Can’t stand Fortner. She’s a master of stating the obvious only when she’s not completely wrong.

I’ve had the sound off. Has Fortner mentioned that Marquette won the 2nd half?
Expand ...
No but she kept insisting that Marquette was still in the game, down 15-20 in the 4th quarter

#50 basically said the same thing in the post game. Must be an ESPN directive for viewing numbers propaganda.
 
NC State/Maryland scheduled for a 2:15 pm tipoff. Would be awesome to have a Rockin' Reynolds the way the KFC Yum Center was loud and energetic. It would be only right for these two old WBB rivals.

Tenn - Oregon State end of Q1
2 fouls on G<umlaut u>lich.
Trying to figure out how to enter diacritics properly.
 
NC State leading Maryland, 12-6, 4:55 left 1st quarter. NC State 2 of 2 from THREE...but in a disturbing development, Maryland grabbing most of the rebounds.
 
The OSU guards look like they cant dribble and are afraid against the TN press which I admit is very good. Then when they break it, they don't attack. Probably switching to the women's tennis final.

Do you have a Mac or a PC? Diacritics are my jam.
 
Maybe the Oregon St. coach should have waited until AFTER they played TENN to bring his team to the WBB Hall Of Fame. That place must be loaded with TENN history and images. Maybe it has made them a little too much in awe of the program. They got off to a lousy start though settling down now.

End of 1st quarter...NC State leading Maryland, 18-11.

NC State shot 50% in the quarter on 7 of 14 shooting and holding Maryland to 20% on 3 of 15. Maryland converted 5 of 8 FT...and surprisingly, NC State outrebounding the Terrapins 11-8.

Kiara Leslie and Kayla Ealey have 5 points each for NC State. Ieshia Small leads Maryland with 5 points off the bench.
 
It annoys me that all the 1 or 2 seeds today have an individual time slot, and
the two 4/5 games and a 3/6 game which figure to be more competitive, are
all bunched in one time slot. I don't understand ESPN's rationale in continuing
to feature the highest seeded teams in noncompetitive games.

Yep. Tough call between Oregon St./Tenn, DePaul/A&M and the finals at Indian Wells. Decided for now on DePaul/A&M. Blue Demons 24-14 with 8 to go 2nd quarter. Yoohoo
 
Okay which first half was more exciting, UConn - SF or OSU - Tenn. I'll take yesterday's game over the one on right now. Watching paint dry is more exciting.
 
Leslie with a steal and took it to the hole...then she does it again and NC State up 24-13. Timeout Maryland...8:40 left 2nd quarter.

I did not take into account the ineptness of TN. Letting OSU back. OSU 24 TN 23

Edit Rennia Davis hits buzzer beating 3pt shot for 26-24 lead at half. TN intrinsically can't shoot.

If Princeton didn't do it, at least NC State....
 
Don't underestimate the Tenn Helter Skelter defense in the last 5 minutes of a game. Saved a few games when DD was their fearless leader. A strategy roughly equivalent to St. Francis: let chaos reign. BUT this is what Tenn does, they unravel.

wish they had Holly miked up. :eek:

Did you enjoy the first halves of the Baylor/Grambling game or the MSU/Nicholls game?
By the way, Tenn/ OSU is a competitive game. You don't enjoy it?
 
DePaul really not playing that well, but up 38-27.
