Perhaps the best half of basketball all season. Strong defense and solid offense
Different team today. Pleased to see the ladies fighting hard. Great energy in the RAC this weekend.
Where has this team been? Finish strong and carry this forward, please!
Best game in a long time - both offensively and defensively. Shots are falling and keeping fouls under control (except for Wallace.) Much needed.
A superlative performance by the team and staff. The energy and focus has better than any other game this season. Great rebound and gut check
This is by far the BEST game our women have played all year. It stinks we don't have Zippy or Noga, but our ladies played with heart and played as a TEAM. If they played even 70% like this against MSU, we would have two more conference wins. Oh well. Let's use this feel good win to catapult this team the rest of the way.
Great game. "Just like the guys... Much needed win". Now I hope I can post after the Men's Game vs. UM....."just like the gals, way to beat UM! "
BTW, I just learned from reading the Noga thread that she will transfer. I find that very disheartening. I would really like to know what happened here. All I know, is our women always seem to miss a real three point threat on this team and I thought she was it, regardless of her overall shooting percentage.
I have a sneaky suspicion however, that lack of playing time might be the reason because she doesn't play defense up to the level that C Viv. expects. And if that's the case, then once again I find that troublesome for not putting an offensive threat on the court, when this team has always seemed to lack the ability to score especially from behind the three point stripe.

I'm beginning to like your posts :ThumbsUp
but even when you're over the top in negativity (in my opinion, you have shown to be a fan that cares [cheers]
When RU does well, you give praise :WooHoo:
It doesn't involve playing time. She was a complete no-show in many of the B1G games (i.e. wasn't even in the RAC). It was a case of " Where's Waldo" or "Finding Nemo" because no one knew where she was and there was no explanation from the team.
Team did not play the 55 defense due to lack of bodies & effort needed to play it, just played in your face hard defense in the half court. Pretty sure Zippy got hurt in the Maryland game taking a hard charge & she came up wincing & trying to stretch her neck, today she was wearing a neck collar, Joyia & Alexis still wearing a boot, so the bench is basically non existent. Least amount of points that Michigan has scored since 2007, & Michigan star center Hillmon was held to 5 points in 29 minutes
all the above is true, but to qualify, Hillmon was hurt in Northwestern game and did not play in 2nd half and did not practice for 2 days prior to today's game and took some awful looking shots. Nevertheless, team played great team defense and came up with a great win in front of a pretty good size crowd. Congratulations and lets keep it going.
For what it’s worth, the BTN broadcasters said Zippy was hurt in practice before Michigan St game.
