Week 6 - Dec 9 to 15

Michigan drubbed Detroit Mercy 100-54. The difference between Detroit Mercy and oh, say North Carolina Central is that the Titans were 6-1 before today, compared to 0-11.

Olivia Olson w/ 22, most of that was in the first half. 3 in double figures off the bench.

I think LSU played them too.

Gotta keep up with the Joneses, huh.

But LSU beat them by 85, not 80. Tennessee should've taken a few more threes.
 
Cal Baptist is getting thrashed by 2-8 UC San Diego. I can't believe how bad the Lancers are this year. Did they lose everybody from last season?

I’m sorry Tennessee. I like the direction your program is headed. But I don’t know why you scheduled that game. I don’t think it makes you better.

Because they are a bunch of cowards. Gonna schedule the 4th best team in the Triangle.... cause they know they couldn't handle any of the top 3.

Mine you, as the #1 rival of my Aggies... I'm not a huge fan of Central... they are about my 8th favorite team in the state, but they didn't deserve this :mad:

What are you talking about?
This is one of the biggest ACC rivalry games. Right @triaddukefan ?
Expand ...

Top 3 for sure. Actually its the only rivalry in the country that has the same dynamic as Duke vs Chapel Hill. Top State Private vs Neighboring Flagship. Without looking at a map, I've always assumed that the Cal and Stanford's campuses are close to each other.
 
Belmont made Mississippi St. work for it, 73-70 final. Bruins are usually good, but this isn't looking like a banner year for them, only 5-5 so far. Bulldogs won the 4th quarter 32-21. That means they didn't score a whole lot in quarters 1-3.

Wow, looking at play by play, this was a tie game until a foul on a 3 with essentially no time left on the clock.


edit--it was 69-65 MSU w/ 10 seconds left, that's a whole lot of scoring at the end
 
I don’t know what’s more impressive between 30 made threes or 63 attempted.

Some teams are lucky to get 63 total shot attempts.

In addition to NCCU having the most TOs I think I've ever seen in a game, Vols also had 21 O boards. So they had A LOT of possessions.


edit--however there is nothing remotely impressive about beating NCCU; look at their season results, they get clobbered by everybody they play, including other low majors; they have surrendered 119 or more 4 times already this season

With a 92-83 victory over SF NAU Head Coach Loree Payne becomes all time winning WBB coach at NAU!

Keep getting her seasoned as a coach in case Langley doesn't improve during the next year or two. Maybe we can bring her back home to Montlake eventually. :rolleyes:

Saw your post about them scoring 130+, paired with Central’s record and decided that I wouldn’t watch. Looks like I didn’t miss much.

Holy smokes. They must have. Wow to go from tournament team last season (28-2) to 2-10 this season, they must have a new roster of teammates.
 
Kentucky got off to a terrible start but still managed to beat Purdue by 30.
 
UCLA crushed Long Beach St. Gardiner didn't play, is she injured? Dugalic, Betts and Barker had their way w/ 22/8, 22/10 and 19/10.
 
Eastern Washington is another team that has fallen off a cliff. Went 29-6 last year and made the Tourney, I believe that was a program best season. 2-8 now this year. They did lose most of their team either to graduation or to the portal, so not entirely surprising.

Got thumped by Gonzaga today 79-50, had no answer for Ejim, she led everybody w/ 28 points. No answer for Turner and O'Connor either. 19 and 18, combined 14-25 shooting and 9-15 behind the arc.
 
Middle Tennessee has a lead on #13 Kansas State at halftime. Fo r those talking schedules.

I'm amazed that Payne has remained here in Flagstaff. She did sign a 5-year extension in 2022. As you probably know before coming to Flagstaff in 2017 Payne enjoyed seven highly successful seasons at the University of Puget Sound.

I have no doubt in my mind that coach Payne would be successful at a higher level. In addition to her prowess as a coach I really appreciate her calm, thoughtful demeanor on the sidelines.

My next opportunity to see the Jacks will be on the 29th when they travel down to Phoenix to take on Grand Canyon in a battle for the bragging rights to Arizona women's basketball.

Grand Canyon has already beaten ASU and the kitties. The Jacks don't play the Devils but they spanked Barnes' squad here in Flag.

I think this has come up before, but I was a fan when she was a player at Washington. I was aware of her stint at UPS, that's where I spent my Fr. year of college (long before she was there).

2nd most points NCCU has scored all year; highest in a road game

I noticed that. NCCU only scored 18 in the first half, I think Tennessee might've relaxed a bit with an insurmountable lead at that point.

Or...they were conserving energy for the offensive end of the floor.
 
I'll be extremely happy when conference season gets revved up. Until then, I'll shift the bulk of my focus to the CFP and the volleyball tourney.

I see that you've hired @nwhoopfan as your Jinxing Consultant. :p

It certainly worked well. K-State ended up beating MTSU much worse than Tennessee did, and on a neutral court at that.
Expand ...
Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but maybe it's the board? @nwhoopfan is simply the most frequent bold proclaimer, but lately pretty much anyone who sticks their neck out and makes a claim ends up eating crow. Thus: Stanford will not win another game this season! The ACC will get no tournament teams! Mulkey will go undefeated and be anointed Sportswoman of the Year!
