How Will We Ever Beat Bcs Schools On The Road When The Foul Disparity Is Crazy....

Its Impossible If We Get Treated Like That... I Hate Refs... Its B.s.

we lose big... it just seemed like the defense wasn't there today... from listening to mike which by the way does an awesome job :) the ladies seemed tired... disappointing... maybe this tough schedule is starting the wear on them... we now have a big game at Georgia in 10 days... hopefully they get alot of rest...

It was a challenging schedule when it first came out, then Amber went down and it became a tall mountain to climb. In the end, all these players will benefit from having gone through these games, even though there are some losses, they will better be able to endure as a season grinds on.

And yes, Mike does a fantastic job with the web cast. It's very rare for a one man show to go that well, he's a heck of an announcer!

Wow, high drama in the desert. Disappointing loss to say the least especially on the heels of the men's washout yesterday.

Remember ASU did all that without Dymond Simon who was the second leading scorer. Sounded as if some of the fouls were a little touchy, but you can't blame the refereeing solely.

There seemed to be some breakdown in the half court defense. A lot of shooters left uncontested. Granted it was two games in three days, but the team had to bus to North Carolina and still gave a better effort.

Gut check time. I think we all know the team is better than it showed today. This can be a positive, but the ladies have to motivate themselves to be better.

I hope everyone enjoys Christmas, I plan to listen in to the Ga game. Thanks to Mike for bringing it to us!
