Perspective:

Cougs lost to Oregon by 4 and 8 and to UCLA by 2,
and beat Arizona by 2.

And lost to us by 22 and 28.

I certainly agree with this observation.  We will see how we do on the second round of some games--the losses to Colorado and UCLA were not good, certainly, but when we play at our best I think we are the best team in the country.  When we play at our worst Colorado can beat us.  When we have an average game we can beat most of the other conference teams but certainly not all.

I wish I could have seen the game.  At least if it has been on Pac 12 it would be replayed at some point--but not even that.  I set up a screen recorder to record the game off my PC but the file became too long and the recorder crashed.  So nothing.  Sigh.

On the other hand, it looks like a good effort and certainly a good result.  We have very experienced guards and they are showing how to play defense.  Our posts are not so experienced and they have a ways to go.

The Brink/Belibi/Prechtel rotation is curious.  I really thought that Tara would have two of them on the floor at the same time a lot this season.  But it sure does seem as if Belibi is playing with less confidence than she did earlier on.   Nice to see Prechtel hit some shots.
