"Showdown on the Rez": #23 Arizona State vs. #4 Baylor

[BigBird]

Eric Friede, Kara & Lobo. Yes, a nice combination.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Im actually suprised Mulkey agreed to play a ranked team on the road in the non conference.

 

[Vowelguy]

I love Kim's interviews. She's entertaining.

 

[ochoopsfan]

I dont recall ASU, shooting so many three's in past years. Let alone they are making them.

 

[UCBaller2012]

The key will be for ASU to keep their poise in the second half. Baylor will make some runs.

She definitely has the personality to match the outfits

 

[Plebe]

That was a nearly disastrous first half for Baylor, but NaLyssa Smith almost singlehandedly kept them in striking distance. She is going to be an absolute star.

 

[Charliebball]

wow ..................forgot that Eckmark had gotten into serious shape last year...................she's almost unrecognizable...............looks quicker then what I remember when she was at UConn...................

 

[Charliebball]

I expect Baylor to take this game over in the second half once Arizona State starts missing their threes.................if they don't stop making them that's a different story

 

[DeeHusky]

This Baylor team reminds of South Carolina when they played Coates and Aja Wilson. Stagnant offense, just trying to throw passes in the paint that aren’t available.

 

[SCspur]

ASU needs to zone Baylor and force them to make perimeter shots. Everything is in the paint for them.

It appears that this is a PAC12 conference game on ESPN2. So is this also a PAC12 Network telecast? If so then maybe there's hope that the UConn at Cal game will be picked up by one of the ESPN stations. It's currently listed as a PAC12 Network game.

ASU Imploding. Baylor takes the lead 49-47

No, it's not a Pac 12 production. Their network only gets games if ESPN, Fox, ABC, etc. pass on covering it. If UConn-Cal is on Pac 12 Network that means ESPN decided not to cover it.

 

[Plebe]

Really bad sequence for ASU, with Elenga missing a wide open layup in transition and then NaLyssa Smith scoring on consecutive buckets to give Baylor the lead. We'll see if they can recover.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Dang it, I jinxed ASU. I turned the game on and now they are falling apart. I turned it off so maybe they can rally.

 

[Plebe]

ASU was going to live or die by the 3-pointer in this game. It gave them their lead in the 1st half. But they've jacked up some very unsightly misses here in the 4th quarter.

 

[Charliebball]

let's see 6'7", 6'4', 6'3" and 6'2" and athletic front line players and that doesn't include DeCosta who's out injured.............................thank God Mulkey doesn't know how to use them otherwise they might win something........

 

[eebmg]

Some of the worst 3pt missiles I have ever seen.

For the majority of a ten year period, I spent two weeks during the summer doing volunteer work in Navajoland along side my brother. A wonderful experience and a wonderful group of people that we worked with.

I'm glad that ASU is proactive here.

PAC12 Net is not affiliated with ESPN.

SEC Network & Longhorn Network -> owned by ESPN
BTN -> partially owned by Fox
PAC12 -> independent

wow ...forgot that Eckmark had gotten into serious shape last year....she's almost unrecognizable.....looks quicker then what I remember when she was at UConn....

Yes. She had a very strong first half, but an equally rotty second half. She does seem much more fit and athletic.

 

[PAHuskeyFan]

looks like Baylor is going to win...BUT they were NOT impressive at all in this game. Offense had little flow, Cox hung around on the perimeter a lot, even when Brown was on the bench with foul trouble. Brown played poorly...not AA material and surely not POY material from what she did in this game. Will Baylor ever schedule a Ranked Team OOC again??

do you think Geno would take her?

 

[MikeBlue]

Well, it's very early in the year, but in response to all the Oregon critics, I don't think Baylor is a top 5 team. Lol. Smh. They played a slow, greatly less talented top 25 team and this is what turned out. I'm interested in seeing what MSST and Lou have to offer against other ranked teams. Go Huskies!
