Thank you, rmancarl. Even though it's focused on USC/UCLA, this is still a good short read. The group chat initiated by Tara VanDerveer is very interesting.

from Cori Close, pretty good quote: "I just thought, you know, it used to be Stanford and the 11 dwarfs"

First quarter of Stanford-NC State was awful, but it's picked up since then. This is a bit different, Iriafen has been on the bench almost the whole game in foul trouble instead of Brink. Kiki was really good while she was on the floor. Brink picking up the slack. Just about a double double early in Q3 and had 5 blocks in the first half. Jump is hitting shots too.

Lower bowl mostly full by the 3rd qtr. Not so much in 300 level... basically 12 sections pretty empty. And that doesn't count 10-12 sections on both ends "clouded" off. NC St 16-6 so far in 3rd... 43 all. Brink to bench with her 3rd, 4:16 left 3rd

Stanford had been in control most of the game, but NC State just tied it. Now Brink and Iriafen both have 3 fouls. They have almost no time playing together in this game.

1:14 3rd... Brink with her 4th
NCSt 51-47
Stanford continues to play 4 on 5 on their offensive end with LaPoalo(?) providing no threat and can't keep NCSt guards in front. Jamess with 22 after 3rd
28 point 3rd for Wolfack... 55-47

Brink just picked up a dumb 4th foul.
I haven't watched a ton of Stanford, but I'm almost always underwhelmed by Lepolo. She just doesn't do much, and not very good defensively.

Stanford has been plagued by TOs during the NC State comeback.

Wolfpack by 8 at the end of 3. 28-10 in Q3. NC State guards are dynamic, can drive or shoot from deep. Stanford guards...not so much.

NCSt has a solid roster. Inside 3-4 bigs, one very good. And, 3 guard/wings that can handle, defend, shoot it. And, solid role players.

Brink fouls a lot, pac 12 refs took it easy on her and she was still called for a lot of fouls. At least that is what it seems to me
