Tell me about the NEW Big Ten

[JellyBean]

Oregon with a nice win over Baylor! Huge win for them and Coach Graves.

 

[Stagnant]

I was a little disappointed when I looked at Oregon’s schedule. I am not sure if they play a road game until 2025.

But yes. Holding serve at home against Baylor is impressive.

 

[Floridaduck]

Oregon withstands a furious 4th quarter rally by #12 Baylor to win by two. Ducks had brief lead of 16 near the end of the third. I've been hoping this was a brand new Duck team ready to be competitive in the BIG. It seems to be. Good speed, headiness, depth at guard, much improved shooting. Could be a fun year.

Definitely better than last season. The only concern I had last night was Kyei playing more than necessary because of the post situation. She didn't look comfortable at some points. Just hope they haven't rushed her back too soon.

Whoa!

 

[CBus13]

Whoa!

Along with Jacy Sheldon as Director of Player Development.

Both were in the crowd at the game last week. I expected this to be announced prior to the first game, but this works too.

 

[Floridaduck]

And… the Ducks return to the Top 25 at #25.

Oregon only favored by 10.5 against North Texas. Plz don't let this be trap game

Won by 30 with a lock down defense and a less than stellar offense.
13(!) Ducks scored.
Meviius and Falatea off the bench with 11 each.
11:00 AM start time? Short turnaround from Sunday night.

Terps defeat Syracuse on the road this evening. Smikle had another strong game. When Bri McDaniel stay out of foul trouble, she is a difference maker. Deberry played and did basically nothing. (grabbed 2 rebounds)

After taking 15 shots in the first half , Juju appears to have finished with only 20. I think she sat out the last 4 minutes as well. Part of my excitement about USC was their infusion of offensive talent to lighten the load. But Juju definitely has a scorers mentality. She takes a lot of quick shots and also kinda runs the point often. I think it may be on coach Gotlieb and TVO to get her off the ball more as well as get other players good looks

 

[cancontent]

Shame. She's a key piece to Nebraska's offence.

Ugh. Having seen the dreaded "ACL" initials all too often over the years, wish her a successful surgery and hopefully see her next season.

 

[WBBTakeover]

Don't look now, but Penn State is off to another hot start this season. Yeah, they haven't played anyone, but still. Moriah Murray and Grace Merkle are quite the duo. Kapinus WHO? Ciezki WHO?

 

[Stagnant]

This is terrible. Mara just can’t catch a break. Losing Mara Braun destroyed Minnesota’s season last year.

Just heartbreaking for Mara. My heart goes out to her. Moments like this, you just hope that these players are getting all the support they need.

The Big 10 has started off nicely. Only 2 teams with two losses or more.

 

[TerpWomenFan]

Ten Big 10 teams in the top 27 of the latest poll.

Oh wow! I just took a look at UCLA's schedule. If some of these rankings don't fluctuate much, then they are looking at one brutal February.

I actually think that Maryland will beat them first on 1/26, but we'll see.
