Nobody's got it easy. UW and Stanford have only one of the other 3 - on the road. I'm not counting on uo to do us any favors. I'm not counting on us needing any.

Hope your right, but the team has been squeaking out wins the last two weeks. Not as dominant as early in P12 play. @home will help.

Hope your right, but the team has been squeaking out wins the last two weeks. Not as dominant as early in P12 play. @home will help. Both Arizona road games were wire-to-wire wins in which OSU never trailed. Beat (23) ASU by 9 and UA by 8. Did we crush them and coast home? No. But were they nail-biters? Not really. Minute distribution for the team in the Arizona swing is interesting: | Player | Minutes | Ave | | Syd* | 72 | 36 | | Marie* | 60 | 30 | | Gabby* | 59 | 29.5 | | Kolbie | 48 | 24 | | Bre* | 45 | 22.5 | | Mik* | 38 | 19 | | Katie Mc | 34 | 17 | | Kat | 26 | 13 | | Tay K | 11 | 5.5 | | Maddie | 7 | 3.5 |
Scott played a pretty deep rotation with 10+ minutes for 8 players and only Syd > 30 min. I think Scott is looking for every chance to get game time for his players knowing they will all be needed down the conference stretch run - and beyond. |

Not nail-biters? Then why am I in need of a manicure?

Color me nervous as well....
Teams are figuring out how to disrupt our offense a little better (hedge out on Sydn3y, disrupt how we open up our perimeter shooters, drop down on posts and exploit their tendency to bring the ball down, push out our posts a foot beyond their range, etc).
We also have some maddening tendencies around ball security and inbounding that are acute in close games (if we cut our TOs in half, we might be a 1 seed).
While we have a 1 game margin for error, I think our tie-breakers may come in handy, and UCLA is looking quite dangerous.
Go Beavs!

The number of turnovers and near-turnovers on inbound plays, especially in the most recent games, has been a glaring problem. |

After this weekends games I'm considering UCLA's two losses effectively takes them out of title contention at 9-5. | OSU 12-2 | UW 12-2 | Stanford 12-2 | | @ Colorado | @ UCLA | @cal | | @ Utah | @ USC | Cal | | Stanford | Colorado | @ OSU | | Cal | Utah | @uo

I just heard Ros Gold Onwude on the PAC-12 network say "none of the 3 tied teams have differentiated themselves from the other two" well Ros..... Only one of the 3 has beaten the other two. For whatever that may be worth. |
