Their commentators said having ACC on the court was like having another coach on the floor with her 100+ games in the SEC with Bama. It’s true. She’s a presence inside and good pass, too.
But, sigh, A State has 30 points in one quarter and almost got more at the buzzer. They are winning the rebounding stat 14-3.

India Howard in now and has 3 rebounds already. I really question Tiber’s in-game personnel choices.

Wow. Lions close strong! Down by 5 at the half. Tiber finally realizing she has to play her size against a team like this for the guards to thrive.

Lions lose in OT and this is why I shouldn’t watch these things live. Lol. My biggest praise is that I feel they really grew as a team tonight. Howard and ACC need to start. We have a shot at a good conference season if they stay healthy and play a lineup that has fast guard play coupled with forwards to rebound and dish. Finished the night even in rebounds.

ACC cannot score. 1-9 for the game? Uggh…I was hoping she could help the team. Callins is playing her best ball ever and Charlton is really playing well. Cutter is all effort and plays hard. Then we struggle after those 3. We need one more player to help out really could use two more to win any games. Also how do you only 9 points in a quarter? That is almost impossible to do so consistently? I was hoping the shooter from Deshler would help from the perimeter….hasnt happened yet. Jones is also not playing much this year? Strange early season for sure.

Jeez, what a frustrating loss.
I wonder if ACC is putting some pressure on herself to play well, considering this is her final year AND for her hometown team. Maybe she can figure it out by the time conference play starts.
Callins and Clutter are carrying the team lately, and Charlton has really solidified herself as the PG. After that we aren't getting much of anything. God forbid one of those 3 gets hurt. Regardless, that's the 3rd or 4th road game that we've really had a good chance to win and can't finish it off. Players, coaches, whoever you want to blame, the fact is that nobody is really getting it done right now. This team is so up and down, example being giving up 30 points in a quarter. I know road games are tough... but you can't put yourself in a hole like that.
If it were up to me, I'd make sure this staff understands that they need to perform VERY WELL in conference play, or they're done.

Quote from one of the best coaches of all time, “You are what your record says you are’. 3-7 is what the current record is now. 3 wins was any of those a good win?

I didn’t realize that Cruce missed that many 3’s in the game but it was her presence inside along with India Howard that kept them in this game. Otherwise, it would have been a blowout like the first quarter was without them in the game. A State has size inside. Howard had 10 rebounds and Cruce had 5 along with 3 assists. She also got to the line and hit 3 free throws. Thank goodness Callins is playing well and Wohlgemuth is a hustler with her 5 rebounds and 7 assists. Clutter plays hard but is out of control a lot. Tweedie has had two good games in a row.

Men lead the whole way and give it away at the end. Pitiful. TTU closes the game on an 11-0 run in the last 4 mins.

I can MAYBE understand not fouling, but how do you come to your end of the floor and not call timeout to set up a final shot? Absolutely terrible clock management.
