Wow, Z had an amazing game! I had forgotten about that. She looked terrific!

Experience on that team was kind of the flip of this team. Then: experienced guards, young bigs. Now: experienced bigs, young guards. Everyone shot great in that game. We would need that tonight to win.

As for Poppens, a preseason All-Big 12 player, the skills she brings to the table are multi-fold.“She flops well,” Williams said. “Other than that, she works hard every possession. She doesn’t take anything for granted. She’s a great offensive rebounder. She finishes around the rim, she’s strong and she knows how to seal her defender around her.”

She flops well...

Yeah, Klamath, I have a feeling someone will be pointing that quote out to Pop before the game.

It's pretty easy for Destiny to talk big when she has Griner carrying her and her team.

She takes the charge and it's usually not flopping, IMO. I wish she was flopping and not taking the hard charge because I worry about her hitting her head.

I hope everyone plays well.....but I really hope Anna can have the game of her life. I think this is probably the healthiest she has ever been playing Griner. Would be nice to see her block a couple of her shots......and hit some 3's.

I think our best shot would be for Anna to keep out of foul trouble and for us to shoot a high high 3 point percentage. Oh, and that Baylor has a bit of an off night.........

I'm thinking this is probably the healthiest Anna has ever been, period.

The game is in fact on FSN-SW.

Pop is playing with a sore elbow apparently.

What channel on direct tv, ya I'm lazy.

 

[mred]

Dunno. Dish here.

These TV guys are horrible.

 

[2020cy]

Don't think I have it on my package anyway. Score?

 

[mred]

16-5 Baylor at around 10:30 left in the first. It isn't going well.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Yikes down 11 only Nikki has scored.

 

[mred]

30-16 now. ISU offense has picked up slightly.

 

[2020cy]

I suggest you watch the men's game for awhile.

 

[mred]

I'm definitely following both games. Watching more of the men's game the last 15 minutes or so.

35-19 Baylor at half. ISU had it down to 30-19 with a few chances to cut it to single digits.

 

[cyclone5435]

Not going to win many games when Pop and Hallie combine for 0 points at halftime.

Not to mention 15 turnovers at half, with 8 from the point guard.

 

[BoxsterCy]

Now nine TO on Moody. :sad:
