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

[TexEx15 17956]

The Zags flop more than I’ve ever seen in a womens game.

[Rickylovesweed 15563]

What a coaching job by Vic.

Without the best 2 way guard in the country (Harmon) and without another starter (Jones). Still a dominating Sweet 16 win.

Weirdly, I think this is a game where not having Booker might have helped us. 

She's been off offensively and we've been adding more athleticism on the defensive end when she's off the court. 

Nice to see this team play well without much of a contribution from Booker.

Probably the most impressive part

All around impressive win. Defense was outstanding 

[D3zii 3950]

Hopefully this builds some confidence for Vic I think the bench held their own also. 

[Rickylovesweed 15563]

Gonzaga is too 1 dimensional against a defensive coach like Vic. 

Only being able to score 1 way is not going to beat a defense like his.

She's been bringing the ball up the court most of the night

Yes .. and tonight, she should continue even when Booker is on the floor.

[Hondo 759]

I like how Holle always seems to contribute in the exact way they need her too.  Lock down defense every game, and works off the ball to allow the scorers to score.  But when they need her to score points, she'll drop 10-15 with some 3pt shots.  Very good shooter, but doesn't try to take over unless they need it.  Just plays the needed role.

[Js1 87224]

Sometimes Jak looks like she’s never touched a basketball before lol 

[ATXbronco 4515]

She get her nose busted?

[Js1 87224]

Oof hope she’s okay. No need to add injury to insult in their last game of the season 

[VirginiaLonghorn 4914]

There’s no crying in basketball …

[HenryJames 67443]

That Gonzaga assistant might be a lesbian.

[ATXbronco 4515]

The crying out came a second or two after our defender was close to her

[Hondo 759]

Sounded like she was shrieking pretty loudly unless that was a fan the mic picked up.  Thinking a blown out knee.

[ATXbronco 4515]

Ahh, bummer

I think it was her. It was immediate

NCST fans have nearly 2x the distance to travel compared to UT fans to attend the Elite 8 in Portland. Also, the mens NCST team is still alive in the NCAA tournament. Texas should have the fan advantage on Sunday.

The bench was great tonight. 

[ATXbronco 4515]

Left ankle or something

[orangeut 216]

didn't touch her..blw out her knee

[HenryJames 67443]

Is there a 25 point shot in women’s basketball?

[LonghornSean 4105]

I rewound, it looked like left ankle buckled when she landed

You mean the Megan Rapinoe doppelgänger 

[Js1 87224]

Texas blow out the Zags 69-47

Elite 8 Sunday versus NCST

[ATXbronco 4515]

Hook 'em, Lady Horns!  See you on SUNDAY!

[Rickylovesweed 15563]

That was an ass kicking and it was with a bad Booker and no Jones. 

 

[ATXbronco 4515]

2PM game Sunday

[Js1 87224]

2pm Sunday on ABC

Thank God

Interesting that Moore says they practice without Booker to know what to do without her 

[Js1 87224]

Also Director’s Cup point advantage Texas with Stanford falling in the S16

[ATXbronco 4515]

Zorro just snatched that ball outta the air from her

Done that. Result was avulsion fracture.

What does Directors Cup point advantage mean?

[Js1 87224]

Gonzaga going 0-2 today balances out NCST going 2-0

Just now, ATXbronco said:

We will get more points for WBB because we are advancing further than Stanford. 

[Rickylovesweed 15563]

We should be well rested on Sunday. 

Jones didn't play (assuming she's back from a concussion), Booker only played 25 minutes, and Gaston only played 18 minutes.

I missed the game (and the lead up). What happened to Jones?

Edited March 30 by UTexasFight
Nm. I see your post above. Damn. I was afraid it was carryover from the knock on the hardwood. I was at the game last week and saw it right away and was surprised she came back in the game

[Js1 87224]

3 Elite 8 appearances in 4 years 

The standard is back

Time to win one, but dawn is a big obstacle

[Rickylovesweed 15563]

I believe South Carolina is losing Cardoso and Papao next year. Clark is gone from Iowa. 

We should be national title favorites next year if everyone runs it back. 

[TommysTinyTowels 827]

So glad Faye came back into the fold, we really needed her today with Jones out.

Hadi: 8 points in 14 minutes.

[TommysTinyTowels 827]

Gonzaga vs Utah: They shot 48% for the game 54.5% from three.
Gonzaga vs Texas: They shot 26.5% for the game 18.2% from three.

Welcome to Victor Ernest Schaefer hell lady bulldogs.

[Rickylovesweed 15563]

We are on a pretty crazy run since the Big 12 tournament. 

Beat K-State by 7 (4 seed)

Beat Iowa State by 17 (7 seed)

Beat Drexel by 40 (16 seed)

Beat Alabama by 10 (8 seed)

Beat Gonzaga by 22 (4 seed)

We are running some good teams off the court.

I think I'd rather play Utah.  Zags can shoot and that's about the only way we can get beat.

ehehehehe

Moral of the story: Texas needs to run the Zags off the three point line, dominate the boards, HIT THEIR FUCKING LAYUPS and keep Gonzaga under 60-65 points and we are likely still dancing into Sunday. 

4-22 from three

39-26 rebounding margin 

50% FG without team’s leading FG% post

47 points 

[Gut Wagon 8219]

Poor Zags didn't see what Texas' D did to them, even after it was all over. Something tells me they wouldn't enjoy playing in the B12.

A lot more gracious than the post game PC by Gonzaga. Basically no credit to Texas. Totally different than Bama’s postgame PC

I didn't pull out the quotes in which Ejim and one of the Truong sisters basically said it wasn't our D...they just failed to run their sets. Pretty delusional take.

Because of the smothering Texas' D. Someone tell the Zags this isn't rocket science.
