Maybe balance has returned to the women's game as UCLA beat South Carolina 77-61. USC is certainly not unstoppable this year.

Mod Note: I changed the title on this post as I think a post for important non-OU games is a good idea.

Duke beat KSU 73-62.....OU plays Duke on 11/27 at 3:30

LSU beat Washington 68-67....Last second shot to win it in a game LSU was behind almost the entire game...early KM is having trouble getting this team to play well. Struggled with Murray State in game last week.

Georgia Tech beat Oregon 74-58
 
i looked on ESPN, and according to their analytics, Duke is the favorite in our matchup tomorrow by 61.2%!!

This would motivate me if I were a player...being ranked higher yet still expected to lose, just because we're playing a blue blood, which has already lost a game this season?! I hope our girls can really cut down on the TOs (had 23 yesterday!), because I believe we have the better team, just have to stay w/in ourselves and not throw it away constantly.
 
TCU is going to upset a lot of people because they have one of the tallest gifted players in Prince, and they have a wealth of talent on the perimeter. Not so much the coaching IMO but the recruiting from the portal has paid massive dividends. Wish we were able to land some taller, more athletic guards this next off season because what we have right now is a liability when it comes to defense and our undersized and unathletic guards will find it difficult to find open looks outside against talented athletic teams. Duke for example. Just a bad matchup for us, exposed our weaknesses. Without Verhulst, at 6'1", being able to hit outside we would have been blown out. You could tell Vann was one, if not two, steps too slow against their defenders, and Tot and Keys were just too short and unable to get off shots. Williams was a turnover bug, as last season, so that really left us with beers and Verhulst as scoring options. We need to step up our defensive intensity on the perimeter for teams like Louisville and Michigan are going to have career nights against us as Duke's guards did.
