A general problem I'm seeing with the Pac-12 teams is they don't seem to be able to handle the defenses they're seeing in the Tournament. Maybe we're not a good defensive conference.

ole miss won the game on defense, and those 3 forced turnovers (21 overall) was a fitting ending
Brink tried to keep them in the game with blocks, free throws (10-10) and rebounds (13) which is commendable considering she's been very sick (missed first game)
stanford showed they were vulnerable this season, and it's probably not been their best game. Will be interesting to see if Brink (junior) and/or Jones (has the extra covid year) return
but stanford has strong depth and great recruiting classes so they will remain on top of the Pac12 regardless
Utah also won (not surprised with their shooting), but overall the Pac12 hasn't performed that well
The Utah-Princeton game had a Pac12 ref. None other than Melissa Barlow. Ugh!. Sure enough, Constant whistles.HoopDreams said:true on the mens and womens side.stu said:

I think it goes back to the pac12 refs. The other conferences allow more contact, so when pac12 teams play them in the tournament where it's one and done, the pac teams aren't used to it offensively and defensively
I was shocked how good ole miss's defense was
I believe Jones has already said she will not be back for her COVID year. She'll enter the draft and probably go 2 or 3.HoopDreams said:

Oregon's next WNIT game is now against Washington, and it will be a home game for the Huskies in Seattle. So don't count out the Huskies. Daniels goes for 17 points in their most recent win against Kansas State.Schroeder71 said:
I'm beginning to think that the Pac 12 is not the best women's basketball conference anymore. Seven teams make the NCAA Tournament and none advance to the Elite Eight? Oregon might advance the farthest in the WNIT.

Utah just lost a close game to LSU by missing free throws in the last few seconds.
Johnson shot 2-9, 0-3 on threes, and 1-4 on free throws. Pili had 5 fouls and 6 turnovers.
Roberts would never be able to succeed at Cal -- what a terrible decision to stop practicing free throws right before the Sweet Sixteen....stu said:

Utah has the best looking offense in the Pac 12, largely because they have shooters at every position and runs a beautiful offensestu said:
I agree. When Utah has all cylinders firing they're awesome.
