Stanford - Texas

[CTBasketball]

Both teams not looking impressive. I think I caught Stanford at a wrong night, 1st time seeing them play this year.

Stanford up 2 w/ 56 seconds left. UT ball.

Both teams shooting well and not turning it over

Its a sloppy game - do we want Texas or Stanford to win?

I would say Stanford at this point, both on the schedule and this will give Stanford more credibility leading up to mid-january.

Probably Stanford. Gives us a chance at a quality road win if they boost their profile. It's RPI neutral, though.

 

[Rocktheworld]

But how is it sloppy?

I don't think it matters too much who wins RPI-wise but if Stanford wins and theirs goes up that's nice to get on the road if we win

That was a huge flop Texas just got away with.

Tied up. Last possession for Stanford.

Update: Stanford won

Its going to be a tough battle when we go to Stanford on 1/17. They have a pretty good guard (Randle), a skilled big guy (who can pose problems), and a pretty good small forward. UConn gave away last year's game at Hartford vs them, and the women surpisingly lost earlier in the season over there. Hoping that Stanford is ranked for that game. UConn really needs to win at least 1 or both of these away, out of conference matchups in January.
