OU-UCLA Game

[KCRuf/Nek]

When Maddie and Whitney went down, how many thought we would make the Sweet Sixteen? I don't think Tennessee should be all that comfortable.

I didn't. If we play like this we can beat Tenn.

Great great gameeee

You could tell just how much this win meant to Sherri.

I am so happy for Sherri and for this team. This has got to be the sweetest sixteen.

I'm beginning to believe that a "no talent" team with a coach that "can't coach" might just take OU to the sweet 16.

I hope I didn't just jinx it

You got that right! And you didn't! Super job by this TEAM and COACHING STAFF!!!

Nicole G. has been terrible tonight, IMO. Her hands are THE WORST, but everyone else has been playing their behinds off! Let's goooooo!!!!

hu? what game did you watch?????

Nice win.....I was yelling at the TV "take care of the ball" and "why the hurry to shoot the ball". JoAnna shot one from the corner with us up 12 and less than 3 minutes with 25 seconds on the clock. Don't remember if it was ellenberg or sharane done the same thing the trip earlier. Oh well, I ain't coaching.....thank goodness. My heart couldn't take it.

That, ladies, gentlemen and Syb and Tango, is about as well as OU can play and Sherri can coach.

I love McFarland.

It's hard to argue against Aaryn for MVP, but I wouldn't have minded a co-MVP between her and Joanna. So impressed with the way Joanna has stepped up this season. Loved the clutch free throws and rebounds to help put UCLA away.

Couldn't have said it better!

Yeah, I think it should have been co-MVPs but Aaryn provides the flash with the 3 pointers but Jo deserved just as much as Aaryn! They all played well, not perfect, but an overall good game!

The one where she played well despite banging with Brewer all night.

 

[KCRuf/Nek]

Actually rooting for KU. They have a very nice team.

Wondering what the Nicole bashers and Sharane questioners will be doing tonight?

What they always do -

Joanna's offensive rebounds were huge!

One thing that seemed obvious from the start was that we handled the stress of the situation much better than UCLA did.

Where's Badger...I know she's a happy fan tonight!

Aaryn was huge from BTA, but it seemed every time UCLA had a chance to close the gap late, Joanna was pulling down another offensive board and turning it into free throws. Love the effort she plays with.

 

[tooney]

I kept thinking the missed free throws were gonna get us.....just glad the game wasn't too close.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Let's not forget Sharane. She had 19 huge points on very good shooting and a couple of steals.

Jo was the steady one that delivered the win at the end. But, it was Aaryn who kind of broke the UCLA spirit with those threes to open a lead. They began to stand around more, and their shots just didn't seem inspired for a while.
