ND vs Stanford Game Thread

[bags27]

Is it me, or do most other teams not know how to use the glass as well as UConn or know how to make a layup when contested as well as Kia, Gabby, KLS or Napheesa?

And Tara can't use the cup.

 

[connie]

Holy crap! Two point game with a little more than five minutes to go!

 

[MilliniumPrince]

Stanford's interior Defense is terrible. Gabby and Phessa will destroy them. But TV is a far superior coach in comparison to MM.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

This is a good game

 

[uconnever]

I want Stanford to win but what a terrible call on Young

 

[Blue Huskie]

Stanford is recognizing the younger ND players and driving on them 1 on 1. It is far more likely the refs will call a foul on them than the older players. Sad but true. (Or it could be dumb luck)

 

[Blue Huskie]

ND still really sells their falls to the ground. And Allen gets a LOT of calls.

ND gets lots of calls

 

[connie]

This is a great game! One point lead for Stanford with a minute 12 left and the Irish on the line.

 

[connie]

75 to 74, Irish. 35.4 seconds left.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

ND gets lots of calls

I don't understand how Arike O isn't called for an offense foul EVERYTIME she drives in lane

 

[Los24]

Wow what a great game. One point difference with 15 seconds left and trailing team down by 1...

 

[connie]

Holy crap! Stanford up by one and 12 seconds left

 

[Blue Huskie]

WOW - This is probably going to be the closest of all the final 8 games!

 

[Centerstream]

Tired of ref reviews...

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Tired of ref reviews...

Yes but they should want to get it correct.

 

[LETTERL]

This game deserves to go to OT. Sadly, with the one-point differential, that might not happen.

 

[uconnever]

Last play and McGraw is listening to an asst draw up a play

 

[HoopsFan21]

Stanford wins it 76-75

 

[Sonny44]

Arike is ballin.....but is always playing one on one. Stanfords structure gives us problems. So If ND wins, I expect to see them make it to the title game.

Dream on pal.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[HuskyNan]

What a game! Too bad someone had to lose.

 

[mntncougar]

just turned it on for the last play, and I echo, YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

 

[connie]

Oh my God! Blocked on the final play and Stanford goes to the final four! Notre Dame goes down!

 

[Tenspro2002]

Wow I am thrilled to have been wrong.

I thought this game was over when ND started their run, and that looked to be the case when it was a 15-point game around halftime.

Credit Stanford for turning things around on offense and making stops when they had to.

I was certain the refs would call a foul on that last possession.

If we ultimately face Stanford, we're going to have to defend the perimeter a hell of a lot better than ND did.

 

[JellyBean]

Man. ND has to be heartbroken. Holy cow. Two teams played well. Great game.

 

[j66kicker]

Mr. Samuelson - get ready for the Lou vs. Karlie NC game!

I would not want to play Stanford. Giving Tara a week to prepare for us is scary.

 

[dbmill]

So the Stanford band gets to go to the final four. I've been to all but two final fours since 1996, and I always look forward to seeing them.
