Message: [QUOTE="dabears17, post: 4498479, member: 10508"] [USER=8141]@newfrontier[/USER] I was focused more on people saying UCLA is over-ranked when they just have two loses, one to South Carolina. It looks like Timea hasn't played in any games and is still injured? I can't seem to find any recent news and don't see her in the season stats. UCLA is a dangerous team even when shorthanded, so it was an impressive win by Oregon State. As I said in another post, the Oregon roadtrip always makes me nervous. NCAA selection committee allows injuries to be taken into account when ranking and seeding teams. Saying that UCLA shouldn't be penalized for a loss that one of their starters missed part of the game doesn't take away from Oregon State's win. I have a ton of respect for what Scott has done with Oregon State. He took a program that was in bad shape and quickly made them relevant again. I was at the 2016 Final Four and was rooting for the two teams wearing Orange. I've been to two women's games at Gill. I still remember the 2007 game where Wiggins didn't dress to rest a sore ankle but got dressed during halftime and had to play ~8 minutes in the second half for Stanford to win. She only scored 3 points, but it was with Stanford only up 50-46 and sparked a 10-3 run by Stanford. I'm hopeful that Timea gets to play soon and puts together impressive enough stats that if Oregon State is still on bubble on Selection Sunday, they take her injury into account and give them a bid. Hypotheticals don't count until players are back and playing. [/QUOTE]
