And the refs let her get away with it. Inconsistent reffing again. Touch fouls called. Body blocks not. I thought she should have fouled out in third 1/4. And I couldn’t have cared less which team won.PILI BULLIED PRINCETON
No team has lost on their home court. All 1, 2, 3, 4 still going. This is a boring tournament.
I watched a bit of the Notre Dame: Mississippi State game. An exciting mud-wrestling contest. Miss the basket, slog down the court and miss another basket.
Please, can we have some real basketball tomorrow.
It shouldn't have been a surprise. Ole Miss has been playing hard all year, took SC to overtime. This does not surprise me at all. They had the game for 40 minutes.Well that was unexpected. Congrats to Ole Miss.
Hell and their losses aren't bad outside of Alabama who choked an 18 point lead to BaylorThe SEC underachieves in the tournament for years after looking strong in the regular season, now they look mediocre the entire regular season and tear up the NCAA tournament. 10-3 so far, with Tennessee heavily favored to make it 11-3 tomorrow. Funny how these things work.
Reese is a very talented player. I watched this and the Utah game. I thought the refs were extremely deferential to Reese. At least 2 clear (to me) charges called blocks and several fouls not called on Reese including one where she whacked a player in the head. They looked to see if it was flagrant, but didn’t call a foul. Gotta do something about the quality of refs, although as in the Utah game, probably wouldn’t have affected who won.Other notables:
Angel Reese: 29 points, 19.5 rebounds, 4.5 blocks, 3.5 assists, 3 steals
Caitlin Clark: 24 points and 12 assists per game
Many of us said that Stanford didn't have the guards to replace the Hull sisters and Wilson.Watching Stanford go down, I don’t think they made or even took a shot outside of 5’ during the entire 2nd half vs Ole Miss. Credit to MS for a great win. But you can’t win without guard play or outside shooters.
Ole Miss definitely underanked. But I think Stanford wins this game going away if they could make layups. At the end, Hayley Jones single handedly lost this one trying to force it on her own. Why they didn’t get it to Brink is unfathomable. So many missed bunnies. They deserved to lose with that performance.Watching Stanford go down, I don’t think they made or even took a shot outside of 5’ during the entire 2nd half vs Ole Miss. Credit to MS for a great win. But you can’t win without guard play or outside shooters, and Stanford had neither.
I agree--and not just for ball handling, since Lexi did turn the ball over a bit, but for their (the Hull twins') intensity (especially Lexi) and the fact that Lexi's fearlessness took a lot of pressure (I believe) off Jones.Many of us said that Stanford didn't have the guards to replace the Hull sisters and Wilson.
That said, it was Haley Jones who made critical errors down the stretch.
I don't think she can stay another year at Stanford, although she could, I suppose, go elsewhere as a grad transfer.we’ll know Haley Jones’ decision in 48 hours
Hey, 36 of Stanford's 49 points came from TWO players. I don't know what's more embarrassing -- Stanford's overrated offense, or the geniuses who seeded them #1.39 of their 54 points came from two players.
