I don’t think the Michigan freshman class is overrated at all. I wish UConn landed a couple of those players.

I agree. It's not close to being overrated. Those girls are all legit.
 
The Raiders were able to hang with Grand Canyon for the first 17 minutes of the game. Gritty, well coached by Kari Hoffman and always working, Wright State showed character. Her team was on a string and her squad played for each other. Love to see this type of approach in Tempe.

Lopes have a comfortable 62-46 lead after 3 quarters.

Tomorrow the Lopes take on the Owls of FAU who beat Georgia Southern in OT earlier today.
That will be a 2:30 tip on ESPNPlus.

Sorry, not tomorrow, Sat.

Washington led 22-6 after Q1, played even the rest of the way. Sellers is becoming a star, but other guards have stagnated or regressed. Suddenly Tayra Eke transfer from Eastern Michigan is their second best offensive player. That's good she's contributing, but really not happy with what Daniels, Ladine and Stines have been providing lately, not to mention the bench is giving them almost nothing.


Looking like another year of poor perimeter shooting and low scoring, just what I was hoping for. The previous 7 seasons of this haven't quite satisfied me, give me some more!

Hey hey hey BYers! Just a few weeks left in the year (shriek!), and some upcoming top 25 games that will have some of us on the edges of our seats. Note that some of the rankings may not have trickled down on all days from the ESPN website, so ¯\(ツ)/¯

Three top 25 matchups this week:

Just noticed the Tennessee vs Memphis match up. It's likely not going to be competitive but I'm curious as to whether DeeDee Hageman who transfered there will play. Haven't seen her on any boxscores to date which strikes me as odd.

There were rumours about academics being the issue behind why she couldn't go to Old Miss. Wonder if similar issues are happening here as well.

Not just rumors.

"In fact, the former Michigan State Spartans standout will be sidelined until December due to an academic eligibility issue, Tigers coach Alex Simmons told The Commercial Appeal.​
​
While Simmons said she could be eligible sooner, Hagemann is set to suit up for Memphis in time for its home game against Tennessee on Dec. 18 (7:30 p.m. CT) at FedExForum."​

DeeDee Hagemann, Memphis women's basketball star transfer, out until December. Here's why

Memphis women’s basketball will be without All-Big Ten transfer point guard DeeDee Hagemann when it faces Dawn Staley’s South Carolina squad Tuesday.

It’s been awhile now, but it’s hard to have gone from the ultra-scorers style with Plum to an offensively lethargic team year over year.
 
In some Methodist on Methodist violence, Duke downs the feisty Terriers of Wofford 93-58. Toby Fornier led the way with 23 points off the bench. O squared had 20 points 6 rebounfs 5 assists and 4 steals off of the bench. Wofford ain't no scrubs.... they are a top 20 mid-major squad.

Oh no. That's almost always a very bad thing.

Yeah.....on a fast break, knee just buckled. Down for awhile in obvious pain :( She came out after halftime with crutches and ice wrapped around the knee.
 
Can we throw out the record book for Tennessee and Memphis? I don't think there are any Methodists or Baptists or anything involved. I know it was an intense rivalry in men's hoops for a while. Not so sure about women's. But I had to do a double take when I saw the score of 2-7 Memphis vs. 8-0 Tenn.

Again, I'm not a Dr., but that sure sounds like what happens when it's an ACL.
 
Arkansas playing Liberty should be starting soon. 6-6 Arkansas in for a long and interesting season.
 
Arky lost to Liberty 75-61. How long can Neighbors hang onto his job?



With the exception of Kevin McGuff, things tend to take a turn for the worse when a coach leaves Washington for greener pastures. It was the high water mark for Gobrecht, Daugherty (yeah I know she didn't choose to go, that was different) and Neighbors.
 
WCC play kicks off for most on Thursday. Not for Oregon St. though, they will be at a tourney in Maui, probably losing both games--Western Kentucky, then Miami. After that they return to face Gonzaga and Portland on the road. Good luck. Will most likely be 0-3 in conference already before New Year's, having already lost to Pacific.
 
Okay, now here's something I never expected to happen: Boise St. vs. North Dakota St. on B1G+. Really? I guess because it's in a tourney hosted by Washington, but not sure why they are bothering to air a game featuring no Big 10 teams.
 
That’s embarrassing for Arkansas. They are playing Troy in the third place game in the Cherokee Invitational. Meanwhile, Toledo and Liberty are playing in the championship game!
 
From the "What Do I Know Department," North Dakota St. beat Boise St. today in the Husky Classic. I guess we needed to throw out the record books for this one, because 6-5 entering the game beat 10-2. Bizon jumped out to a double digit lead early, Broncos almost caught up but couldn't quite get there.
 
THe second game of the Grand Canyon Holiday tournament for the Lopes was a replay of yesterday's game. The Owls of FSU opened the game with a three and the GCU takes command 20-9 as the first quarter ends 20-12. Lara Erikstrup continues her stellar play with 4-4 shooting and 3 boards in the first quarter.

Tierra Brown hits a three at the first half buzzer and GCU leads 39-25 at the half

Interesting half, the Owls are 11-19 from the field but the Lopes are dominant on the glass with 8 offensive boards and they've turned FAU over 13 times.


Should this score hold (and it should) the Lopes will take an 8 game winning streak into Sat. Game against Georgia Southern, who lost to FAU yesterday but beat Wright State this morning. Tip is 12:30 MST on ESPN+
