Week 1 games (Nov. 25-29)

[Sluconn Husky]

Mikayla Coombs' debut with Georgia:

6 points, 4 rebs, 5 assists, 2 steals, 28 minutes

 

[Baylor1994]

Smith thrives taking advantages of opportunities when they present themselves but She is capable of scoring when she wants to though. She is a mismatch in the open floor for someone of her size and athleticism. I would like to see her knock down outside jumpers more. She has range although not from 3 point land. I think tonight was the first time I saw her try to shoot those shots.

Interesting that Queen Egbo got 0 minutes tonight. She has always been in Kim's doghouse most of her time at Baylor. She absolutely crucial for their team this year. I did like Bickle though. Tall lengthy player who rebounds and can score around the rim through contact. She honestly was the most impressive player for me watching Baylor play tonight. They obviously miss the leadership of Richards and don't have that chemistry quite yet. Andrews is clearly their best PG right now, I don't see it with J. Oliver.

Yep I agree with you! Queen is a junior so she should know not to break any team rules! That’s why she was in the doghouse yesterday. Hopefully she’ll get to play on Tuesday against south Florida. Bickle to me was the best player of the game! She had 14 points on 5-6 shooting, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 4 steals, and 1 block without any turnovers! Hannah Gusters also had a good debut for the lady bears! Also, nalyssa needs to stop shooting those 3’s! She’s like 1-16 her career from outside. The best shooter from the post position is Bickle on the team. I would rather have her on the trail so she can shoot those 3’s that Smith took.

I think that N. Smith realizes that she has to play the wing to be successful at the next level and that requires her to be able to shoot the 3 so she is attempting to develop that shot. However, I agree, while this was not a close or challenging game, she should not shoot those shots in closer games until she gets better at it.

Oh my...Tulane blew out Nicholls, 88-43, in the season opener for both teams. In one quarter, the Fighting Colonels only managed 4 points.

Checking their roster...Nicholls has NO seniors on the roster. They are very young this season. Dobee has a lot of work to do with this team. They do have five or six juniors...and one graduate transfer from Maine who is originally from Slovakia.

Oh definitely! Hopefully the whole team improve from yesterday’s game. We did not shoot well. Now we are going on the road the next 3 games

I was most impressed yesterday with Duke more so than any other team. The way they defended was CLEARLY a difference from the JPM era!

Not just defense. They put 90 on the board. And they moved offensively. When Kara starts getting high ranked recruits watch out.

UConn-Lite. Now get them on our schedule.

 

[SECbbfan24]

@Plebe

Our game against BYU will be challenging tomorrow. They have a 6'7 center (Sara Hamson), they have two big time scorers returning (Paisley Harding 15 PPG and Shaylee Gonzales 17 PPG before her injury last year). They also added a couple strong transfers to compliment the current roster.

I'm not paying 10 dollars to watch the game so I will just follow the live stats lol

Getting married early to get a jump on those fifteen kids is sort of a hobby down there in happy valley.

Me too

I loved seeing the man to man defense... the matchup zone that the previous coach loved is ok from time to time... but not as the base defense.

Not just defense. They put 90 on the board. And they moved offensively. When Kara starts getting high ranked recruits watch out.

According to GoDuke.. the 30 points scored in the 3rd quarter was the 5th most in program history.

When the recruits start flowing in ..... y'all might have to put me on ignore that is if you haven't already

Now Louisville's game at Cincinnati has been canceled as well (due to COVID case in UC program, per UC release). Louisville not having great luck with its early OOC opponents: MTSU, UConn, now Cincy.

Louisville women's basketball has another game canceled, and another game added to schedule
