Maybe Oregon looks way better than normal because Duke is stuck in this zone but doesn't it look like they have the pieces to give Maryland a game? Oregon is outrebounding a big Duke team. They can throw Hebard, McGwire, and Vandenburg at Brionna Jones. They have a bunch of good three point shooters, and Maryland has struggled defending the 3.
Personnel wise Duke would have been way better off playing 7 seed Temple, they wouldn't be carving up the zone like this, they have good one on one players like Fitzgerald and Butts, but yeah this is a situation where an upset looks to help you but it doesn't, when Duke was scouting their potential 2nd round opponent.

That should have been a flagrant. No doubt about it.

Maybe they didn't look at the view from above...

Duke not going away, down 10 with 6:23 left. Still a chance here for the home team.

Duke down 8 with 5:30 left. Seen too many high seeds come back this week to think this is over.

If Duke loses, how do you evaluate their season? Losing Salvadores and Stevens, no one could expect that they would be 28-5, ACC tournament runner up, #2 seed. But to lose on your home court as a 2 seed in the 2nd round to a 10 seed is rough. I hate judging a season on one game but it has to sting for Duke.

Lexie Brown's body language is not very good for a floor general who is supposed to be a leader. Reminds me a little of DeShields, they just seem mopey when things aren't going great. She is having a very strong game but man try to rally the troops, give your teammates positive encouragement. Not seeing those intangibles you see from the best PG's.

They lost their point guard in the last game too. Down to eight players tonight.
I'm sure it stings, but I don't think it detracts from a good season.

Cooper should be ejected because it should be her 2nd flagrant.

Fist pumping so hard for Oregon right now. Anyone who says the Pac-12 is a "weaker" conference than anyone else hasn't been paying attention, and this proves it.
