Bedlam

And I realize Maddie is a fave but her decision making is about as bad for a 6 year player that I have seen why take a turn around fade shot with 6 min left an eight point lead and 8 seconds into shot clock. Sooners may win this one but wins can't just be w and l if you want to get to the next step players really need to look at some of their choices in games and work at being better and stop only focusing what they are suppose to do well - okay soapbox over

Absolutely agree HD.
 
two evenly match teams..still anyone game to win or not
 
Truth is I do hope Maddie comes back she is a very good player just seems to either overthink or underthink not sure which and truthfully it may have lots to do with the injuries that is always tough

She needs to do what is best for her..I would tell her not to come back if it was up to me. No need to risk anymore health problems..the team isn't going anywhere
 
Take it. We played good enough to win the game. Still yo-yo performance. Gabbi had ice in her veins today.

We are playing tough defense. Our offense is just inconsistent.

That injury really didn't look good. My heart sank immediately when she went down.
 
A good win on the road in the Big Twelve. Was the cost too high? Without Maddie, this is a ninth-place in the Big Twelve team.

With Maddie on the bench early in the year, we still won games. I think you have "Maddie" in your eyes. We would be a top half competitive team, with other players stepping up.
BUT....we would not be near as good, same as if we lost Peyton.

She walked off so it could be just a bad sprain. But it's pretty over if she goes down


We looked great early- looked like we were really building it finally-then Gabbi got going out of control again.... she doesn't understand the players she takes out of the game when she plays too fast and try's to force a bunch of shots. Vivi didn't have a shot til the second quarter-Maddie didn't take a shot IN the second quarter. And Peyton had to force bad shots just trying to get something going. We know you can score a little Gabbi, that's not the point. The point is for you to get others going so that we can function as a team all game long. We play our best when Gabbi is looking for others, and our scorers are Vivi, Peyton, and Maddie. Contributions in scoring will be needed- Gabbi actually got us going but we don't want her taking 15 shots.. Gabbi is not Plum. That's just what it is. She's improving but reverts to old habits, needs to keep working.

Hopefully Maddie is okay.

I believe We lost 3 games with Maddie coming off the bench- benched early against Kentucky. Lost to Oral Roberts. Then the Cal game was when she got her spot back by a great second half.
 
Iowa State 80
#22 West Virginia 55
IS shot 51.8%. WV shot 29.7%. Carlton with 31. We swept IS.

That takes WV out of the race.

There were several games where she started, and then spent extra time on the bench, I assumed for not being aggressive enough. She played 25 minutes against Oral Roberts, so its not like her playing time was the difference in the game. Playing time vs bench time isn't starting or not starting.
My point is that this is a team game, and even if you lose your sometimes best player and leader, you don't suddenly become chopped meat. We have other players who can lead and win games.
