Ok we needed this in a way. No easy games. Glad they got it together. 

[Todd41 728]

When two teams are over 30 FT attempts, there is something wrong.

Tomorrow's game will be at 2:30 ET.

Player of the game: CMM -- no doubt about it (well, at least IMO). 

 

[Banksyrules 4,895]

maaaan I need to pace myself. These games are intense.

We beat Ohio State twice, doofus. 

I couldn’t catch the end of the game. Assuming they mentioned Ohio State presenting a big challenge to us?

No, they said we beat "Michigan twice and OSU once"

Idk how you could argue that. She was fantastic.

One of which has resulted in a technical foul on Mike Woodson

Have to think this win almost guarantees a 1 seed for IU.

Dang, Michigan going to get two free throws before the tip on Sunday now.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 85,602]

Most appropriate.

Post-game from Mack:  "Obviously, we're not proud of how we came out in that first half. I don't think any of us are. But the fact that we were able to kinda weather the storm a little bit and keep our foot on the pedal, keep chipping away at the hole we dug ourselves, was really special."

Teri Moren on Kiandra Browne: "She got hip checked, by TT Parks. She's had two hip surgeries... She's on her way to get X-rays off site. I can tell you this, she was in a whole lot of pain coming off... We'll know more later on tonight."

Teri Moren:  "I thought we slept walked in the first quarter."  "We needed to fix our minds...It was uncharacteristic of our team so that was the adjustment at halftime, to wake up."  "We learned a hard lesson there, and tomorrow our start will be, I anticipate, a whole lot better."

Guess it falls into the category of incidental contact, but the hip check the MSU girl delivered to Browne was a pretty physical play. Especially when you consider CMM's phantom foul on that MSU 3-pointer toward the end of the game.

CTM knows her team well and the right strings to pull. Great to see the Hoosiers bounce back after a bad start.

[Banksyrules 4,895]

good game between Michigan and Ohio State

[TheWatShot 14,254]

Not sure why Michigan's band is playing their fight song when they just gave up 5 points in 20 seconds after tying the game.
