I guess they don't call fouls in women's college basketball...

.
or travel or 10 second violation from what I've seen so far, as long as your uniform isn't orange. speaking of uni's, love the cuse road uni.

How we did not get Kia Nurse perplexes me...I think they tried, but she wanted UConn. What a difference that would have made...

UConn is just ridiculous

 

[rrlbees]

thanks selection committee.

 

[orangeinohio]

Lotta cold shooting hands on SU right now.

Rough going so far. Yukon just looks bigger, faster, better.
I have loved Peterson's energy & skill these years but all of the Yukon players are 6-10" taller than her.

Maybe the next batch of Orangewomen will have a better chance in a couple of years.

 

[llandz]

We do have the #2 recruiting class next year. UConn #1...But they could call a couple of fouls , like when they trip our players...

True. But still would've been down about 15 ... they're on another level

I thought they were a lot bigger too but if you look at their roster, they don't have a huge height advantage:

It feels like they do, though.

cuse can't be missing their shots when they get them

Agreed ... already at eight 3-pointers for 26 points and we're not even at halftime yet.

Roster, schmoster.
She likes to dribble in for layups. Yukon's foul lane is guarded by trees.

 

[Yegorange]

Gotta admire Alexis though. What a fighter!

Well what do you expect when Geno refers to his players as guys.

orange women are a good team, but they're playing against the NBA tonight. I don't know when UConn will be taken down, would love to see it happen tonight but not sure we can make up that deficit.

Had a glimmer of hope when Q took the excellent timeout at 5-9 and the team responded briefly ... but the cold spell after that, coupled with Nurse and Williams ... and, especially, Samuelson (sorry ... getting hot - we were doomed.
