Pretty sure I've seen her play including at Lu-Hi.

Why does there have to be a point in noting performances? I just find it funny how she can barely miss even the most extreme shots against UConn time and again, then struggles against vastly inferior competition.

Petty? Hardly.

She has done the same thing against SCar and UCLA. Think she gets up for Playing an underdog role?
 
Ok, SCar scored 83 vs Duke which a bucket less that USF, but promising.

If SCar can get out of the 60s vs Texas I might start to get a little more comfortable.

Big game today for early November.

I believe this is a better Texas team than last year, but it isn't as big or deep inside.

I presume Texas will try to take away the paint as much as possible and make SCar prove its shooting.

Post passing will also be big.

I worry about Texas pulling away early for a second time in this tournament while SCar tries to figure their defense out with this relatively new team.

I don't think SCar is quite all the way there on either side of the ball to be honest.

Should be fun.

Kind of thinking this one is going to be a dogfight.

“Early November?” JK
 
Catching up on some of these games last night.

UCLA/Texas-Not going to read too much into this game other than a slow start by UCLA hurt them. Being down 23 points hurt plus only going 6 deep is not good either. Coach Close will rally this team into shape. Now if they lose to Duke, then alarms will start to go off but this was a heavyweight match and somebody had to lose.

Ohio State/West VA-That was a fun game. Both teams are sneaky good and I always love when anyone beats Ohio State, so I was rooting for West Virginia in this one. Sadly WVA gave the game away.

South Carolina/Duke-It is going to be a long season for Duke. On paper they look good and then they play the games, and you are like "Oh my". Coach Lawson has her hands full this season.

Michigan/Detroit-I have been following Michigan since I was 14 (1984) and Minnesota, this is Michigan most balanced team ever. Coach KBA has a well-balanced team. During the Naz era, it was all Naz, which was awesome. Naz Hillmon was a beast at Michigan. She put that program on the map, but it was give the ball to Naz and everyone else get out of the way. This team Coach KBA has is balanced. They have the very talented Sword and Olson but now Michigan has a confident Holloway, a healthy Delfosse, tough as nails Ashley Sofilkanich, and Macy Brown giving additional guard help. Michigan is going to make some noise in the Big Ten this season and hopefully a few more years. This team has talent.

North Carolina is putting it on South Dakota St. Jumped on them early and haven't let up. The Jackrabbits are usually really solid, seems like a decent quality win.

Carolina got handled by UCLA, but otherwise they've been putting the hammer down and not messing around.

edit--triple double for Nivar, with steals being one of the categories included; don't see that very often

Predicting the ACC champ is a head scratcher because of the up and downs from game to game. I still think the regular season champ will run through the state of North Carolina but this conference is a complete mess this season. Maybe this is UNC's year!

I still think Duke might be a hard out in the league.

Not sure why exactly despite all evidence, but no real reason for them to be struggling this hard.
 
While many of us are sitting around eating too much and getting sleepy, Columbia and Kansas St. had quite the shootout. K State squeaked by 95-92.

BYU managed to beat Virginia Tech w/ no Delaney Gibb. I thought a Gibb-Carleight Wenzel match up could be interesting, but it wasn't to be.
 
Oregon St. is hanging w/ Vandy at halftime. Down 5.

edit--Blakes is going off
 
Maybe Sienna Betts will make her season debut in relief of her sister.

Okay, this one might be jinx proof. TCU up big at the half against Richmond, and Suarez already has 24. She's been thriving there so far this year. Who woulda thought Miles would be their second biggest pick up in the portal.
 
Rory Harmon and Joyce Edwards putting themselves in AA contention
