RE: WBB: Stanford vs. Texas elite eight Sunday 6pm - TheFarm07 - 03-27-2022

We lead 14-14 after one quarter thanks to a buzzer beating two-pointer by Jones.

We are struggling with turnovers - 6 including a 5-second inbound violation and we are shooting just 39% including 0/3 from long range. Five players (Brink, Lexie, Jones, Belibi and Emma-Nnopu) all have one foul.

Texas is shooting 33% from the field but two of their key bench players Moore and Matharu already have two fouls each, including some words exchanged between Jones and Matharu after one tie-up.

Still the turnovers and still poor 3 point shooting.  And the Texas defense wears on you and is usually better late.  The 2nd quarter is becoming crucial.

What was Cam thinking?

Why are you surprised about our Turnovers? It's one of our specialties when pressed. Now we are having major pbs inbounding the ball. Tara, are you not the coach? Didn't you prepare the team for that? Give me a break.

Give you a break?  Why. Of course she prepares her team for the press.  Whether they execute or not is another matter.


RE: WBB: Stanford vs. Texas elite eight Sunday 6pm - MV72018 - 03-27-2022

Anna with a foul with 1 second left in H1? Hard to believe that blunder.

If you read carefuly, you'd have realized that that comment was about our problems inbounding the ball. Obviously I know that she prepared them for the press.

So much easier to coach from the comfort of your couch.

She got caught guarding Ebo, their center.  She missed both free throws and Anna only has one foul.   Stanford up 3 after going 1 for 8 from 3 point range.  I'll take that and hopefully they can hit a couple threes in the 2nd half.


RE: WBB: Stanford vs. Texas elite eight Sunday 6pm - TheFarm07 - 03-27-2022

We lead 30-27 at the half; we are still struggling with 9 turnovers in the first half.

On offense, we are doing inside the arc (10/20) while struggling mightily from long range (1/8), but we got to the FT line nine times and converting 77% of them.

For Texas, it is the converse. They are (4/6) - 67%, while even though Harmon and Allen-Taylor are nailing the midrange jumper, the Longhorns are actually 6/21 from two-point range (29%).

Brink and Jones have two fouls each, but four of the Longhorn players have at least two (Gaston (3), Matharu, Moore & Lattimore) fouls each.

Jones is on the verge of a double-double (9 points, 9 rebounds), but Lexie is our leading scorer with 12 points on 5/9 shooting. We've found success with the backdoor cut, but Texas will surely try to take that away from us in the second half.

I hope the refs continue to call it tight; the Longhorn players are extremely (too) aggressive and then when they get whistled, they get upset that they are not getting away with it. But we can't depend on the officiating crew to save us.

We'll need to continue to stay aggressive offensively and not settle for a long range shot as one of the ESPN halftime analysts pointed out.

Meanwhile, on D, they're tough especially Harmon, who's nailed down a couple of midrange jumpers despite being closely guarded by Wilson or a Hull sister.


RE: WBB: Stanford vs. Texas elite eight Sunday 6pm - 81alum - 03-27-2022

I am pleased that we cut down on turnovers in the second quarter and made a couple of treys.  I hope Tara pulls a halftime rabbit out of her hat and we get some separation.  Love those back doors.  Don't love the angry criticism by over enthusiastic fans.  Tara is delivering all the halftime criticism that can help.  We do need Brink to stay on the floor.

Apparently, for good reason. They are definitely a difficult team for us.


RE: WBB: Stanford vs. Texas elite eight Sunday 6pm - CompSci87 - 03-27-2022

I'm happy to be up 3 at halftime. The team is playing tough. As Lexie said in the interview, the way to deal with a physical team is to be just as physical.

What I didn't like were some unforced turnovers, and leaving Texas open for 3s at times. I guess sagging off #31 may have been in the game plan, but other players were getting open too.


RE: WBB: Stanford vs. Texas elite eight Sunday 6pm - joemontes - 03-27-2022

The first half is as expected - Stanford struggles against Texas' pesky defense but finds a way to score.  What's frustrating to see is BRINK getting flustered as she is unable to adjust to the defensive schemes that Texas throws upon her.

This is going to be a grind, a battle of wills, a close game until the very end...

I just hope that my weak and fragile heart can survive  through this game..


RE: WBB: Stanford vs. Texas elite eight Sunday 6pm - M T - 03-27-2022

Up 3 after a poor half is ok.  Now, let's have a good half.

Biggest missed sequence of fouls as at 1:50 in Q1.  One of the Hull suffers a 2-handed push, and then a butt, and then a grab of her hand, sending her to the ground, in about 5 seconds.  No call.


RE: WBB: Stanford vs. Texas elite eight Sunday 6pm - DaBears17 - 03-27-2022

Brink is ready for the 2nd half!


leftcoast - Leftcoast - 03-27-2022

Well, nice to have Brink back in the 2nd half!  Two baskets, two rebounds in the first two minutes

This was the #2 seed I least wanted to see in our region. Iowa, with Caitlin Clark; Baylor and even UConn would have been a better matchup for us
