good news is we added 7 to the lead so far, bad news it is only 7

Cox is such a matchup nightmare for other teams.

Kalani with legit reach in, TCU called for T for slapping ball after foul.

I'd rather see Moon and Chou and the managers in there to rest the others than win by 30.

Yeah surprised Moon isn't in the game. I would have let her play most of the 4th. Up 30-40 and the starters still playing major minutes.

Just not the same well-oiled machine without Kristy. Great individual play, but as I suspected there is a little too much dribbling and not enough sharp crisp passes except between Kalani and Cox.

Mark my words this is going to be just fine until we get to the elite 8.

37 ahead and Kalani isn't resting. I hope we don't regret it tomorrow night.

94-48 final. McDonough gets a rebound; Chou misses a 3.

Didi is like a defensive Nina Davis, if that makes sense. Good things just happen when she's involved on the court.

Could this be about "style points" for the NCAA seeding?

The 46-point win is the largest margin of victory ever in the Big XII WBB Tournament. The Lady Bears shot 60% which set another record for a basketball game at this event. ">

Wow. I got to wonder which game you were watching. The one I saw had Baylor shooting a season-high 60% from the field while holding TCU to their lowest point total of the year. We definitely will miss Kristy in several respects, but don't tell me that the guards who played today didn't play an outstanding game as well as everybody else. Landrum and Morris combined to hit 63% and had 31 points between them. Not to mention they also each had a 3:1 assist/turnover ratio You cannot possibly ask for anything better than that in their new roles.

I would tend to call having 9 and 6 assists from your 2 guards is a pretty well-oiled machine...

Ditto. I really thought with that huge lead we might sit Kalani and Lauren Cox both for the fourth quarter like we did yesterday. I'm not sure I understand the logic of not doing that.
