against TCU next game. A side note that the “leading shot blocker” in the NCAA, had ZERO blocks tonight while Liv had 7 yesterday. I wish someone, anyone that covers this team actually calls her out on her EXTREMELY SOFT schedule and ask why she really believes this team is good as there is no evidence they are or will be. Sorry Marcia but you’re a fraud.
 
I wonder if her new favorite 4 words in the dictionary are "O. VER. RA. TED"
 
I've said it before, but I don't really see the value in playing tons of marshmallows early in the season. It does nothing for your evaluations, it does not help players solve problems on the court, it does nothing for late game scenarios, it doesn't establish who are your big moment players on the team. Players don't get to learn from their sloppiness, their inattention, their lack of urgency, and players don't get to see how to work their sets against a determined, talented team. All it does is make teams overconfident and reinforce bad habits. You need to demonstrate to the players, "see, that's what I was talking about". Otherwise players often don't understand why you're harping on certain issues. It becomes, "What's coach upset about, we're winning by 30"?

It can also deflate a team's confidence. It's happened to Tennessee the last two seasons. When a team discovers they are not as good as they thought they were it can be very disappointing to them.

Disappointing and soul-crushing to their fan base as well. It's so unfortunate that the Tennessee fans have had to experience crushing disappointment.

How many WCBB teams have lost with a 29 pt lead going to the fourth?

A chance to see another "undefeated" team get blown out in the second half. Lexi Gordon appeared gassed at the end, and may be nursing an ankle sprain. Iowa State had all the answers and may never again duplicate their amazing shot percentages. Whatever, they'll always have that victory at TT.
 
I don't think I had ever seen a team hit their fist eight three point shots until last night.
 
I wonder if Texas Tech scheduled to make the post season even if that means WNIT. Lots of non conference wins and hope to get enough conference wins to get to .500. If they can get a couple of upsets over higher ranked teams and squeak into NCAA tourney then they are over the moon happy.
