Clearly a different team with Addy Brown back. What coulda been for them if she didn't get hurt for a significant chunk of the season.

That said, Iowa state with a real choke job here. Definitely hard to keep a lead in that away environment, but jeese has Iowa State had terrible possessions the last few minutes of this game. Was there any game plan whatsoever?

Also: totally unsold on Crooks' pro potential, because what W team wants a big who can't play pro defense? Also, taking a class with Tara this quarter at Stanford and she broke down how they scouted Crooks and how she always wants to go left. If you body her and cut off the left side, she really comes back down to earth, offensively.

Wow, I quit score board watching for a few minutes and TCU went on a big run.

Triple double for Miles, I think they clinched at least a share of the conference title and she probably clinched the conference POY.

My stomach is reinforced with Kevlar, gonna take a lot more than a Clemson loss. Now if we lose next Sunday, I'll be chugging down Pepto Bismal like it's Cheerwine

I can’t see it. They’ve lost to every elite team they played. Not sure the gap between the top 3 and next 5 teams is THAT big. Probably a solid #3 though.
Expand ...

Considering where we were sitting a few months ago, a #3 seed ain't too bad

And you got mad because I questioned your results with sports betting!


I see an opportunity here. Continue to share your thoughts and picks. Then we can all do the opposite and score big time. Til Vegas figures out what is going on and shuts you down.
 
Vandy wins a shoot out with Kentucky. Ho hum, another game, another 35 points for Blakes.

If anyone knows the power of the jinx, it's you!

Hey I did you a favor, I didn't mention anything about Stanford having a big lead early against FSU. It started to dwindle, but then they built it up again. So no jinx from me today.


I tried the reverse jinx with Washington. It almost worked. But not quite.

You beat me to it! 🤣

New idea to replace my "NWHoopfan can save the world" concept. @nwhoopfan and @triaddukefan collaborate and come up with a communication system for us BYers leverage on parlays. 😉
Expand ...
Right now we're both wearing paper bags so communication will be difficult, it will be a lot muted mumbling.
 
Tomorrow's poll should be pretty interesting, with Duke, Tennessee, Lousville, and Michigan all losing. Alabama, TCU, Ohio State, and Vanderbilt all rallied in the 4th quarter to avoid the upset parade. Most likely the four SEC powerhouses will be in spots 3-6.
 
Once again, Kentucky was leading Vanderbilt going into the 4th quarter and lost. I wonder if they’ll meet again in the SECT.

It's possible!

Probably not likely, however. Tennessee and Alabama hold tie-breakers over Kentucky, so they may be locked into the 8-9 positions UNLESS they win out (and that's not likely).

1. UCONN
2. UCLA
3. SC
4. Texas
5. Vanderbilt
6. LSU

Then a crapshoot

Texas is good obviously. But Mississippi state really sucks. I’m sorry. But they do. They have been blasted several times this year. There’s no way they deserve to make the tournament.
Expand ...
I won't say they should make the tournament. But Mississippi State has wins over Kentucky and Georgia. They lost to Vandy by only 5 points. So, they may not be as bad as they looked today. They can have good moments when they aren't turning the ball over. Also, it is unfortunate for Texas' last 2 opponents, both of whom tried to play zone defense, that Texas decided to start shooting and making threes. The Longhorns hit 11 threes today, most of them before halftime.

Blakes player of the year?
Expand ...

Blakes is the best four level scorer that I've seen. The fourth level is her ability to draw tons of shooting fouls because of her aggressive, acrobatic, body control drives—better even than JuJu Watkins and Hannah Hidalgo. Shea Ralph smartly runs clearout plays for her.

If Blakes and Sarah Strong continue their level of play, I'd say both should should make five-player AA first teams and that Strong should take NPOY. Of course, there are multiple NPOY awards, so they could be split.

Blakes and Galvan are the most offensively productive backcourt I've seen this season . . . and they're only a soph and a freshman!

More of that Big 10 chaos. Michigan St. up 10 @ Minnesota with 2 minutes left. Those 2 teams had been going in opposite directions prior to today.
