A tight, tough one that we have to grind out is good as long as we win. I like that we had to fight at the end. Brown was off but Cox was on.

Between the slop, the refs, and murphys law I am sure glad this one is over.

Whew! I think my blood pressure went up during that one! Happy that we won.

Between the almost nonexistent jump shooting and poor rebounding in the second half is indicative or tired legs. We really need these next few days off.

Just looked and saw Wallace was 2-12... but she did have 12 assists.

To put it in perspective, that's the kind of game UT had against TCU.

The Lady Bears needed this type of game. One where everyone had to dig deep to come away with the W.
Baylor met and turned away the challenge presented by the Sooners.

Good for them.

I totally agree. This team was tired but dug deep to pull out a hard-fought win. You have to give OU credit for their effort. They played hard and gave us their best.

I knew OU was going to be a totally different team than the one we played earlier in the season. They are much improved. The way they dispatched of WVU was extremely telling. The just practically shut down Muldrow and Davenport - and those 2 lit us up like a Christmas tree when we played them in Morgantown.

Really good win for us. Happy to have our players finally getting almost a full week off before their next game. I expect to see a much vitalized team against TCU. Pretty or ugly, doesn't matter. Just Win...
