Ohio State Women's Basketball (2023-24 B1G CHAMPS)

Two straight misses at the rim. Aaargh.

Credit to UCLA for coming out with a strong game plan and playing very well against the press, which was the biggest difference. Credit to the Bucks for playing them even on the boards and making good halftime adjustments. Not enough to beat them, but they competed well.

UCLA starts 5 seniors, and the 6’7” Betts makes a big difference at both ends.

B1G bracket lady had the Buckeyes as a #3 seed, hopefully that holds true.

Gotta play them one at a time anyway. The UCLA v Iowa actually shows that the Buckeyes had more stuff, only losing by ten. Hoping we see that kind of effort in the Dance, and will let the results play out......Go Bucks!

Absolutely. Wouldn't hurt if we get an even zebra crew to go with itl

Count me as one who believes that if a zebra decides the game, it is our fault.....shouldn't be in their hands for a win/loss. Every game is played with what the zebras allow. No contact, play through it, ticky-tack, or body blows. Each crew decides the tempo. Had many a game where had three fouls before halftime. But also believe if you end a game with one foul, you didn't play hard enough.

Meh, that's true if it's the same on both ends!

 

[calibuck]

Earned myself a technical or two by telling the zebras to call them the same on each side of the ten second line. For some strange reason, they were offended. Oh well, such is life.

If the bracketology holds up, I like the ladies draw. Duke and Texas are beatable if we play hard and smart so it could be a Final Four run in that regard. Would be UCONN in the Final Four and let's face it, they aren't getting beat so that would be an amazing year for this team if they could get that done. One at a time and get that confidence going, you never know.

If our gals are hitting their 3's, and Elsa can clean the boards, and Jaloni does Jaloni things, the run might be a deep one. PS, maybe our 0-2 record against UCLA will dissolve if/when we tee it up with them again. Too many tall, talented teams in the Dance, and more than several emanating from the B10. Which is good, in that tOSU has faced them already. Get your dancing shoes on....
