Schedule going forward is more favorable. We just have to keep winning and eventually the AP will have to acknowledge us

USC is down this year 13-9. JuJu Watkins was All American. Home game but Super Bowl Sunday. I hope we get a good crowd.

Even without Dolan we have opportunity to win 6 of last 7 and finish 12-6 in B10. I don't know if double bye is possible - 12-6 may not be good enough to get us into top 4

UCLA, Michigan, Ohio State and Iowa are tough

JuJu Watkins has not played, and will not play, a single game this season due to injury. Not sure what the relevance of her being an All American is to our chances of winning this game, or drawing a crowd, since she won't be playing.

Tough start, Wallace playing with a broken nose, we have two players on the bench with 2 fouls and one with three mid way through the 2nd Qtr. Down 30-20 and Oregon shooting 65%

Benson, Parchment, Lety with 2 fouls each. Brown-Hagger with 3 fouls. Oregon doesn't have anyone with more than one foul just under 4 minutes to go in the second. Down 38-21 At half now and Lety with 3 fouls also 45-24.

Briefly tied it up, 49-49 then a no call on Parchment getting hurt and out of the game. due to head injury for the rest of the quarter. Webber gets knocked down, no call and yet we hang in there. Tied 51-51 after three, We outscored them 27-6 in the third and just flat out played harder and beat the refs too as the game has gotten even more physical.

Jackson had no business dribbling through two defenders. Pass the ball to a wide open Webber or just reset the offense.

Come all that way back and take an 8 point lead and then lose. Heartbreaker!. Maddie missed 2 layups where she was in front of everyone. She shot 3-11. 0-4 from 3. Not like her. It seems like if her or Gretchen shoot bad we lose. Still had 10 points.
What a 3rd quarter though.

If JuJu was playing USC would not be 13-9. With her last year they were 31-4 (16-1 B10) . If she was playing we would have ZERO chance of winning the game. :mad:
