Bad, bad foul there by KU. If you're going to foul, hold EDD's arms down.

The thing that is really noticeable while watching these two teams is just the level of intensity. I know that's hard to quantify, but watching UConn it almost makes you take for granted how hard the players go every possession. Diving for loose balls, helpside defense, traps, rebounds, blocking out...and it's every time down the floor. KU and UD have both had stretches where they play hard, but it's definitely not a sustained effort like UConn gives.

Kansas has to try to spread the floor so more to give the guards more driving room.

And that's why teams like K-State feel like the run into a buzz saw the first time they play UConn.

EDD is not a player you want to foul. It's like giving away points.

If only? You realize we went 114-2 and won 2 National Titles in the 3 years she would have been here? If only. No wonder Geno is losing his mind lol.

especially not weak fouls that don't really impede the shot or make her think twice about anything.

I hope EDD and UD win just because I think it would focus more attention on the women's tournament, which isn't a bad thing. I don't think they can beat Tennessee, because Tennessee has much better athletes than KU. But then again, who knows? Tennessee has lost to teams much worse than UD this season.

Why is ESPN showing the blowout by Duke but not the close game between LSU/Penn St or OU/SJU????j

Makes no sense to me at all!

2009 lineup- Renee, Kalana, Maya, EDD, Tina. That really would have been obnoxious.

I think Penn State is going to be a difficult matchup for us. I think they could give us a good game.

Goodrich is showing out tonight. Good for her- not like KU gets much national coverage either.
