I was just going to say the same thing. Four games in eight days playing in Corvallis one day flying halfway across the country to Texas for a game and then flying back to play Oregon a couple days later is a lot to ask for any team. But still a fun game to watch.

This is true, but, they are the best team in the world. They would have beaten most, if not any other, college team regardless. I'm sure they have had tough schedules in the past and did. The Ducks are not an ordinary college team. They deserve #1 ranking. Minyon is a great addition. Lydia looked much better than last year. Last year she seemed to look lost when she came in. Sabrina and Satou as expected. This team can go all the way. Add Sedona and....? Of course, they now become the target.

This game will be looked at as the moment that Sue Bird handed the PG torch to Sabrina to carry for the next 20 years.

Guys, hasn't this been a wild ride since Ionescu joined the program? To a strong finish!

To be fair, Team USA is comprised of professional players who are used to more playing and lots of travel. For example, the New York Liberty team in June 2019 played 11 games over 30 days in six different cities from the East to West coasts.

This was also the first game for the Ducks. Coaches always talk about how the biggest improvement teams make is between the first and second game. Team USA had multiple games under their belt to work the kinks out. Obviously, this game meant a lot more to the Oregon women than it did to Team USA. I don't think anyone actually believes the Oregon women are the better team over the long haul, but there is no need to bend over backwards to make excuses. On this particular night, the Oregon women beat them fair and square.

They also have a roster full of the best women players in the business. If they had 7-8 players then maybe that would be a huge deal.

I'm surprised everyone is desperately trying to downplay this...
We beat a team with players on that roster that started in multiple gold medal winning games. They have also put away every other college team easily. Top to bottom that team was stacked. They have a deep bench and players that come in and out, plus pro athletes who travel frequently. Everyone's acting like we beat an ACC all star team. :
