Texas Women’s Basketball 2023-2024: Handing out ass whoopins and lollipops, and we’re all out of lollipops

[Js1 87306]

KSU is just going to drive and get fouls called. But we can’t do the same 

0 KSU fouls in 5 min 

eye roll 

[Js1 87306]

This officiating has changed the game 

[MuellerHorn 4631]

That was a travel on the KSU three-point shot to take the lead. She hopped, then shot, after already establishing her pivot.

If it's not a layup, we're not making it. 

[MuellerHorn 4631]

Huge and-1 for Shaylee!

[Js1 87306]

SHAYLEEEEE

[MuellerHorn 4631]

This commentator is openly rooting for KSU.

Holle!

[Js1 87306]

SHAYYYYY

[MuellerHorn 4631]

Holle!

[Hondo 810]

#50 for KSU just barrels into the scrum for rebounds.  Those are fouls.

[Js1 87306]

Holle the closer! 

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

Vic is such a damn good coach. I expected us to still be a fringe top-25ish team without Harmon but not this good.

I hate how K-State plays. They try to match out physicality by just fouling and they still get away with more than they should. 

[Hondo 810]

Love seeing Holle geting in on the scoring action.  As unselfish a player as you'll see.

[MuellerHorn 4631]

That travel for KSU should do it. We'll see.

[kingkoopa6 8751]

Shay clutch.  

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

The Big 12 should just be thankful we had no Harmon or we probably wouldn't have lost a game all Big 12 play.

Holle!

In every sport, women's and men's, this has been the year for every announcing crew to not-so-subtly root for our opponent. More than usual, I mean. I'm sure it's been orchestrated by the emasculated commish.

This team could still get really far, but damn, this was as good of a year as ever with Rori playing.

[Js1 87306]

Come on Gaston, sometimes just let it go. Time and score 

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

Get the ball to Shaylee or Booker. 

[Hondo 810]

Uh...Booker travelled.  Got away with that one.

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

No 3s. Make them burn 5 or 6 seconds with a layup.

Make up call from the OU game 

[TrashMaster G 18137]

How many times has the commentator mentioned the 3-point win by KSU in Manhattan  without a mention of the more recent 7-point win by Texas in Austin?

Edited March 11 by TrashMaster G

[MuellerHorn 4631]

There have been two obvious travels (one for each team) not called in the last three minutes.

[dcar00 15003]

these officials are fucking awful.

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

How was that a foul? 

[Js1 87306]

That wasn’t a foul 

[someguy 1567]

that foul on Jones was an absolute joke.

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

Don't foul and this game is over. 

[TrashMaster G 18137]

Way to close it out, ladies.

[Js1 87306]

Jones Ft motion makes me nauseous but it worked 

Go take that Big 12 crown tomorrow! 

[jw4381 3252]

Never a doubt?

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

I hate how K-State plays. They beg for fouls all game inside for Lee while everyone else on their team fouls the fuck out of players.

If they actually called fouls on Lee, she’d be DQ by the 3rd Q

[Stringer 1496]

Lol, who was that kid wearing his dad’s suit at the end of the broadcast?

Yeah, I said this before the game. It's annoying playing this team because of Lee.

Don't have to worry about that any more.

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

The other thing annoying about Lee is I'm not sure I've ever seen a 3-second violation call on her. She just sits in the paint for 10 seconds. 

Thank god we are done playing her. 

[Js1 87306]

Aston’s UTSA squad moved into the AAC semifinals, defeating USF today. 1 seed Tulsa got knocked out today. UTSA is the 4 seed. 

Play 9th seeded ECU tomorrow 

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

We need Holle to be a bit more aggressive offensively like the end of the game. I know that's not her role but she can score and teams are over helping on Booker now. 

[perfectchaos007 6780]

In hindsight, it benefited us that Booker didn’t play as many minutes as expected today given we play again tomorrow and she’ll be asked to play near 40 mins again assuming no foul trouble

Yep. Booker only played 26 minutes. 11 for Jones

Poor Shaylee and Shay (40 each) and 35 for Moore. 26 for Gaston

Out of all the potential 1s, yes.  Want nothing to do with SC (obviously) or Iowa (their 3 point shooting scares me and Clark can go nuclear). Stanford always scares me with their length with Brink and their shooting with Jump and Tara is such a good coach.   And she works the refs when it comes to games with Texas - she hates Vic's physical style of play. 

I actually really want a Booker-JuJu matchup in the Elite 8.  That would be a rating bonanza. 

Now that the game posts are over- I think holle is the X factor against Iowa and Clark.  She can chase her all around and bother her.  I know zero about Iowa but if she has any struggle scoring and playmaking I bet they have a tough time winning.

The prime directive is to get it inside so the guards defer to the post players but Holle can fucking score.

[Rickylovesweed 15574]

Seems pretty clear what Vic's identity is now with this team. 

We are going really big with Booker (who is really a 4) and then two bigs. We aren't shooting many 3s and pounding the ball inside. Defensively we are physical and big but it's going to be interesting how Vic adjusts against a team with a bunch of quick guards.

I’d actually prefer USC because they do not have elite PG play. Texas’ defense would cause a lot of havoc. And tbh, Gottleib is a so-so X and O coach. Vic would scheme laps around her.

We're playing the Hawkeyes?

Well it’s an extension of which 1 seed’s regional we want to be in

ISU, it’s going to about containing their defensive tackle Crook and not giving up wide open threes because ISU can shoot it
