Arkansas

[BigT14]

I think we come out with a win Arkansas has a short bench. I think it will be a close game but the sooners will come out on top.

Looks like Nancy Mulkey may attend the game:

KayKay on the bench all game? Did she get in trouble?

 

[SoonerNorm]

Missing layups drives me crazy!

Nice defense to force the shot clock violation … good to see that.
And Derica is shooting well. Hopefully, she'll continue to get looks.

 

[BigT14]

We need to rebound. And play defense on the bigs.

 

[SoonerNorm]

If we would use pump fakes we wouldn't get as many shots blocked.

Is espn3 cutting anyone else's game off for commercials?

Yes. Would probably draw a few fouls too.
And as you noted earlier, too many missed shots around the bucket.
Gotta finish those.

They are playing with more insensity and fight today.

They won't say she is in trouble but, when a coach announces before the game that a player won't play, she's in trouble for something.

Liked when we were in that trapping press. Forced a few turnovers and they looked frazzled - especially without their point guard. Then, we went to a zone and they seemed to get comfortable. Hope to see that press in the 2nd half - we've got a little more depth than they do.

Our trap was effective. Not sure why we changed to a zone.

It's a good thing Arkansas can't make free throws or they would have a double digit lead.

We have to realize that they are not going to call fouls on Arkansas inside. The idea of going inside when we let the defense recover before going up for the shot simply won't work. I don't care about pump fakes. Shoot before the defense gets a chance to block the shot. They are not going to call fouls on those pump fakes. We have zilch from inside. That one block on Maddie told the story. West blocked the shot, but she also hit both wrists on the downswing. Still a foul. Instead, they call it on Maddie.

We took some very poor shots in the first half, off balance. Also, a few bad passes.

I wonder if Kay Kay will play in the second half.

The officials kind of helped Arkansas by calling a few phantom fouls early.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Between ViVi and Treece, we have 2 points and 2 rebounds.

The announcers said Kay Kay would sit the whole game.

 

[sybarite]

That is sending a major message. Get to work Kay Kay.

They are winning the boards, frustratingly so.

Carolyn Peck is driving me nuts calling KayKay kye-lon.

Still no Kellogg. Would love to know if she is healthy. Would like to see what she can do, but maybe she is healthy and not showing enough in practise.
