Topic: Troy upset last night

[wasbarryb]

Km's team has turned me from someone who deliberately ignored women's sports, to someone who follows herd women's BB. Of course Dan's team screwing the pooch hasn't slowed that transition.  I've even taken to sometimes watching other SBC women's BB match ups.

After watching the Herd yesterday and the Troy match last night, I'm convinced the tournament is the Herd's to lose.  If they attack the remaining two games with the same intensity they played yesterday, NO ONE in this conference can stop them.

I would have liked to have gone through Troy to get there and leave no doubt, but they weren't even worthy to play us.  Otoh, beating a team 3 times is hard and ODU isn't going to roll over for us.  But given the margins of the previous games vs them they may not have an answer for us.  Yesterday, we made a lot of turnovers and mistakes but we weren't phased by them and stuck to the plan.  We looked like a machine.

Maybe a rematch with JMU in the title game. That will be tough. They've seen us twice and play physical

Both games with ODU kind of followed the middle of the season script. We fell behind by 12 early at home, and we were only up 2 at halftime in Norfolk. We have destroyed them in the second half.  The game in Norfolk wasn't as close as the final score indicated but even at that, we dominated one quarter. We were up 28 with 4 minutes left there.

Long story short, both times ODU has stayed right with us for a half but we've worn them down. We'll see how it goes tomorrow afternoon!

Any of the other three teams are capable of beating us.  Louisiana beat Troy last night even though Troy beat them twice in regular season including once by 40+ points. Odu is essentially in same boat as Louisiana was going into last night and JMU has already beaten us at home.

Bring our "A" game and we'll be a tough out but certainly not invincible.

Our NET jumped to #74 today
