49-43 Oral Roberts leading at the half. I've actually been impressed with the Golden Eagles....very active and aggressive on defense (11 steals) and they are shredding the Jacks with hard cutting in the paint.

Coach Payne may be regretting the emphasis (or lack of) she places on defense.

Without greater interior defense the Jacks are staring at a home loss.

Sophie Glancy played sparingly, wonder if she is battling coil/flu?

It's school day at Rolle and my ears hurt.
 
Altitude may have caught up with the girls from Oklahoma....Jacks outscore Wheezing Eagles 32-8 in the 3rd quarter to take command and head to the 4th with a 19 point lead.

I'm surprised Miss St is favored at Georgia Tech. Only 1.5, but still...

I am surprised you guys are surprised. It is more of a surprise Georgia tech is good this year than it is Mississippi state.

But. One thing I will concede. Ga Tech is definitely more battle tested so far this year.
 
Some surprisingly non competitive games going on currently. Louisville is turning Oklahoma inside out just before halftime.

To be fair, the lead should be larger considering the 18 turnovers and players on the bench due to fouls.

And now since you mentioned the game, it's likely going to light a fire under Oklahoma and they'll be firing on all cylinders to start the third. ;)
 
I am pretty pleased to see Verhulst have a good game for Oklahoma in a victory over her former team Louisville.

I think she represents a big mistake by Walz. And so this is very fitting to me.

I still got it! I didn't really have a strong rooting interest in this game though, I guess my jinx powers work even if I don't care who wins.

Great.........during a game where Merrisah Russell, a Canadian I root for, has a great game on both ends of the court. Just my luck. :(

Okay, here's my hot pick "somebody has to win" game of the day. Syracuse vs. Texas A&M. Both come in at 4-4 and a steaming hot plate of meh so far this year.
 
Tennessee’s offense is truly something. SEC play can’t come fast enough, as I’m eager to see how it looks against real defenses like Ole Miss, South Carolina and Texas.
 
How about under the radar grudge match of the day--Pitt vs. Duquesne, a little cross town rivalry. Maybe @triaddukefan will let us throw out the record book for this one! 1 point game going into Q4.

Good prediction!!! The Sooners outscored the Cardinals 49-31 in the second half to win 78-72.

I dunno, he’s better at throwing out the record books when it’s Baptists vs 6th Day Adventists, or similar. Not sure how to evaluate Catholics vs …. Lapsed Catholics?
 
This one is surprising to me. Richmond was 8-0 coming into the game and having a good season so far. Lost at home to Georgetown, 4-3 before the game. 55-53 final.
 
.-.
Well, good win for Georgetown. I think they have had a really disappointing year so far. Maybe this will get them going?
 
Can the SEC claim Duquesne for the ACC-SEC Challenge. Dukes gonna get the road win. McConnell w/ 14 pts and 12 reb. Not too bad for a 5-7 guard!
 
Hey never mind the SEC-ACC Challenge, we've got the Big Sky-Summit Challenge going on now!
 
Tennessee's third quarter reminded me of the UConn third quarter against Ole Miss.
