Monday (3/25): NCAA 2nd round games

[Blueballer]

Ehh... not really

Baylor is on an entirely different level separate from the rest of the Big 12. If they continue to play their game, they will be fine. Not saying they are locked to a win a national title but to say Baylor should be worried because their opponents crap their pants in the NCAAT makes no sense to me.

Maybe a bit overkill. Lets see if they can get over the hump. No doubt they are an elite team but it only takes on bad game and its over. Baylor has had some great teams over the years get knocked out early before they were suppose to. I do feel this team is a little bit different though but thats my opinion.

I respect your opinion. They are the overall 1 and have played like it. That being said if other teams also "Play their game" they will be fine too. That's the key isn't it? Which team can play "their game" while keeping someone else from playing theirs. I would have to say Baylor still has the best odds of getting this done but they could have a clunker too.

Mik was Mik - strong drives, big rebounds, just solid. Destiny turned it into a different gear in the second half. She made some really nice passes and had some nice drives. She really got the ball in the right place at the right time. I like Corosdale a lot. She played tough D and snagged some nice rebounds. I think she needs to expand her game offensively a little, but she plays so well in the system. I think she will work nice with Kennedy Brown. I’m worried it may end the same too...

Washington had herself a nice game it looks like. McWilliams is a non-entity on offense other than hitting FTs late in games.

Carrington busting out. 2 quick 3s and a 2.

Let's see. Cal outscored UNC by 31 over the 2nd thru 4th quarter. Baylor beat Cal by almost 40. How did UNC beat Notre Dame?

Flunked math.

Transitive property fail.

 

[SECbbfan24]

Can this BYU team pull off the upset?

Love how fearless they are playing right now.

This is the worst Stanford has looked since the Oregon blowout. Everyone except Carrington shooting 3's like they're scared.

 

[SECbbfan24]

Stanford is 4-23 from 3

Yikes

[nwhoopfan]

Was kind of expecting Stanford to come out and look a lot better after halftime. They're hitting more shots now, but this is a helter skelter game and they look a bit out of control. Maybe that's all to BYU's credit.

 

[Orangutan]

Not disastrous. Just shows that their conference was weaker than it seemed.

I thought the Big 12 seemed bad all year long and I have the shady tweets to prove it!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Carrington and Williams have combined for 25 of Stanford's 40. Not to be outdone, Gonzales has 21 of BYU's 35.

 

[SECbbfan24]

BYU in a major scoring drought

 

[IrishTiger]

That’s game I think. Stanford has taken over

 

[nwhoopfan]

Smith really struggled in the first half but she's lighting it up in the 2nd half.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Best pair of NFL QBs in the stands watching a game: has to be Steve Young and Russell Wilson for the BYU-Stanford game.

 

[SECbbfan24]

what the hell is Stanford doing lol

 

[nwhoopfan]

3 straight steals and layups by BYU has shaved a big lead down to 9, plus a 3. 9-0 run.

1:17 left

 

[nwhoopfan]

Gonzales from BYU has 32 now.

 

[SECbbfan24]

Gonzales from BYU has 32 now.

Only a freshman too. Impressive.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Only a freshman too. Impressive.

Along w/ Chase and Johnson that's a nice trio of guards and all will be back next year.

 

[nwhoopfan]

72-63 final. Big game for Smith, 23 points and 14 rebounds I think. Most of it in the 2nd half. Stanford FT shooting was fairly poor (8-19, worse than I thought).

They said they only lose one senior starter and the rest return

BYU should be one to watch next year. I'm impressed with how they played and competed. Good for them, they made things with Stanford really interesting there for a bit.
