ESPN article about the growth of Texas' Joyner Holmes and our Alanna Smith and how even though they were non-factors in the November game, could be critical players in tomorrow evening's game:

Obviously, I hope it will be Alanna who comes up with another big game and our defense can get Holmes in early foul trouble, like we did in the first matchup.
Texas has a lot of scoring threats (McCarty, Holmes, Lang), we need to bring our A game on both ends of the floor. As good as our defense is, it's hard to imagine holding them to 59 points like we did last time. Erica can't have one of her off games and Bri/Marta might need to contribute some points themselves to open up the floor.
