Message: [QUOTE="SimpleDawg, post: 2944310, member: 9267"] Sabally is an essential piece for you guys for sure and definitely a great addition to your lineup. I also like your freshman Taylor Chavez a lot, she moves smooth down the court. Ruthy Hebard shoots a high percentage, and has always been that reliable for Oregon, but McCowan and Danberry are #1 and #4 in the SEC in scoring percentage, both over 60%. Chloe Bibby has a 3-point percentage of 57.9%, impressive like Ionescu's, though I do think at this point Ionescu is a more proven 3-point threat because she's taken a lot more shots than Bibby. I also think that Jordan Danberry, who barely played last time, is a far better player now, and will be on Ionescu like a flyfish. Probably an even tougher defense on Ionescu this time. Also, I think Mississippi State has the advantage in depth. We have a good sub for every starter that we have. And will look to keep McCowan's legs fresh by allowing Howard and Carter to take some pressure off - Howard can rebound in McCowan's absence, and Carter can block shots. I do think that an aspect Oregon is better at is free-throw shooting which could matter. I do agree that Oregon is better than Texas, but we'll probably play differently against them. I think the Texas game was mostly won on gameplan rather than them simply being a far inferior opponent; and Danberry and Holmes being way better against main competition than some expected. I wish Oregon the best of luck in this game, and I'm aware of their talent. But, Bulldogs all the way. ... [/QUOTE]
