Did anyone think Gonzaga should have been called for a foul at some point there?


I was wondering but I didn't see a replay, so I don't know. Gonzaga played really well.

FRIE-SON! FRIE-SON FRIE-SON!!! Surprised

I feel bad for A&M though, what a snake pit they got thrown into as a 2 seed.

Good job by Gonzaga at getting it done at the end! Vivian Frieson played a great game.

Congrats to the Zags on their first Sweet 16!

Sorry for my belated post, I spent the last ten minutes running around the house screaming my head off.

I was disappointed in Sloot, but Vivian is LEGIT.

So happy for the Lady Zags, but that game was too close. Sweet Sixteen baby!

just got home from the game. no one wanted to leave the arena. it was a madhouse, people screaming, hugging, high fiving. the girls just beside themselves with joy. otoh, the aggies were crushed. in fact, adams didn't even walk down the hand slap line. she stayed off to herself, bent over, visibly upset at missing that last shot. frieson and vandersloot went over and patted her on the back.

vivian frieson was el fuego these last two games. she is the senior glue that holds this team together with her calm demeanor, court presence and play at both ends of the court.

YOWZAH!!!! i'm so glad to have seen that in person. i don't know about anyone else, but i would venture to say that the two zags games have been the best games of the tourney so far. but then, i may be a wee bit biased. Wink

way to zags! now on to the sweet 16. YOWZAH!!!!

Dear Gawd, yes! I don't know how many times (on replay, no less) I counted that girl in the paint for 5+ seconds on offense. Some generally sucko reffing, but there's been worse, I spose

I like Gary Blair. I like A & M...I picked 'em, even. But I was really glad to the Zags win this one. Odd that Heather B. didn't contribute all that much this time. And as good as Vanderslootertooter is, I can't believe how many times she picked up her dribble needlessly in this game...WAAY too many turnovers. She's a remarkably talented player, otherwise.

And who woulda had Friesen on their Draft radar? Shocked

I don't know if Frieson is on any radar. Maybe she should be, but people always mention Bowman when they talk Gonzaga ... Confused

Congrats to the Zags!

They beat the best of the Big 12 (the conference tournament winner).

Vandersloot has been quite disappointing in Gonzaga's first two games. The 15 assists against NC are good, but her turnovers and shooting in these two games were hideous. And she nearly cost them the game last night by missing the front end of a 1&1 up 3 with 1:30 left, then fouling out seconds later.

A very entertaining game...especially the second half. V. Frierson was great from start to finish. Vandersloot seemed to be trying to do too much, maybe? She just seemed out of sync for most of the game.

Good luck Zags.

FINALLY! A competitive game between two very good teams...I have been watching the mens games because most of the womens have either been blowouts or boring but now, even though I am a Huskies fan I cant wait to see if the Zags can win their next game. They are really fun to watch..too bad it was on so late that most people probably missed it.

Best game of the tournament to this point. Great game of intensity and fight from both teams. The zags are no longer under the radar.

Nebraska loses one game to them and they are no longer the best of the Big 12, I mean really. I'm with you. I guess since Gonzaga beat A&M they could be the best of the Big 12 if they played in that conference. Rolling Eyes

Yes, it's completely possible. Gonzaga is a strong, quick team with a lot of offensive weapons. They have decent rebounding and they play with passion and heart.

In the one and done tournament format, A&M beat Nebraska -- that's what is clear.

Just like what the Zags just did to A&M. So big kudos to them for the accomplishment.

I believe Connie Yori when she says her team is not built to win the Big-12 tourney (and she said that beforehand). Nebraska went there with the goal of winning one game. They were still putting forth a good effort vs. A&M, but if you're not all-in it makes a difference.

But honestly I still thought A&M would beat Gonzaga because they have the people to totally take Vandersloot out of her game.

How can you not be built to win your conference tournament? Is she referring to having to win three games in three days?

If so, that doesn't speak very highly of her depth.
