Baylor-Oregon State thread

[wbbfan]

Wow.

Not a great finish by Baylor...

 

[Mdoggie]

Yes yes yes! Whodda thunk this FF at the beginning of the season. Pac 12 repped well!

 

[Vowelguy]

Congrats to Beavers - they deserved to win this one.

WOW!

Mulkey BLEW that game! She used 3 timeouts after made Baylor baskets! No timeouts when needed!

3 first timers! WOW!

 

[Jimbo]

Major props to Oregon State for gutting that one out. That's a tough team right there.

I'm sorry, but Mulkey loses these games for her team. That technical? Stupid. Calling your last time out with 3:55 to go in the fourth quarter? Ridiculous. Her team played with no poise down the stretch as she was increasingly pulling her hair out.

 

[iri10]

Baylor 6-14 from the line. Absolutely brutal.

 

[Eskapeesto]

I'm really gonna miss Mulkey's histrionics in our game

 

[huskeynut]

Congrats to OSU. Well played game.

Only one #1 seed remains - UCONN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Blueballer]

ONLY one #1 seed makes it the Final Four. So outside of us parity does exist.

Fire her! Lol

And you newcomers, Welcome to the WNBA....

HOLY MACKEREL!

What a clutch performance by Oregon State. They overcame so much adversity in this game: major foul trouble, cold shooting in the entire second half, and a Baylor-heavy crowd.

Just phenomenal.

Off with her head! Lol

The technical and the usage of timeouts! Wow she really had a bad game. The OSU coach really did out coach her.

Mulky is a good coach but not a great coach. Too many critical mistakes over the years that have cost her team games and maybe another championship or two. She also does not really develop the talent she recruits.

And it must be said: Two Pac-12 teams in the Final Four, for what I think is the first time ever.

Scott Rueck raised up this program from THE DEAD in just a short 4 years.

 

[housekeys]

OSU was playing with all starters handcuffed with fouls and they still beat Baylor in front of what is basically a home crowd. Congrats to OSU. Baylor got on a roll, but they never really played any team that was really good. Also, I think Nina Davis is overrated. The question for Baylor fans was can Baylor beat UConn?

 

[Jimbo]

FiveThirtyEight now has UConn's chances of winning the tournament up to 93%.

 

[Plebe]

Davis wasn't set there

I thought both of the charges called on Weisner in the 4th quarter were, in the replay, clear blocks.

That technical translated into 3 points for OSU. Difference in the final score... 3 Pts! 60-57.

 

[Boreifs]

Baylor plays great defense and runs the court very well, but no team is ever going to win a championship without hitting threes or free throws. If they had won tonight, they would not have been a major obstacle to the final game. Oregon State will be much more problematic, BUT their whole offense is off the bounce. That is a major weakness that will be exposed early next Sunday.

 

[Plebe]

I'd like to hear from "easttexastrash" right about how it worked to Baylor's advantage to have not played Oregon State yet, ya know, for that whole surprise thing.

Was I right or was I right?

I forget what you said
