Stanford makes title tilt
- Thread starter colhenrylives
- Start date
I don't agree. I think people will be watching just as much if it wasn't two pac-12 teams in the finals. Maybe to see the two PAC-12 teams that made it. We haven't had a west coast football team in college foot make the playoffs in years and us football fans still watch it.
lets be honest... comparing college football to womens basketball is like comparing weather in november in vermont and Los Angeles. Nobody past the mississippi even knows Palo Alto is where stanford is regarding sports fans. That said... Adia is the only reason ima watch. she low key a baddie
Bro you underestimate sports fans. Stanford football had some powerhouse teams and Women's Basketball is always a factor. my family in the South and the Midwest know about Stanford. Women's basketball fans will watch the game tomorrow the same way they would have if another team from the South, east or Midwest was in the final. Maybe I'm wrong but Arizona makes this very intriguing. This is not the same AZ that Stanford beat twice. 💯
ion know bout powerhouse. they aint been in the bcs so there is that. i just think it would be more appealing if uconn and baylor were playing.
Stanford had some teams that if the Playoffs were here back then they would have made it to the playoffs. BCS was only one game. If you really know college football you wouldn't deny the Toby, Geirhart, Tyler, Gaffney, etc teams. They were for real
Say whatever you want about Stanford football, either way... This thread appears to be about women's college hoops. Stanford is truly legit in that game, and has been for years.
This year in particular, the Pac 12 has has several women's hoop teams in the Top 20 all year, with others close to it. No surprise that conference has done well in the tourney, but they've topped even the most lofty expectations.

how many rings they have? gotta have some jewelry to be a powerhouse
1-11
4-8
5-7
8-5
in Tobs 4 years. thats what we calling a powerhouse? or nah
Finishing in the Top 10 national rankings every year makes you a powerhouse. So maybe it wasnt Geiharts years but there were other years. It's not always just rings. Anyone that understands competitive sports in a true capacity should understand that. Stanford football was a top tier football program for a long stretch but let's get back to women's basketball
South Carolina Women have 1 ring. Considered a powerhouse. Stanford women haven't won since 92, considered a powerhouse, Louisville women, never won still considered a power house, NC State women's, never won it and considered a powerhouse. Oregon women, never won and we're a powerhouse program. You don't always base it off championships. Anyone who has played sports at a high level or understand competitive sports will tell you that.

That was a wild one! The Tree can celebrate!
Sure would like to know what the heck they were trying to do with that last possession, but they got away with it...

if you aint playing to win a ring u aint doing it right.
regarding womens basketball. terrible execution on that last play. TURRRRRRIBLE
I agree you gotta play to win a ring. But to base a powerhouse program on rings is not the proper assessment. You base Dynasties off rings not being a blue blood.
But yes they could have drawn that play up better.
stanford ran 4 people at her. seems they knew the move. Aari probably shoulda passed it.
This comment didn't age well. The Stanford vs AZ NCAA final is the 3rd highest watched Women's final since 2004
Super Pac: Stanford-Arizona top women's title game since '14
Despite pitting teams from the lowest-profile Power 5 conference, the finale of the Women's NCAA Tournament delivered in the ratings for ESPN.

you dont play d1 in the pac 12 if you are afraid of the moment. so yes, her teammates wanted the shot. but we all know aari was taking that shot no matter. i knew that, adia knew that, tara knew that and her trainer on this site knew that. you dance with who brought you there. she earned the right to shot or pass. big shot rob wasnt waiting on the wing.
If there had been just a little more time on the clock, Brink would have fouled her. She was reaching for her just before she shot it ... Brink is a fouling machine, and if Aari had had a little more time, she could have driven at Brink and drawn the foul.
