Thursday games lineup

Indiana with a runner...75-73. Only 4 seconds left.

Exciting 4th quarter in this game.
 
Iowa final shot is blocked...Indiana with a huge win. Should move them solidly into the field of 64. 75-73, Hoosiers
 
So much for my saying this was a boring slate.

Miami & Iowa lose
Maryland narrowly escapes
And SoCar lose at home to KY

Who wants that last #2 seed?
 
Huge win for Indiana. They got Ali Patberg back from injury just in time and may have just punched their ticket.

Quite the outcomes in the Big Ten.

Maryland trails the entire game vs. Minnesota, wins on a steal and buzzer-beater.
Iowa leads for most of the game at Indiana but gets caught down the stretch.
Maryland retakes the Big Ten lead.
 
.-.
Miss St wins @ Ole Miss 80-66.

It would be easy to be upset with the effort as a State fan (probably favored by 30+), but both teams played extremely hard.

I'm just gonna give Ole Miss credit in this one. Said it before, I think Yolett McPhee McCuin is going to be successful at OM, as much as I hate it.

They brutalized McCowan all night though, and that's concerning if the refs are not going to hold teams accountable.
 
ACC Standings...

Notre Dame (12-2)
Louisville (11-2)
Miami and NC State (10-3)
Florida State and Syracuse (9-4)
Clemson and UNC (8-6)
Georgia Tech (7-6)

Florida State and Miami play each other Sunday. NC State still has games remaining with UNC, Louisville and Miami.
 
Is it me or does the entire Tennessee bench (coaches included) look uninterested in the game?

For now it's between NC State, Oregon State and Maryland.

NC State was #8 on Feb. 11 and has picked up a quality road win over Syracuse since then.
Oregon State was #12 and picked up a huge win over Oregon.
Maryland was #11 and won't be punished for losing on the road to Iowa.
But everyone else in contention has faltered.

Current seedings IMHO:
1. Baylor, 2. Oregon, 3. Louisville, 4. UConn, 5. ND, 6, Miss St, 7. Stanford, 8. NC St
9. Oregon St, 10. MD, 11. Iowa, 12. SC, 13. Miami, 14. Marquette, 15. KY, 16. Gonzaga

Umm, they’re 4-9 in Conference play with losses to UVA, NC and GT and the other top 6 teams in the conference, which if he could coach, would have had a few more wins.

Ha and just as you say that, Tennessee goes on a 7-0 run to cut the lead to 15.

If Holly gets this down to single digits, another four year extension! :)

Kayla Wells has gone off in this game, 29 points on 10-14 shooting. I know Carter gets all the pub, but A&M's supporting cast has come a long way.

Jinx started. Lead down to 15 and TA&M coughed up the ball. Carter can just
blow her team up as well as save it

OMG! Freakin enough! Seriously, your team played one of the worst teams in P5 and I had to read far too many updates in a blowout and now you want to tout your record? You have 2 more games you will lose in Louisville and Miami and you have a rival game with NC. So seriously go to the NC State site and tout how wonderful your players are over there! Be self aware you are on UCONN’s website!!!!

Your target's contribution to making the thread interesting was significant.

And the above was your contribution.

Well done.

Wow. TN has quit. TAMU slicing through them with ease.

Been their modus operandi. Maybe 4 games ago Holly said she was going to train them up on effort, since technique and fundamentals seemed out the window. Not her exact words, but that is what she said. Sad really.

Wow! Tennessee with the offensive outburst to cut the final margin of victory to only 17! What a comeback, just barely came up short.

LOTS of positives for the Lady Vol fans to take away from this game. Holly really has this team on the right track.

Perhaps you are unfamiliar with his coaching history. 337-122 with six NCAA bids in 14 years at JMU; His record at Tech is 56-31, after taking over a team that was 30-34 the two years prior to his arrival. While those #s may not impress you, they speak for themselves.

The really sad thing is...if Virginia Tech could make the NCAAT, they would be a dangerous team to face. They have the weapons for a run to the Sweet 16.

Way harsh. Not sure why you unloaded on him.

Just scroll past stuff you find uninteresting. I like to read reactions for certain games. You can normally figure out if it's a game you are interested in.

Be mindful that you are on a UConn board that welcomes all posters from other teams, ON A THREAD THAT IS ABOUT TODAYS GAMES.
 
Clemson lost tonight down in Atlanta. They need two victories to reach 10 conference wins for the season.... and they have two conference games left. The last time they won double digits in the ACC...... 2001. If I were a betting man.... I would bet they fall short of their goal.
