Good luck Myrtle. Hey if the entire UCONN can be shown cheering madly for the Cardinals on HBO, why not me.

Apart from the Cardinal crowd's ritzy, glitzy hobnobbing from Nob Hill to Silicon Valley -- I ask you seriously, Rebkellians -- does Stanford have anything close to the individual basketball talent of the 'cocks? Close? Honestly?
If Stanford wins or even keeps the game tight, that will lucidly limn the technical coaching chops of Video Vanderveer. |

Vanderveer is a much better coach than Staley. That's what gives Stanford the edge.

In Stanford's win vs N. Dame, 76-75, every N. Dame point was scored by a McDonald's AA. Stanford had 9 points scored by a McD's AA, Erica McCall.
Will over talent!!

Tara will have a game plan. We will see if a) the ladies can actually do it and b) how SC reacts to it and c) if Davis and Gray are hitting shots in addition to Wilson and d) who gets into foul trouble when.
Do they have a chance? no. But then they didn't really have a chance against ND either did they? We're ok as underdogs...sometimes.

Taraligious faith is one thing. Facts are another.
These numbers may be slightly off, but Stanford's average 40 yard sprint speed is about 39 minutes and their average vertical leap is about two inches.
S. Car. has basketball goddess A'ja Wilson, back court star Allisha Gray, draft altering Kaela Davis (according to LaChina), Bronx bombshell Bianca Cuevas, and freshman phenom PG Tyasha Harris. The Gamecocks shot 58% against the mighty Seminoles.
Stanford has baby-face fashion model types like Brittany McPhee and Karlie Samuelson, who combined for a highly unlikely 10-17 on three-point shots against Notre Dame, an unknown Sheila from Oz, and a point guard with a gesundheit name.
This could be an unguardable blowout if A'ja is crashing, Kaela is slashing and Allisha-Bianca-Tyasha are dashing.
Okay Tara: Stop 'em all, stop 'em all, the long and the short and the tall . . . .

These commentators are sick with thier worship of UCon. I am not saying they aren't good but they aren't even playing in the 1st game. Then they go to talk about Miss St and mention SC last. SC is the only other 1 seed to make it to the FF. Give them some respect as they ARE playing in the 1st game and they talked less about them than the other teams.

It's true, and if there's any decency in the world, MS will beat SC for the NC.

Having teams volunteer to make hand clap videos in the beginning of the year is one thing but doing it again in the final 4 is just too much. Let it go... its like they get royalties from this song for as much as they play it.

Huge for Harris to hit that 3 since Stanford isn't guarding her... let's see how long Stanford lets her shoot and whether she can take advantage.

This one may be over before we even get started. South Carolina looks like a women among girls. 9-4 SC

Already I've seen Wilson fouled about least 3 times where no foul was called. I see already how this game is going to be called. I believe they are trying to set it up so the Samualson sisters will play each other. After all that will be a well watched game.

Dave O.B. just said (I'm paraphrasing) "There are a lot of other celebrities here. We'll get to show them during our second game".
So is ESPN expecting a UConn blowout and they need celebrities for filler time?
