USF Women vs Oklahoma

[DELdaBull]

What a game. After coming out sluggish they found their feet, then bludgeoned a good Oklahoma squad. 

These ladies might be good. We find out a lot more after Thanksgiving.

I am guessing that Ferreira’s 34 points were either a career high (or close to it)

She shot the lights out behind the arc and was the main reason for our big run to close out the 3rd qtr

Harvey looked great. We have a really good group of freshmen. If Kit comes back next year I believe this team will be able to take down UConn. I know that's beyond a bold claim but this is an extremely talented bunch.

We know this team is good. They have been for years under CJF...but are they good enough to be a premier program? If you haven't noticed yet, there's a huge difference between the top teams in women's basketball and everyone else (Ex: the 102-24 wins -- you usually don't see this in men's basketball except the #1 ranked team vs the #350 team). We are the rare in-between team. We are good enough to go 28-3 this season but still lose twice to UCONN and to another big name team in UCLA on the road (recent win over #16 Georgia). But how far does that 28-3 take us in the tournament when we finally match up against one of the power teams of women's basketball (ND, UCONN, Oregon, Baylor, Louisville, etc). We can have a fantastic season against the "have-nots" of women's basketball, but we need to turn the corner as a program and take advantage of any opportunity to play one of the powerhouses and finally get one of those "program defining" victories. We all know we can beat every other team in the conference minus UCONN...but it's time we break the losing streak and beat UCONN.

OU is a very young squad...4 Freshman, and 1 Sophomore started the game and played the most minutes.   How good they are is an unknown at this point.  Boomer, Sooner!

Unreal to see the response of our team to losing their leading scorer and still embarrassing OU. That win was fire. We could still reach the NCAAs with them bunch, theyre that good.

Coming into the game, Laura was averaging just 0.3 points a game less than Kit, but with better percentagewize.

Kit was      16/47 fg/fga  .340 ;  7/21 3fg/3fga .333;    10/14 ft/fta .714

Laura was 17/30 fg/fga .567;    5/13 3fg/3fga .385;     9/11 ft/fta .818

It really isn’t surprising, how Laura’s numbers shot up with Kit not on the floor.

Wow that's a rough start to the year for Kitija, I had no idea. Her FG%, and looks like she missed as many FTs through 3 games as she did all last year.
