I meant to say THE chip. 🤣

For sure they will be the favorite and are good from 3s but I don't think they've been battle tested much this year. Even with a similar roster to last year, recency and feeling the heat matters. Every team has at least 1 bad night in the tournament. I wish we could play them in the Final 4 to catch them before some tough games but even if we do play them in the finals, Our physicality and ball pressure will catch them off guard for a half. Azzi and Ziebell are an incredible 3 pt shooters but I trust Jordan and Rory to chase and challenge them all game. Plus we hedge/show every time off picks so they won't get a lot of wide open looks. The only real bad matchup is Strong. She will get hers and more but the key to beating UConn is shutting down Azzi and everyone else which is possible with our team. UConn being undefeated adds an additional element of pressure on them as well. Of course we'll still have to beat Kentucky and UCLA again, but things just seem aligned to give us a real chance this year with having home crowds until the Final Four and I'll take us against anyone on a neutral court.

Looks like @Rod Babers and @Marcus Myers need to stick to football 😉 🤘

Three Longhorns are listed as OUT for this weekend on the SEC availability report: — Jonah Williams — Michael Winter — Presley Courville

think the wins have started giving miller more attention from players @Gerry Hamilton?

Rod/Marcus, come one guys. Ya'll are dragging the group down LOL.

OTF Staff results after day one:

45 minutes to lock your women's bracket in!

Hopefully it serves as a wake up call akin to you have to bring it every game, can't take any days off.

Is USC a threat this year or it's pretty much Texas vs. Stanford barring some unforeseen situation. Last year I believe USC ended up 2nd?

Syracuse likely to poach former Orange star Gerry McNamara soon. McNamara is currently the head coach at Sienna, who came up just shy of a massive upset victory over Duke on Thursday.

@Gerry Hamilton Any thoughts on North Carolina after their collapse last night?

My upset pick yesterday was the High Point over Wisconsin. Shout out to ESPN's Matt Schick for that one. I listen to Dusty and Danny every morning on Sirius and they had Matt on last week and he said watch out for High Point so I chose them based on that and it paid off.

They made the billikins look like an nba team

That was my upset pick of the day. Today’s is 12 Akron over 5 Texas Tech. Hoping to have the same luck.

We currently have a 3 way tie for 1st place. I’ll give yall the OTF crew update on C&F this morning…. Let’s just say I can’t wait.

I also missed the UNC game. Sleepy eyes got me again. Back to the coffee pot.

This is why I'll never fill out a bracket 😂 I don't care if UNC is the number 1 overall seed, I would still pick them to lose round one.

Only missed two… high point and A&M. Not too shabby.

My Aggie hate got me as well. Only miss on day 1.

If UConn shoots the three well in the key games, they are the favorite. 39.5% from three with over 9 makes against is very high end in the womens game. Someone has to catch them on their bad shooting night, if they have one. IMO

Yeah, I am still bitter that we were robbed of getting the dream 5A matchup in 2001 of the seeing Willowridge with the #1 in-state senior TJ Ford & the #2 in-state senior Daniel Ewing vs The Colony with the #1 in-state junior Bracey Wright & #2 in-state junior Deron Williams. 2002 was a special year as all of those top teams and players played each other that year. Bryan Hopkins was absolutely special before some foot/ankle injuries and from my understanding almost ended up at Texas if it wasn't for SMU swooping in and also offering his twin brother a scholarship when his twin wasn't even good enough to see the floor at Dallas Lincoln HS much less on a college basketball team. Hopkins was largely viewed as a better player(not prospect) than Bosh in high school.
