Is anyone watching this game? I haven't been watching but just saw the box score on ESPN.
After three quarters, it's 31 to 28 and they are on pace for a total of 78.6 points. How is that possible? The over under for the game was 134.5. Texas scored just 6 points in the1st quarter. UCLA matched them with 6 in the 2nd quarter
And to think I thought that it was embarrassing that in the UCONN/South Carolina game that both teams both shot in the 30 percentage range (38 and 31). Texas is currently shotting 27% from the field. And it's not like they are shooting lots of threes. They are 1/8 of threes so that means they are 13/44 from 2 pt range which is 29.5%.
It is women’s basketball. Probably a couple dozen NCAA men’s track teams could beat these women’s teams in basketball.
Yeah, no doubt. Funny how Libs used to argue about top women's teams competing against top men's teams hypothetically until enough evidence circulated online to shut them up without taking responsibility.

Refs aren’t calling fouls this year in the final four, and these two teams can’t adjust to stop trying to play one on one.
Three passes gets a player open, the fourth pass gets a layup.
South Carolina will win the title by 25 points…
because they move the ball.
UCLA is #2 in D1 in both Assists per game and Assist/TO ratio. They know how to pass the ball. And unlike UConn, they have guards who can handle SC's press.
Bad officiating, is the answer. I haven't seen this bad of officiating since my daughter played elementary bball. Rice drove 3 times into the lane in the first half, in a normal officiated game she gets a layup, jumper or a foul. She was knocked down all 3 times, ball rolls away and nothing called (turnover). Texas plays with more grab hands then a drunk at the office party. I've never seen players getting their arms yanked while going around a pick and nothing called. I could go on. Refs never gave offensive players their space and ability to move. Feel bad for Texas Cunningham (center) though seems like refs singled her out for all the fouls. Probably played 4 minutes and had 4 fouls. wasn't doing anything different then her teammates. Texas D is terrible back to old G'town days of refs will not want to call all the fouls so keep grabbing as you will get away with more times then not. watch how the texas player guarding the picker holds them so they can't cut, roll, or move to create space. even in football holding is a penalty.
Facts. Heard a nice analogy recently. A little kid gives one a piece of art, it's crappy but it is framed and/or displayed proudly on the fridge. That's women's basketball. The real games are on right now.
