WBB: General All-NCAA Thread - Not Team Cyclones Stuff

Good game on at 1:00 for us. Texas at WVU will be a good look at WVU and their pressuring defense. How will Texas handle that without Harmon? Good preview for us and next weeks game in Hilton. Gonzales and Booker each had a boat load of turnovers in the two games since Harmon got hurt. Saw a comment on another board that might also pertain to us next week, something along the lines that if Texas could break the press they would have a pretty big size advantage.

WVU is favored by 6.5 over Texas
KSU -20.5 vs UFC
Baylor -32.5 vs Houston
Sooner -17.5 vs Cincinnati

No odds for our game that I could find.
 
Texas up 23-16 in 1st. Turned it over 7 times in the quarter but still scored 23 points. WVU offense looks too raw to score much on Texas. They shot 6-21 in the quarter.

I cannot get espn+ to bring up this game. Always gives me an error message. Anyone else having this issue? I can connect to other games on espn+.

Texas up 54-32.
  • WVU 4-29 from three which is about the only shot they can get off versus Texas.
  • Texas has turned it over 18 times but shooting 53% when they don't.
  • Texas has only shot four times from beyond the arch.
  • Texas with a million rebounds.
  • Booker is a player.
 
Kansas lost to TTU 64-73. I expected KU to win this. They are underperforming with their experience and picked to finish in upper half of conference.

FORT WORTH – TCU's Sedona Prince suffered a hand injury, the team announced on Saturday.

The injury occurred during the 23rd-ranked Horned Frogs' game at No. 6 Baylor on Wednesday.

Prince is expected to return to the court before the end of the season.

Prince is averaging 21.2 points and 10.6 rebounds per game this season and is tied for second nationally in double-doubles (10). She is the only player in the country averaging at least 20 points, 10 rebounds and three blocks per game this season. Prince has twice been honored as Big 12 Player of the Week.

Prince was the centerpiece of a historic start to the 2023-24 campaign. The 6-7 center helped TCU (14-1, 1-1 Big 12) run the table in nonconference play for the first time ever and achieve its earliest AP Top 25 ranking in 13 seasons. The Horned Frogs' 14 straight wins to begin the year was the longest winning streak to start a season in the history of TCU men's and women's basketball.

TCU faces Oklahoma State (8-5, 1-1 Big 12) at 4 p.m. on Saturday in Schollmaier Arena.

I thought they were only goping six or seven deep with Prince. Will be interesting to see what happens? They come to Ames 1/20 and play Texas and KSU before that. They also play Houston before us but don’t expect them to have a problem with them.

It's still early, but they're down 14 at home to Oklahoma State right now, who are absolutely dominating the offensive glass (24-4 paint points). I think it's fair to say they'll miss her...

When new polls come out there will only be three ranked Big 12 teams. Obviously TCU and WVU will drop out. No one else was even in the "receiving votes". Wonder if we might get a couple votes now? Couple road wins in conference, even if not against good teams, should give us some sort of bump.
