Mechelle Voepel and Charlie Creme of espnW
look ahead to what we might expect from Monday's matchups

Excerpt
"How will Cal's Kristine Anigwe match up against Baylor twin towers Kalani Brown and Lauren Cox?

Voepel: In Baylor's lone loss this season, against Stanford, Brown and Cox both had bad games. That almost never happens. They were a combined 3-of-11 from the field for seven points in that game, and Cox played just 15 minutes because coach Kim Mulkey was irritated with her effort. Cox took that to heart. She has been terrific the rest of this season, and so has Brown.

Angiwe has faced Baylor before, though, in the NCAA second round. She had 20 points and 11 rebounds in an 86-46 loss in 2017. She had 18 points and 22 rebounds in Cal's first-round victory over North Carolina, but it will be hard for her to dominate the boards like that against Baylor.

Creme: Anigwe has been a rebounding machine all season. I'm not sure what's more impressive, her 33 straight double-doubles or the fact that she led the nation in rebounding by more than three boards per game. She is Cal's biggest threat and every team knows she is going to attack the glass, yet no one has been able to stop her.

The 6-4 senior faced UConn's Napheesa Collier and had 10 points and 14 rebounds. Anigwe had 25 and 24 against Stanford with Alanna Smith. Against Oregon and Ruthy Hebard, she posted 23 points and 18 rebounds.

But she has not faced what she is about to face on Monday -- two players her size or taller. Baylor's 6-7 Kalani Brown and 6-4 Lauren Cox pose a challenge unlike any in the sport this season for an opposing post player. Not only will Anigwe have to score against Brown and Cox to keep Cal in the game, but she will have to figure out a way to defend two opposing bigs who can move from high to low post adeptly without getting into foul trouble.

Anigwe will probably get her rebound numbers. That is what she does best, and she is relentless in her pursuit of the ball along with becoming an even more intelligent rebounder in her final season, too. But scoring consistently and slowing down the Baylor inside offense is another thing. That is, ultimately, where I expect Anigwe and Cal to struggle, with Baylor moving on to the Sweet 16."

If you have Amazon Prime Video you should be able to use the ESPN app to watch the game if they are doing whip around. That's how I watched game one.
Probably can get in via the XBOX ESPN app or watch it on your computer with the Watch ESPN app. I haven't checked those out specifically but but they should also work.

Wow, a blast from the past with Recee Caldwell. Committed to Baylor initially coming out of HS. Went to UCLA instead, but one year only. Transferred to Texas Tech and played two years. I did not know that she had moved on to Cal as a graduate transfer. We did well with graduate transfer, maybe Cal did as well. I am not similar with the Cal team.

Your tricking me Anigwe is from Arizona but 3 years older than Bickle. Also 4 inches taller so is that Forbes? Final answer.
