A couple of quotes and observations from the press this morning:
The Colorado coach pretty well confirmed in the AP article that her players were told to go ahead and foul under the basket--although they went overboard and fouled in other situations too:
Tara quoted in Fitzgerald'a article stated what seems obvious:
Tim Fitzgerald pointed out that we made a season-high 27 free throws in an article appropriately entitled: "Colorado fouls up Stanford women - for a half". One of the better headline summaries of a game I've seen.

Quote:"We wanted to make sure we didn't back down. We weren't intimidated," Lappe said. "But too many fouls where we didn't have to foul.

Tara quoted in Fitzgerald'a article stated what seems obvious:
Quote:"Colorado came out and they were super-aggressive," Cardinal coach Tara VanDerveer said. "We didn't handle it well. We were more aggressive in the second half."http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cg...1NBHSQ.DTL
