Going against my heart and instinct, which almost always makes me root for the underdog, to root instead for Stanford, simply because the Cardinal legion has a much better chance to crucify the antichristal Notre Dame in the E8. |

No lack of heart in these undersized (for the most part) Lady Bears! I’m e-mailing Coach O’Regan at JMU to see if he’ll consider a home-and-home with them.

This is quite a change of pace from the last game

Stanford gets no where near the criticism they deserve for playing such ugly unwatchable basketball.
Every game I see of theirs they try to UGLY it up.
These teams like Fraud, Oregon State, NC State, and Arizona State, that are so committed to physicality and defense are enemies of growing the sport!
And all of this happening right in front of DEB A! The Horror!

Do either of these teams belong in the tournament?
MoSt playing decent defense but there's nada sophisticated about their offense or individual player creation. Don't think Harper will get a boost for the LV job based on this half of basketball, though she looks good in a black dress if that counts. |

The fans who stayed for both games are wondering if this is the same sport

As an aside, one of the refs (the blonde female) is an ACC/CAA official and generally disliked in Harrisonburg. I won’t tell you what she’s nicknamed but it’s not terribly complimentary. However, she seems to be dishing it out to both sides here.

If Gartner was my center, she’d be in the pool in the off-season. The girl has good skills, but she needs to drop at least 30 lbs to be really effective. She’s just a sophomore, which makes her skill set pretty impressive. Most big girls don’t have it until their junior year.

How in hell can Coffee see around the black mask? It looks sometimes like her peripheral vision is affected.

I don't understand why she put Franklin back on the floor in a fouling situation when she already has four.

Stanford will be the only team in the E8 to get there without beating a P5 team

So does Smith. And in the last minute she really had nothing to lose. You just have to try.
These Missouri State kids played with a lot of heart and have nothing to hang their heads about. I just wish they’d shot the way they usually do. But if Stanford plays this badly Monday they’ll be going home too.

Worst offense by two teams I've seen in a long time, each shooting 25%. MoSt has a nanoscopic four assists on 16 baskets, and the Cardinal makes three of 29 arc heaves. Cancel the crucifixion. |

Originally I was disappointed that this game wasn't being shown down here, but I should probably be thankful. 25% for a whole game is putrid.

As Antonelli said, "Is this what Cinderella looks like?".
Perhaps, but it is what hell must feel like!

I hope they don't spend all day tomorrow on the scout. They friggin need to get in the gym and shoot until their arms fall off. I can't remember the last time they shot THIS badly.
