Message: [QUOTE="msf22b, post: 2119304, member: 656"] Polls are polls but toughness and hard wins are what count now. Maryland may have been an overrated team (not by the NCAA) But they're gone, replaced by a tough, young squad that shows no fear. Re-watching yesterday's the first half confirms many of UC's conclusions. It was a tight game with a dangerous opponent; a few more of UCLA's first half shots go in and its a real nail-biter. Not our best on either end of the court, but a pretty tight D in the 2nd quarter; wonderful play by Gabby, Napheesa and Saniya late settled it. There really is increasing parity bur next season we take a talent and depth jump into unknown realms. Still, there is a lot of good BB and better coaching about and the era of 40-point wins may be finally coming to a close, to be replaced by good, hard-nosed BB. [/QUOTE]
