A few thoughts on the game last night.

We have made a mockery of the SEC title race this year. It is over with almost a month left in the season. 2 game lead on UGA plus the tiebreak advantage. 3 game lead on USC, Mizzou, A&M and LSU, with the tiebreak advantage on 3 of those 4 teams.

We just wore that team out as each half went on last night. Outscored them 47-17 in the 2nd and 4th quarters. VV put the team on her shoulders in the 2nd with some help from Bibby. But in the 4th it was a little of everyone contributing.

Bench stepped up big time. Bibby is turning into a defensive stopper and Jazz would start for most teams in the country.

The double foul was pretty comical at first. I've never seen a player try so little to pretend not to intentionally foul. The ref made the right call initially, then Staley called helmet head over and basically just demanded that she even out the call. Other than that, I thought Staley toned her act down as much as I've ever seen though. It's sad because she's too good a coach to have to resort to that ********.

And the first player to come and hug Jazz after the game was Morgan William.

Vic is an amazing coach. Go listen to the post game presser. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PizyRIPKkys

This team learned how to perform under pressure last night. You can't put that all on one player. Vivians took that pressure for a quarter and delivered, she fought and led the team like only she can. Holmes was huge and so was Bibby guarding Wilson. And Schaefer hitting those 2 threes - historic, it broke SC. Knock out punches.

With a team like SC you have to fight them to win. That is a very good team.

We all know UConn is most likely on the horizon. It will take everything we saw last night plus some to beat them. They won't quit.
