Week 5 - Dec 2 to 8

[packwrap]

Harmon isn't the same Harmon. Texas posts don't have the greatest hands or hand strength.

TX posts did a nice job though muscling and out rebounding the K&K tandem for ND.

Difference here v TCU and Utah, was the post newbies kept their poise even with foul trouble, and this time all 3 guards played great.

Especially for Koval this experience will really help on March.

That was fun, elite 8 in early December.
Can't wait now for UConn/ND. Domers mat never go to Caymans again.

 

[Stagnant]

You got no shot against South Carolina when you give up 50 points to them in a half.

Tbf, I don’t know if anyone can beat South Carolina when they play their A game.

 

[Centerstream]

Oof, Kansas St. walloped South Carolina Upstate 110-24. That's just sad. Triple double for Sundell.

edit--is Lee injured again? Didn't play today.

And glancing at the box score might make a person cry...Upstate scored 2 points in the 1st quarter and matched it in the 4th.

Tx posts couldn't hold onto the ball and missed quite a few close ins. To their credit...some of the passes to them were forced or late.

Pao Pao! Bang Bang!

 

[azfan]

Tremendous atmosphere at McKale and a super game. I'll bet over 5000 fans in the arena to enjoy a close match. The fans show up and out for their kitties

One of the assistant coaches for UofA was rocking a white Beetlejuice ensemble.

Trinity San Antonio with 26 points and 11 boards seals the deal with 2 free throws with 24 seconds remaining, - 69-66

Great game!

Tough instate for Barnes with this loss and the NAU thrashing up in Flagstaff last month.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Florida over Clemson and Arkansas over Boston College in a couple of pick 'em games that go in favor of the SEC.

 

[nwhoopfan]

So...Univ. of Arizona is the third best team in the state of Arizona? Losses to Northern Arizona and Grand Canyon.


I think I was already off the fence w/ Coach Barnes, but if not I'm ALL the way off now. She's looking more and more like her mentor Mike Neighbors, had one standout player that made her look like a much better coach than she actually is. Reality keeps setting in more and more w/ each passing year.

Hey, @Plebe said "No Nights Off". Arkansas and Florida took the phrase it to heart tonight to help the SEC in this series.

Vic has been knocking on the door of another Final Four ever since he got to Texas. Each year I think it’s finally time, and each year it seems like they’re just missing half a thing that would get them over the hump.

Just saw Ark now has Higgenbottom. Really ashame that Wolfenbarger and Poffenberger not there anymore, as that mixture would have just rolled right off the tongue for the 'color man'.

I agree with this 100%.

 

[Stagnant]

Texas did kill Notre dame on the backboard, that’s one thing I noticed. Notre dame made up for this difference by forcing a lot of turnovers.

I don’t think rebounding is a strength for UConn. So, if Notre dame can’t take advantage of that… that is only a good thing for UConn.

 

[Stagnant]

Stanford and LSU has been a hell of a game.

I have to say. The ACC has really punched back today.

Cal might take down a ranked Alabama team as well.

 

[LwrcasefaN]

What is SC waiting for to replace Raven in the starting lineup?

 

[nwhoopfan]

Cal beat Alabama 69-65.

First win for the Bears over a ranked team in nearly 5 years (March of '20).

 

[nwhoopfan]

Stanford needed to close it out in regulation. Blew a 6 point lead in the last 40 seconds.

Don't get me started...

 

[Stagnant]

I think Duke should be really pleased. They should feel like they can compete with anyone now.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Nice meme. Way back in the good old days when spoofs were still funny.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Oregon St. just lost their WCC debut, in OT on the road against Pacific. A crowd of about 27 people were thrilled by the action. Gonna be a long season for the Beavs.


Boston College has the dubious honor of having lost to both Oregon St. and Arkansas.

That is some kind of statement. I have no idea what it means, but it was made with authority.

 

[Stagnant]

Trying to be optimistic about UConn's chances in a game I think they are likely to lose lol.

 

[Stagnant]

The SEC wins the SEC/ACC challenge 10-6. Not bad for the ACC. Could have been better. They gave some games away. They did better than the men at least.

Yeah, I think they might be missing how to play against the zone
Notre Dame plays five against for the whole game and they never garment Harmon and she would shoot the open three at the top of the king

nwhoopfan- - Remember when Boston College was one of the top 3 WBB teams in the Big East?
The move to the ACC really paid off for them in ALL sports, huh!

 

[JellyBean]

What a night of basketball!!

South Carolina/Duke. Put some respect on Chole Kitts name! Wow. Great game!

ND/Texas- Another great game. Coach Ivey and her strong 6 out there. Well done, Coach!!

The game of the night, LSU/Stanford. Now that was fun. LSU stepped up big time! The play of Williams, Johnson, Morrow, and Gilbert was unreal! Morrow continues to be a beast on the glass! Brooke and Nunu continue to play well for Stanford.

My favorite game of the night, California/Alabama. Well done Coach Smith had California. The Big Ten. The ACC. The SEC. The Big 12. There will be some serious battles in these conferences.

 

[triaddukefan]

Didn't even get to watch the game. Saw the halftime score.

Not done with mankind, but am boycotting all chicken products until further notice. No chicken sandwiches, chicken souvlaki, Buffalo wings, scrambled eggs... Nothing.
