The girls deserved so much better than what they've receieved today. Good thing this gives us a few more days to prepare our revenge in the big one.

Can't extend the arm there. That was the correct call unfortunately.

Super proud of these ladies today. They showed they can beat this type of team. Huge confidence builder even in a loss. Took Texas shooting out of their ass from three to win this one.

If you are going to foul here, at least make it physical. A little extra contact fouling Harmon here wouldn't make me sad.

Then why no calls on Texas for extending the arm all 2nd half? (I assume it happened in the 1st, too, but I wasn't able to watch)

We can blame the refs all we want, but Lordy there was some disfunctional decision making in the second half and overtime.
Exactly. we can whine all we want, but i have seen at least 5 lay ups that have been air balled. then we had a complete meltdown in the 3rd quarter on the press. that is like a 10-20 point swing. all on us. I also think the way we play makes it feels like we always get fouled

this game probably swaps us with Texas in seeding. we will slide to 3 and they go to a two.

Didn't say anything about the crap Texas has gotten away with. Just that that was the correct call. Too bad the officials didn't apply it across the board.

Oh for sure. This game was lost by us not the officials. We had our chances plenty of times in regulation. It took a heroic effort from Harmon too to pull this out for Texas. As I said going into the game, yes I wanted the win BUT more importantly, just show they can compete with this type of team. Mission accomplished from that standpoint. Onto the much more important tournament.

Officiating aside, we had some chances late. Good to play well against a physical team before the tournament. These ladies are so mentally tough and tonight only helped.
