I'm jacked after our game tonight; over 11K in attendance on a night when traffic was in a gridlock in DT Columbia. I ended up parking almost a mile away and walking to the game.

I know how you feel. I've been to games at the Arena when traffic was a mess and I had to walk a mile to get there.
 
Tara/Stanford always seems to do better when they are not the favorite. I think it has something to do with pressure from expectations. And hey! It's basketball-any given night when teams are close enough in ability.

Just an outstanding effort by two great teams and two terrific coaches as well. These Texas guards go 100 mph the entire game. Things are looking up for the women's game. Really entertaining. UConn should look into a home and home with Texas.

Would be a great idea. Baylor and UT on a Texas swing.

UConn plays SMU and Houston. And Tulsa. So the players could just take a semester-long sabbatical and make it like an NBA road trip. Something like this: Tulane, Houston, Baylor, Texas, SMU, and Tulsa. Memphis on the way home. Or Cincinnati.

Or Tennessee...

Did Texas defend the perimeter or refuse to be drawn out and protected against the drives and cutters. One error I think we made was being drawn out too far to the perimeter. Defend the line an a foot or so but let them take 25' shots.
 
I have Directv so I can't get the PAC12 network. So my knowledge of this game was the reporting on this thread. It was a great job. I was on the edge of my seat to find out what happened. Unlike Monday thrilled with the result. I never thought Stanford would lose.

If Texas wins, then all the whiners can stop complaining about UCONN. Parody will have come to the women's game. At least until March.

..ah, outta the mouths of babes ...

lookin' at how some coaches attire themselves (Sylvia, Kim, Andy, Jeff, et al) you can make the argument that this happened a loooong time ago...:rolleyes:

Is Tennessee on the way home?

You do need to add Baylor and UT to add some quality to your southern swing. SMU, Houston and Tulsa might as well be Paris Junior College, Panola Junior College and Tyler Junior College.
 
LOL!
So women's basketball is a grossly exaggerated version? (parody)
sorry, couldn't resist. The word is parity = evenly matched

Bingo! It also looked like they were very unprepared for this game. I think Uconn took up a lot of that prep time LOL.
 
Vanderveer indicated post game that Stanford was emotionally not up for that type of opponent so soon after Monday's win. There's probably something to that. It's really not that surprising a result.

A lot teams have a let down (whether they win or lose) after playing UCONN.
