Monday (3/25): NCAA 2nd round games

Yet Antonelli advocates for true neutral sites. They tried that once and the announcers were about the only ones there :p

Don't agree with Antonelli there.

This first round at home format is a great idea. It gives the teams that have earned a higher seed homecourt advantage for 2 games making a higher seed count for something. And it's better for attendance, there's less travelling, and it gives every round a different overall impression compared to the men where it seems like random location placing for all rounds.

R. Howard is gonna be special. Hope Mitchell can get her a good supporting cast next year.
 
I like Roy Philpott & Brooke Weisbrod on this MD-UCLA game. And who knew Brooke was quite the terror in her playing days? Apparently she used to get a LOT of technical fouls.
 
Turnovers are killing UCLA. Maryland is on a run spanning either side of halftime, up 2 now.
 
NC State lead is down to 3, at 44-41. Elissa Cunane to the FT line when play resumes.
 
Maryland on fire to start the half. Austin really runs well for her size.
 
Jackrabbits just tied it up after being down 5 in Q3.
 
I feel like NC State will pull away at some point, but KY's defense is bothering them.
 
Is that score correct? South Dakota State now leading Syracuse?

Yes...it has. State doing much better on the boards the last couple of minutes.
 
UCLA-Maryland is a good game, both teams really going at each other.

Dean has kind of shaky handles for a point. I've seen her lose her dribble a couple times w/ no or hardly any pressure from the defense.
 
Super-entertaining game at Syracuse. The Jacks went on a 13-0 run late in 3Q and now lead by 6.

I tell ya, this SDSU team is a joy to watch. All you folks who like fundamental, high-IQ basketball should be watching this.
 
Nice sequence there. Maryland gets away with a big shove in the back so they get an O board, then Mikesell on the drive was tied up. She came back down and then went back up with it for a layup. That HAS to be a jump ball or a travel, one or the other.
 
Syracuse turns up the pressure, gets a couple steals and ties the game up.

edit--up 2 now. That was a fast 8-0 run for the Orange.
 
NC State and Kentucky exchanged THREEs right before the 3rd quarter horn...Wolfpack up, 53-48.
 
BIG three by Kentucky to cut the lead to 5 going into the 4th

Should be a fun 4th quarter :)
 
UCLA-Maryland Q3 very good. Punch and counterpunch, no fear.1 point difference so far.
 
Syracuse turns up the pressure, gets a couple steals and ties the game up.

Wow, that's what live ball turnovers in the full court press will do. Syracuse scored 8 points in less than a minute and I don't think SDSU even got the ball past halfcourt in that sequence.
 
How is NC st staying competitive with all these injuries never thought they would be here
 
Kiara Leslie taking over in the 4th quarter...up to 22 points now. NC State up 58-48. Timeout Kentucky
 
UCLA had been doing a good job of keeping pace most of Q3 w/ a surging Maryland, but lost it a bit the last 60 seconds or so. And some serious home cookin' from the refs. 2 UCLA players got leveled in one sequence w/ no whistle.
 
What an awful call on Frasier

The girl clearly fell

It was a bad call, but Maryland has gotten away with hacking UCLA 3 or 4 other times w/ no call, so it's not even evened up.
