Sunday games ("Rivalry Week")

Virginia beats Georgia Tech, 53-45. Cavaliers improve to 11-16, 5-9 ACC. Georgia Tech falls to 17-10, 7-7 ACC.

Just a bad, bad, bad loss for Georgia Tech.
 
Missouri is officially specializing in giving the SEC bubble teams their best win of the season. First LSU, then Tennessee, now Auburn.
 
SC spitting up now. Lead down to 8.
 
WOW

Tennessee decided to run a set on offense and is being highly efficient. Take note Holly
 
.-.
Tennessee is seriously dumb

You have the lead down to 7 with the chance to get the last shot before the quarter ends. Instead, they drive extremely early in the clock and throw up a bad shot. SC goes the other end and hits a jumper to extend it back to 9.
 
Missed the Oregon-USC game. Nice to see Hebard can still play -- and score, even though she's been moved to the bench.
 
Oregon State looks like they'll survive a very stiff test from UCLA. Now up 3 with the ball with 15 seconds left.

Two months ago I never thought UCLA would be this good in February.
 
SC's first quarter margin falling down down down. If Tenn wins maybe Charlie will make them a 4?? :rolleyes:
 
Wow, Pivec misses 2 FTs with 12 seconds left to give UCLA hope.

UCLA needs a 3-pointer.

Nice crowd over in Winston relatively speaking ...... 2,037 was the attendance. Alot of blue in the stands.... no fights broke out :cool:

Whoa, Duke and Washington both win on the same day! When is the last time that happened? I hope @triaddukefan had some kind of fantastic celebratory meal.

Well @Fightin Choke mentioned PDQ in a thread a few weeks ago... so they have one in Winston Salem so I checked it out for a victory meal. Had the Pimento Crunch Sandwich.... a Crispy Chicken breast topped with homemade Pimento Cheese, Lettuce, Sea Salt Potato Chips and Bacon :eek: with a side of these :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

UCLA finished 7-2 on the road in the Pac, that's impressive.

Another big game for Goodman today.

Good move to go with the lettuce garnish and the apples under all that stuff. You do know how to eat healthy. Unlike this guy:

 
And Japreece Dean's 3-point attempt at the buzzer bounces off the rim. OSU wins, 75-72.
UCLA was within spitting distance of what would have been a shocking road sweep of the Oregon schools.

The Beavers were led by 3 guards:
Goodman (21 pts)
Pivec (18 pts and 11 rebs)
McWillimas (14 pts)

And again, Grymek was a force in the middle: 10 points, 7 blocks (!!), 6 rebounds.

Scott Rueck truly is a svengali for post player development. As amazing as the improvement of Hamblin and Gulich was, I think Grymek's strides over the past 4 months might be his greatest accomplishment yet.

Is there any wonder why post player recruits are starting to flock to Corvallis?

Which is especially surprising because in the previous 2-3 years UCLA was known as a great home court team but not so great on the road.

Goodman has only continued to impress. Perhaps the player who has most stepped up to compensate for the loss of Tudor?

I would agree with that. They really needed McWilliams to step up, but she's been inconsistent and too often not aggressive on O. She showed today she can score.
 
Meanwhile, in the last Pac-12 game of the day, Arizona's defense has them leading Cal 53-41 with 8:00 to play.

This is a game Arizona really needs to win to help their at-large bid chances. Cal is probably still safe-ish without a loss.
 
Stanford ran away from Arizona St. in the 2nd half.

Arizona jumped all over Cal in Q2 and is trying to hang on for a very important win for them. Up 7 w/ 6+ minutes left.


edit--quiet game for Anigwe so far on Senior Day, only 9 points on 3-10 shooting. She does have 16 rebounds. Reece Caldwell has really stepped up her game the last several weeks, she's playing well again today.
 
It's gotten really tight in Berkeley. Caldwell hits a contested running jumper to cut the lead to 2 with 1:00 to play. Arizona has possession.

After Arizona came oh so close to winning at Stanford, this would be a gutting loss if Cal is able to come back from 15 down to win.

Goodman has a quick release. Not as quick as Tudor's but still very quick. That is what allows her to get her shot off against quick athletic teams. People forget what made Tudor so effective was not just her percentage, but how quick of a release and the high arch she had on "catch and shoot." When she was on, teams were forced to face guard her the whole game which also opened up the offense for others.

They problem with KMac is that they are running a faster offense with more drives to the hole this season. She doesn't get the ball in her hands like she did last season. She is more comfortable in a slower more deliberate offense. She does not play well with Slocum on the floor.

That may be, but she's always tended to defer to others. She's never averaged double figure scoring in her career. She has the ability, but just doesn't look to score consistently enough, been that way all along for her.

Arizona hits 1 of 2 FTs to take a 3-point lead. Cal takes its last timeout, down 3 with 35 seconds left.
 
Caldwell hit a 3 to tie it w/ 17 seconds left.


edit--both teams missed key FTs late, going OT
 
Overtime. Some critical missed free throws by both teams in the final minute. Arizona made 1 of 2 with about 17 seconds left, and then Anigwe made 1 of 2 to send the game to OT.

Cal has all the momentum, though.
 
And McBryde just fouled out for Arizona on the first possession of OT.

Hard to imagine Arizona winning now. They have no depth in the frontcourt.
 
In the Az St. loss, Ekmark was the leading ASU scorer...with TEN. Ouch. She shot 1-7 fgs. Again...ouch.
 
OT has been fantastic, back and forth. McDonald scoring at will, but Fr. Forbes keeps answering w/ 3's. She's 5-6 today. Cal up 2, Arizona ball, about a minute left.
