I wonder how many times Griner has dunked.

[olldflame]

The final score of this game was 99-18.
Brittney Griner was 11-12 from the floor and scored 26 points in 23 minutes of PT. She had 2 dunks, joining Candace Parker as the only females to dunk twice in the same (college) game.

Some other WBB scores today:

UNC 101
Winston-Salem 38

Texas 114
AR Pine Bluff 53

OK State 84
TX Pan Am 31

UConn 91
Seton Hall 25
That's a CONFERENCE game.

There is a real problem with inequity in NCAA WBB. There is a finite number of really good players, and more and more of them are going to the same handful of teams every year (especially UConn).

I'd much rather watch a DI women's game than a D3 men's game.

about equal for me

womens hoops is a second rate sport. that's why the only professional women's league that can survive has to be subsidized by the nba.

Correction: first rate sport, second rate entertainment (that is, if you always measure it against men's basketball). If you instead consider it by itself, its very entertaining.

Also, the sport does indeed still lack parity - better than the early 90's and prior, but still a long way to go.

Depends on the team, but I'd much rather watch the LU women than the LC men, unless LC is playing Hampden-Sydney, then seeing the Hornets fans reaction getting a beatdown might be interesting.

Similar to how it's interesting watching the Flames fans reactions after getting beatdown by ODU, Coastal Carolina, UCF, and Buffalo?

Were they the redheaded step child of the family then since they went to that liberal bastardization of a college instead of LU then? lol

[LUnpretty11]

I know this isn't a blowout or anything like that.... But College of Charleston is about to beat UNC 82-79 with 1.1 in OT

[LUnpretty11]

CofC wins!!! Congrats to them!

[thepostman]

i was surprised to see unc go in there to play, props to them, not many big time programs do that kind of thing

[SuperJon]

Carolina's not that good this year. The #9 ranking is about 5-10 spots too high.


Roy and CofC's coach are pretty tight. It was one of those favors that coaches do for each other.

That is exactly right.

And, if you've never been in CofC's brand new Carolina First Arena: 5,100 capacity downtown arena, fans right on top of floor, incredibly loud with a flat metal roof.

[flamesbball84]

Roy Williams just pulled a Billy Gillispie.

You mean Bobby Cremins? Yeah, he's just a liiiiittle bit connected in college hoops.

[SuperJon]

I couldn't remember how to spell it and didn't feel like looking it up or getting it wrong, so I just typed CofC's coach.

They go back to when Cremins was at App and Roy was coaching high school in Asheville.

No, the fact that one of them got rejected by Longwood made him that. The others no one cared, just as long as you got a degree.
