Monday night's games (ND, FSU, Bay, Stan)

[Vowelguy]

Holmes 2 straight misses inside on consecutive possessions. Tie game.

Inside but not easy shots.

"How to blow a lead in 3 easy lessons" by Texas.

Baylor & TX tied at 76, 1:17 left. Baylor has all the momentum.

Texas looking like the Atlanta Hawks.

 

[JordyG]

Holmes on the 3 time down scores inside.

 

[BroadwayVa]

My first extended look at Cox now that she's worked her way into the starting lineup. She's mighty impressive in body control and decision making for a freshman. But by 1/2 step she's the lowest player on the court. Not bad speed at all, but just a touch slower and it's going to cost her.

I didn't see it so---is she physically slower or--has to think a bit before moving- (frosh tend to slow themselves by not reacting)

 

[j66kicker]

TX shooting FTs, up 2 with 30 sec left.

 

[JordyG]

I don't think speed is Cox's problem. Twice this year I've seen her go end to end for layups.

Maybe, just maybe, Texas is coming out of their 4th Qtr coma and playing basketball in this last minute.

Blow a lead? Baylor hit some big shots.

 

[TitleTown]

3 key factors in the Baylor/Texas game:

Stamina- Texas is getting tired down the stretch.
Coaching- Some very suspect decisions by Austin.
Lang- Lang has been absolutely horrendous on both ends.

 

[JordyG]

28.9 left. Holmes calmly hits 2 FT's. Texas by 4. Go Texas. Just wait until Aston gets them at home.

 

[Plebe]

Wow, Joyner Holmes with the huge plays. Gets UT the lead on a tough drive and then gets a huge rebound and 2 free throws.

 

[TitleTown]

Great call on the illegal screen call on Brown. Her feet were not set.

Bags, she doesn't start. Nina Davis was on the bench to start the second half is all. Holmes looks better but needs to learn to pass and use the give and go.

 

[JordyG]

Brown misses 2 FT's with 15 secs let. Texas by 6.

 

[JordyG]

Texas 85-79. Yes Aston. Texas won wire to wire.

 

[Plebe]

WOW. Texas looked on the verge of being buried in the 4th quarter momentum change, and then they managed a final push in the last couple minutes. Huge win.

 

[calpedaler]

Is Mompremier injured?

 

[Vowelguy]

Longhorns do it. On the road.
Given that most thought Baylor was a clear #2, what does that say about Texas , which has now won 17 in a row.

 

[j66kicker]

Is Mompremier injured?

I believe she has a foot injury, expected back soon

 

[Plebe]

Is Mompremier injured?

Yes, ankle injury.

 

[oldude]

Big hurdle for TX as they haven't beaten Baylor in 14 games. The loss by Baylor likely assures the Huskies the #1 overall seed in the NCAA tournament regardless of what happens on Feb 13.

Ankle injury.

Charlie Creme in today's article said that UConn would be #1 overall regardless of what happened Feb. 13, and that was before Baylor lost.
