How appropriate that KM was all in gold last night!

What a wonderful game. I hope the men can do the same tomorrow.

Indeed, indeed, indeed.

Our bench went CRAZY after that DeCosta behind the back pass. Too bad Smith couldn't finish. I've actually been noticing that Smith doesn't have the best hands in the world... She kind of peaked vs UCONN.

What an incredible game!! When our girls are motivated, the defense is on total lock-down! UT could not breathe - everything was challenged. The first half was a slug-fest, but as Kim said, we had to just stay after it. UT's bigs were just shoving Kalani in the back and just knocking her around with no calls. Compare how that game was called vs Iowa State. They were letting them bang for sure!! Unbelievably physical. I would much prefer that, though, to a refs calling every touchy foul.

We are a machine on offense, but the thing that separates us right now is the defense. Our starting 5 is suffocating! Chloe is so awesome. Does she ever get winded?? Unbelievable. Go Bears!!!

we needed a game like this... lately we have been getting to the tourney with no physical games(especially since A&M left) and it costs us.

Baylor's defeat of Texas extends the longest winning streak in D-I WBB.
After Baylor, Kentucky has the longest streak (6 straight) among Power 5 schools.
