Oregon St (7) @ Oregon (4) - 1/24/20

[Plebe]

Arizona beat ASU in Tempe to start conference play this year.

Oops. Should've said 3 of 4

 

[nwhoopfan]

Oregon ties it up.

Tudor started in place of Goodman. She continues to miss open 3's. My goodness their 3 point shooting has just completely abandoned them.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Taylor Jones is not intimidated. 10 points early.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Oregon back up 18-16. First lead since the first bucket.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Ionescu buries a 3 to end the quarter, 25-18. Is it too early to stick a fork in the Beavs? They HAVE to start hitting some 3s. Slocum 2-3, the rest of the team 0-5.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Jones and Slocum have all of OSU's points.

 

[nwhoopfan]

39-23 Oregon. Yep, this is gonna get ugly. Ionescu has 15.

 

[Mulder]

The house is rocking.

 

[nwhoopfan]

I didn't expect OSU to win. The start kinda suckered me. This is in danger of becoming unwatchable. Hopefully they can regroup in Corvallis on Sunday. This one is over. 42-23.

 

[nwhoopfan]

45-29 at halftime. Taylor Jones is a beast tonight, but she's getting no help from anybody else. She is leading all scorers w/ 17. UO 3 point shooting 5-8 OSU 2-11.

 

[DaBball]

OSU has assisted on all 13 shots. Jones is super good.

Oregon is just too good when they’re hitting threes.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Ionescu w/ 15, Sabally 10 and Chavez 9 off the bench (3-3 behind the arc).

 

[ochoopsfan]

UO defense against Taylor Jones, a freshman, not there. Not sure how UO handles tougher more experienced bigs in the Big Dance.

 

[DaBball]

Slocum should be pissed. Benched for no reason so we can watch Goodman stand there and dribble off her foot because she can’t pass Minyon Moore.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Whittled a 20 point deficit down to 11.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Slocum should be pissed. Benched for no reason so we can watch Goodman stand there and dribble off her foot because she can’t pass Minyon Moore.

Yeah, she has a serious case of over dribbling.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Felt like OSU was making a little headway, but Ionescu drills a 3 to end the quarter (did that in Q1 too) to put the lead right back to 16.

Rueck went w/ Simmons and Morris and they sparked a bit of a rally. Slocum has been on the bench for quite a while, Pivec too.

Don't think Oregon State is normally this flat. Their main contributers have all played under their normal quality game. Taylor Jones is efficient at least and makes the most of all her opportunities. No idea where her teammates are though (realizing Slocum is on the bench a lot for whatever reason).

 

[nwhoopfan]

Don't think Oregon State is normally this flat.

This is the new normal. Have you been watching them lately? Something ain't right w/ the team.

 

[nwhoopfan]

UO was up 21, but Slocum w/ a 4 point play.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Damn, 11-0 run by Beavs. Slocum w/ a 4 point and 3 point play on back to back possessions. 67-57, not quite over yet.

 

[DaBball]

Pretty impressed by the Beavs not quitting. Ionescu is just too good though.

You can't spot them a 20 point lead. Too little too late.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Got it down to 7, then Sabally w/ a buzzer beating 3.

 

[SimpleDawg]

This is the new normal. Have you been watching them lately? Something ain't right w/ the team.

What I'm seeing is they clearly have the ability to play in this game. They're less efficient than Oregon, however. And they have 2 starters with 0 points, and Pivec underwhelming, and they're still somehow in the game.

0-10 from 3 by Pivec and Tudor....... If they just get 1 of those to go from each and the game's going down to crunchtime with the Beavs having a real chance.
