@oregonduck20914 @dakizzler488117 @TransferPortal @PeteNakos Not even remotely true

@gocougs123 None of the guys Oregon burned are major contributors outside of Twist and Clarke. Clarke is a former starter who threw 12 pitches, so he’s available whenever, and Morgan and Uelmen aren’t the high leverage guys. Neither Bell nor Bradley, the Ducks’ closers, pitched today.

@BenResnic_ Does the model take into account individual away environments or is it just h/a/n?

[Gavin Carpenter @GK_Carpenter]

@TaliaGoodmanWBB Is .500 in B1G conference play good enough for an at-large this year?

Here's my Women's College Basketball Top 25 for this week. Not a lot of movement on the bottom row, but once again the top 2 rows get a shuffle. Iowa has been on an absolute roll and is one of my favorite teams to watch; they get a nice bump. Princeton finally makes it into my top 25, and Oklahoma jumps to 10th after their win over South Carolina. Let me know what you think!

For anyone who’s watched Oregon WBB this year, this Vanderbilt gameplan against Michigan is what the final form looks like.

Here's my Women's College Basketball Top 25 for this week. 4-10 get a shuffle and three new teams join the Top 25. LSU gets a jump for it's two big wins last week, and Iowa is slowly creeping up as one of the best all-around teams. Michigan St and Georgia impressed me last week, and Iowa St will fall clean out of the rankings until they can figure some things out. If you're wondering where Princeton is, they're sitting at #26 for me right now. Let me know what you think!

Katie Fiso scored 26 points in this game and was the 3rd highest scoring player. Mia Jacobs had 30 and Destiny Howell had 39.

[Gavin Carpenter @GK_Carpenter]

DESTINY HOWELL IN THE CLUTCH

WISCONSIN WINS IT 94-92 IN 2OT!!

[Gavin Carpenter @GK_Carpenter]

YOU’VE GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!

DESTINY HOWELL!

WISCONSIN’S GOING TO DOUBLE OVERTIME!!

[Gavin Carpenter @GK_Carpenter]

Uhh, Kentucky? You alright over there?

#7 Wildcats down 12 to Mississippi State with just over 4 minutes to go. Could be our 3rd upset by more than 10pts today.

[Gavin Carpenter @GK_Carpenter]

Y’know Oklahoma, taking your star and the most important player in your offensive scheme out for extended minutes due to foul trouble only works if you can keep up without her.

[Gavin Carpenter @GK_Carpenter]

For anyone wondering why Texas’s offense is so hard to deal with…
