Hmmm. SC up 19 over Texas at the end of the 3rd Q. No one from UT in double figures as of yet. Should be an interesting bracketology on Tuesday.

A loss on the road to a #1 seed, even if lopsided, won't have much effect if any on Texas's projected seeding. He already has Texas as a #2 seed. It would be different if Texas were having this performance against a lesser team.

You might be right. It might depend on how the #3 seeds, KSU, TCU, KY, and MD have done in the last week, as Texas is the 4th two seed.

I don't believe this is true. It's not always possible to deduce what a team's "true" seed is from the bracket, but Texas is currently the #2 seed in the fourth bracket (with USC), which in a true S curve would make Texas the top #2 seed.

Recall as well that he's now updating the bracket twice per week, so the next update on Tuesday will fold in new results since Friday.

SC is still the queen of the SEC, I thought Texas would have had more game today, being the #1 Net team. Never underestimate Coach Staley, she still brings it.

It's one game, on the road, against a really good team.

As I recall, SC took a similar spanking at UCLA. I guess Staley chose not to "bring it" that day.

And shot less than 30%. Not sure how impressive that stat is.

It's impressive they were able to get so many O-boards and force so many turnovers against SC, but at some point you have to put the ball through the hoop for any of that to matter.

SC also shot extremely well, over 50%, and 12-15 from the FT line. I think in the first half they were over 70% FG, then cooled off in the second half but Texas couldn't capitalize.

And Texas gets a do over at home next month. Btw, the Horn’s OLDACRE was the best Big on the floor. Maybe the best big we have seen all year. Betts has better skills but Oldacre is a better “ bull.”
 
Duke- UVa
Ohiost-Oregon
ND - Clemson
UNC-BC

…But
SC-Tex is the blowout of the day

Agreed.

Looks like it. She has five assistants, and only one of them is new to the staff this year. What do they get paid to do? The bald-headed dude is the former director of player development--yet the players aren't developing. Toby looks like she's actually regressing. Reigan has disappeared. Jadyn still can't shoot.

They are in danger of losing to a poorly-coached team with a NET rating hovering around 100--led by a short SG masquerading as a PG and a twig that Miami didn't want anymore. That is INEXCUSABLE for a fifth-year head coach.

Why the beat down on UVA? I actually think Mo is a very good point guard who can also shoot. And I think Coach Mox has done a decent job, given what she inherited from Tina (a mess) and has had zero nil $$. The win on the road against Clemson was a good one too.
 
What a great day of basketball games! That Duke/VA game was exciting. South Carolina/Texas was a shocker. I thought Texas would make it tough for South Carolina and keep it close, but Coach Staley continues to put on a masterful display of coaching by showing another level of her South Carolina program. Well done, Coach Staley.

Arkansas/Lady Vols-Coach Neighbors just does not have the horses to keep up with a lot of these SEC teams, especially teams like the Lady Vols. The Lady Vols were just too much for Arkansas.
 
McMiller was back for Rutgers, scored 33 but not enough. Nebraska won 69-62. Prince had 24.

Pitt trailed SMU by 31 points at halftime but just outscored them 28-0 (yes, 28 to zero) in 3Q to cut the lead to 3.

Not sure I've ever seen anything quite like that.

Not quite as bad in Q4, but still lopsided. 26-10. 54-10 in the 2nd half. Following a flip flopped score of 49-18 in the 1st half. That might be the craziest in game turn around I've ever heard of.
