Stanford getting all it can handle

[HuskyFan1125]

from New Mexico. Tied at the half 35-35. Tara will have them adjusted in the second half I'm sure.

Maybe a wolf can finish what a husky couldnt

So, if Stanford loses New Mexico gets ranked ahead of them and UConn falls below both...

TAMU didnt blowout PVSU tonight. Thats a surprise

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Doesn't appear Lili Thompson is playing. Karlie Samuelson has 5 threes so far.

And New Mexico kicked its best player off of the team as well...

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Tie game with a minute to go....

Tied at 64 with 74 seconds left

Stanford had a 9-pt lead with 4 minutes left. Damn, that sounds familiar....

65-64 New Mexico with 30 seconds left

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Don't know who to root for..

 

[triaddukefan]

Come on Lobos

70-65 Stanford pulls it out

That loss is getting harder to take by the day. I know Thompson was out, but I think UConn would've beaten NM handily without Stewart.

New Mexico is 0-4, including a 38 pt loss to DePaul.

Kaylee Johnson is a rebounding machine. she may break Chiney's rebounding record. I really liked her play against UConn.

New Mexico is 0-4, including a 38 pt loss to DePaul.

Tough schedule so far.... TAMU, Depaul, Stanford... then @ Texas next week

On paper, the UNM Lobos are not in the same world as UConn or Stanford, or so it would seem. And yet, the Lobos came within 30 seconds of actually beating Stanford. Astonishing.

Maybe the parity that we've all desired for the sport is coming to fruition finally.

Thompson was ESPN's POW. She's really good.

But still ... Stanford was really good last Monday, but has struggled since.

 

[MarieYLee]

Stanford relies HEAVILY on the 3pt shot. If they are hitting a high percentage like against UCONN, they are tough as they have two guards in Thompson and Orrange who can get in the lane and hit the mid range. I would have to say both of their sophomore posts have been a disappointment (McCall and Kailee Johnson). Their freshman KJohnson looks to be a very good player (though little offense). If their post develops by March, and their 3pt shot is falling, they can go deep in the tournament. But a lot will rely on their post and 3pt shot.

I think it's becoming apparently obvious that for whatever reason, UConn took Stanford lightly last week.
