JuJu gets a ton of free throws, and makes them at a high rate. Her last two games she is 24-26.

She is very good, but her gravy is inside the arc. There is just a certain element that needs her to be better than CC. This Syla Swords though is going to start getting big time press she’s the real deal.

This is the first time I’ve seen her play and that Britt Prince who’s 5-11 for Nebraska and I think Ohio State & Maryland have some precocious freshman as well

We will get blown out if we continue to make awful passes. I hope I’m wrong!

We get blown out either way.

TCU with the frog skin court. I think that's what they are going for anyway. Not a fan.

Colorado down by 11 nearing end of 3rd. This is where I turned it last week when they were down 14 to WV., so I'm staying with it for a bit longer. I imagine Iowa needs Colorado to lose this game.

Must be family and friends night at #11 TCU, because those are the only people in attendance at the arena.

Curious why we need Colorado to lose to TCU? What's the connection?

If 11-2 with last two wins over teams in the top 15, Colorado would likely have hopped Iowa into the top 25, and pushed Iowa off the board.

Of course, even though they did climb back to within 5pts in the 4th quarter, TCU hit the big shots in the last minutes and iced the game . Colorado now 10-3.

Notable games later this afternoon/tonight:

Mississippi St (13-1) vs. #16 Kentucky
#5 Texas vs. #9 Oklahoma
and
Rutgers vs. #8 Maryland (if you want to preview MD)

 

[cmhawks99]

Been watching this SC/Mizzou game. SC plays incredible D and will win going away but even they miss plenty of layups. 2 in a row just recently.

I thought the Kentucky game might be closer, given the Mississippi St record, but just goes to show that some of these big non-con records can be deceiving.
Kentucky 91
MSST 69

#20 California lost by 11 to Clemson (8-5)
Didn't have that game circled.

Maryland rolled Rutgers as expected.
Up to Iowa to bring them down.

Texas and Oklahoma pretty much tied going into the 4th. Good game. I think it's pretty interesting that Texas has only taken 5 3pt. shots through the 3 quarters (3-5).

 

[Scott559]

Oklahoma numerous unforced TO’s coming down the stretch, 25 so far in the game likely going to be the difference in the game.

 

[citizenHawk]

Texas finished with just six 3pt. Shots (4-6). Five of those shots taken by one player (Lee).

Oklahoma was just 2-17 from the arc.

Weird stat for top 10 teams.

Watching the game and trust me I know it’s just one game but I came away thinking Iowa could compete with either team.

 

[MitchLL]

The 3rd quarter in that game must have taken nearly an hour(only a slight exaggeration).

There was a nearly 15 minute replay review of a near brawl on a rebound.
Almost 60 fouls in the game.
I agree...Iowa could compete with either team.
BTW...Sahara Williams from West Waterloo, a one time recruiting target, really struggled in the game for Oklahoma.

I am very much intrigued by how the USC‘s and UCLA’s of the world perform on the road in the Big Ten
