-- USC @ Arizona

I’m at the ASU-UCLA game right now. 11AM game with busloads of school kids. Plenty of loud UCLA fans here too. Looks like it will be a good, and low-scoring game (typical ASU). 8-7 UCLA 7 minutes in. Onyenwere is a real stud. Eckmark is just TOO skinny...

Do I need to make a separate thread for the Colonial? Or just fit it in here?
 
Fellow BYers, as a reminder to avoid an admin rath, if you want to post play by play activity, set up a new thread as “Cal vs. Utah” and have at it. This thread is for general score comments and other such tidbits. As I now have free Sling TV for 2 more days, I plan on watching all the PAC12 games and posting with our fine colleague @Plebe

The more the merrier! There's plenty of room in the party boat.

This is intended as a catch-all game thread for all of these games (and any others going on tonight). No need to create a separate thread for each game, imho.

Dang that's early. Mid morning tip times usually don't lead to quality play it seems like.

Planning on going to this one.
 
Tied at 44 after 3Q. You never know what will happen in the Pac 12. ASU rolling after a tough win on the road in Corvallis. UCLA reeling after 3 straight home losses. So the Devils should have an easy time back home in Tempe, right? Nope. UCLA getting a big boost from Lauren Miller off the bench w/ 14 points on 7-10 shooting. Ibis couldn't miss against OSU and scored 28, today she has 4 on 2-6 shooting. Maybe UCLA is doing a really good job of defending her.
 
Onyenwere is 2-14 from the floor. Yikes. ASU up 1 w/ under 4 minutes left.
 
Whoa. Did UCLA just beat Arizona State? Wow. HUGE win for the Bruins. This could get them just inside the bubble.
 
.-.
Is UCLA better on the road than at home? 3-1 in road games and 0-3 at home thus far in Pac 12. They've had a tough schedule, having already played Stanford, Cal, Oregon, Oregon St. and Arizona St. They split the season series w/ USC but have yet to see the other bottom feeders Colorado and the Washington schools.
 
What a great game, a bit sloppy at times but good. That hurt ASU a bit losing at home.

UCLA, like many other teams across the country, is such a mixed bag:
  • Lost @ Loyola Marymount.
  • Went 0-3 in the Virgin Islands, all in close games, vs. UNC, Kentucky and USF.
  • Lost at home to Indiana.
At that point I pretty much wrote them off. But since conference play started they won @ Cal and @ ASU. Who knows what to make of them.
 
ASU was within range of possibly getting a top-4 seed after beating OSU. Squandered with today's loss.

Still a long way off, but cant afford to lose to the lesser teams in the PAC.
 
DePaul has a 78-76 lead over Butler with 2:26 to play. A Butler player just got injured and had to be helped off the court.
 
Marquette crushed Xavier 90-44. Blockton became the first player in Marquette history, woman or man, to reach the 2000 point milestone.
 
.-.
Huh. Cal @ Utah is the only game being shown on TV in my area. Bears out to a 10-2 lead early. Is today gonna be full of unexpected results?
 
DePaul hangs on to beat Buter, 86-78. Chante Stonewall had 25 points.

I think I heard the announcers say that Butler has never beaten DePaul. Butler had a 10-point lead with 6:23 to play but were outscored 25-7 the rest of the way.
 
Utah starts two freshmen, Dre'Una Edwards and Dru Gylten, and brings a third in off the bench, Andrea Torres. Edwards is the frontrunner for Pac-12 FOY, but each of the three has been FOTW this year.

I think Edwards and Gylten are locks to make the conference all freshman team. I wonder if any team has ever had 3 Fr. get that honor?

Utah has caught fire and is up 20-16.

It's early but Colorado jumped out to a 16-8 lead over Stanford. Looks like the margin has narrowed a bit since, can't see that score holding up.
 
Surprising start at the other Mountain school. Colorado is leading Stanford 18-12 late in 1Q.

I'm struggling to think of many other big impact Fr. this year. Certainly Cate Reese at Arizona.

In Colonial Action...... Bad night for the NC schools.... an upset as Delaware knocked off UNC-Wilmington... and HuskyNan's FIghting Phoenix of Elon lost by one point to Towson State
 
Utah on a 27-10 run since a slow start. Various players knocking down 3's. Huff hasn't really done much so far but they're doing just fine.

Edwards has won FOTW 4 times. Gylten and Reese have won it twice. The other players who have one it once are:
  • Peanut Tuitele, Colorado
  • Lacie Hull, Stanford
  • Andrea Torres, Utah
 
Colorado is stretching their lead. A bit early for upset alert but I would not have picked that one to be a tightly contested game.

Utah now up 13. Huff only has 3. That's kinda scary for everybody else.

Maybe USC woke up last weekend. Up 8 and keeping McDonald under control so far.

Not much in the way of easy games.
 
Utah is hot form the arc, 5-9 so far. Out to a 13-point lead in 2Q. Gottlieb just called her 2nd timeout to stop the momentum.
