TCU pulled away in 2nd half to win comfortably 63-42. Sub par games for Prince and Van Lith. Roberson picked up some slack w/ 14 off the bench, Conner had an efficient 13.
 
Gonzaga had to go OT but beats Washington St. 73-69. Tough shooting night for Ejim but she did have 16 pts and 17 rebounds, and a couple key plays at the end to seal the win.

After handling loss of Aoka Lee so far, they imploded today. Another candidate for that elusive #8 spot refusing to claim it.

Now it's TCU, tOSU and pretty much whole triangle competing for that position.
 
Really ugly first half for Ohio State/USC. USC living at the line and that's the difference in the game. OSU's offense looks stagnant outside of A'jae Petty who has some great post moves. Watkins is 0-8 so far and looks frustrated.

Yeah, commentator keeps saying "keep shooting it," but I disagree. She's taken some really bad shots. Other players are scoring and tOSU is just about helpless trying to stop Iriafen. Maybe, don't keep shooting?
 
Baylor beat BYU 83-71, it wasn't really that close. Big game for Littlepage-Buggs. 26 pts/13 reb, 9-11 FG 8-10 FT. Gibb had 21 for BYU.
 
Juju is now 2-16. Cambridge is 3-12. Interesting when these games that are supposed to be a big showdown between 2 players just does not materialize at all.

Still ugly but USC in control. tOSU can't really deal with USC's size.
 
Probably won't happen, but it's close--all 5 starters w/ double digit rebounds? That is CRAZY. USC has 3 w/ 10+ and the other 2 w/ 8 each. Massive 62-30 rebounding advantage, including 19 O boards.


edit--84-63 final, Trojans ran away in 4th quarter
 
Wild that USC has starters out there up 24 with 2 minutes to go, just blatantly trying to get points for Watkins. Also this female announcer is insufferable praising her when Juju has had one of the worst games of her career.
 
Really good win for USC, they looked like the clear better team from start to finish. Their trio of freshmen were great on on both ends. The announcers couldn’t stop praising Watkins for a 5-21 shooting night but made no mention to highlight how well Kennedy Smith played: 13 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks and was phenomenal on both ends. Iriafen with a big night too. Their best offense was letting Juju draw attention and it created good looks for others. They looked massive compared to Ohio State who got destroyed on the glass. I don’t think Ohio State is a top 10 team. Their only “meaty” win was beating Maryland by 8 when they were without Sellers.

Marshall had an impact on the game too, as we both noticed USC was just too big for Ohio St. Not a huge game statistically but some big plays. 10 points, 5 of her 8 rebounds were offensive, and 4 blocks.

While this has been a tough stretch for JuJu, it's been a great stretch for Marshall, Smith, Heckel etc. as they have all had to step up. This can only make U$C better in March.

An odd stat. Despite getting killed on the boards 62-30, tOSU had exactly the same number of shots as the Trojans 68. They just made 7 less.

Yeah they caused a lot of turnovers, they just didn't do much with those changes of possession.
 
JuJu was 3-19 at one point, yet was in the game until the buzzer, quickly jacking up shots to pad her point total.

Kind of a bad look for wcbb's main media darling of 2025.
 
Michigan gets revenge over Michigan St. in East Lansing.
 
I'd had some questions about how legit Texas is, but props to them for a huge win today.


I guess all streaks have to end eventually.
