I was really surprised that Stanford beat OSU. I thought that if Slocum outplayed Williams, which she did, that OSU was better at most every other position. This is why I dont bet on sports.
Really looking forward to these 2 games. The second game will be a coaches chess match with a couple of days to make matchup adjustments from the first game.
The big thing for Oregon is hitting their 3's and if they aren't falling don't try to shoot your way out of it, go to plan B. It seems like the worse they are shooting 3s as a team the more they launch.
Sabally putting up a season high against the Bears with almost all of it coming in the paint and Boley finding her 3 point shot were both encouraging signs going into this.

Was kinda surprised that Oregon was able to get such a big lead in the 2nd half. OSU tried to make a run but Oregon was just too far ahead and made some clutch plays. I've noticed that ever since the ASU game, the Ducks have been playing some of the best defense I've seen since Graves has been the HC.
Now will come the real test for the Oregon women. It isn't really about proving they are better than the Beavers. Anyone that has a clue knows the Ducks are a better team than the Beavers.....the only thing that could change that is injuries. However, the Ducks are also a vastly superior team to Arizona State and gave that game away with a similar lapse of mental focus and complacency while having a double digit lead in the 4th quarter.
The Beavers will be absolutely desperate to win this next game. While the Ducks will want to win, particularly since Graves and the players have never won at Gill, the Beavers will feel like they have to win. My money would still be on the Ducks, but a loss wouldn't come as some huge shock.
Apparently the day started off with the beaver parent complaining about her seats, calling this #hashtag #notclassy
I would think visiting teams wouldn't have the best seats, but I could be wrong.
