I was a bit surprised that Carter started, more surprised that Derica his five in a row, but shocked when Gibbs came into the game. Now, we have to teach her quickly.

What happened to Sharane? Zero points and only played 8 minutes. Was she injured or ill?

Turned her ankle early.

Durrett did well the last few minutes. Maybe the extended time was all she needed to come alive. We need her muscle inside.

Turned her ankle early.

Not seriously, I hope!

I'm not so sure that Kellogg didn't move past Portia. Seven boards stands tall tonight.

She was barely limping. I think it was a combination of wanting to rest her and her ankle.

Just for fun...

osu beat UTA, 74-35, a couple of weeks ago. osu starters played 127 of the total 200 minutes.

OU beat UTA, 99-46, with starters playing 92 of the 200 minutes.

Derica to get more minutes?

 

[SoonerNorm]

It's pretty hard to make predictions on future playing time based on tonight's game. I do think every minute that freshmen can get in these early games will benefit them.

We get out rebounded 43-40 against a team like UTA? Man, that is just pathetic.

I don't know what the solution is except playing with more fire and being strong. Perhaps that's why we saw Gibbs tonight. Sherri may have decided she's going to need another body under the boards.

Guard play on this team is unbelievably good.

Before anyone gripes about the rebounding, let me point out that we led in offensive rebounds. They got 8 more defensive rebounds because we put up 31 more shots.

(Oops, too late! )

Coach had an interesting comment about KayKay's fouls. She says some of them come because she isn't moving properly on the pass BEFORE the pass into the post.

You make a good point when you look at team rebounding but when you consider Griffin only grabbed 2 defensive rebounds and Williams had 0, that's not good.
