We get groceries from Food Lion and have never seen/looked for these. Hmm. (But on the other hand, ever since 2020, we have used their pickup services, so..). My glucose level is already rising just looking at them.
Why do coaches feel as if they can guard Crooks for 40 minutes with single coverage?
Clearly nobody is having much luck guarding her this year. Maybe it's the old philosophy of let her do her thing and try to stop everybody else.
Does Iowa State have a zone buster?
Not today. They only made like 2 3s this game. One being a contested 3 for the win. And not any other day where you let Crooks get an easy 40. She actually looked sick today.
I’m not sure why more teams don’t try to speed it up against Iowa State. While I’m a fan of Crooks and think her conditioning is generally better than she gets credit for, she’s not a gazelle getting up the floor.
It’s only the Gators’ second-worst loss, after Navy.
Sooooo the hapless San Jose Spartans 1-10 have been inspired by the home cooking in conference. At the end of one they're leading Sacramento State 24-14 in an effort to support the home team sweep of all MW games. If this holds the basement classic against 1 and 10 Grand Canyon will be impacted. The Spartans are led by former NAU reserve Ally Cummings, who had an awkward tumble in the second quarter trying to retrieve a loose ball.
KU had their top 2 scorers out, but I don’t think that would have helped them speed up. They look like a team solidly committed to a half court offense. At one point they had a 3 on 1 breakaway that was THE slowest and most unorganized effort I have seen in a while. They almost blew it.
