      I hate it when the men and women play at the same time on the same day!

        It will be interesting to see how the ladies respond tonight to the WSU game. USD has historically been an in-yor-face kind of team much like WSU.

          The home crowd will help the Zagas. Stats say it's a toss up in favor of USD.

          An offense of dribbling and forced one on one or more play isn't going to get the job done. If the Zagas don't take care of the ball and keep it moving with good accurate passes and take good shots it's another tough loss at home.

          Time for a floor leader to step up. Needs to be team oriented. I thought this would be Taylor Karr's team but IMO she hasn't asserted herself as the floor general. Good team mate? Yes. Floor leader? Don't think so. Maybe I expect too much but senior leadership at GU has been huge and it's missing this year or at least so far.

          Hope the gals can pull this one out or even better find their offensive rhythm and put up 75-80pts for a W.

          Just my opinion.

          Go!! Lady Zagas!!! (like Lady Gaga)

            I love Jazzy's defense but imo Taelor should be the primary one to bring the ball up and distribute it.....I would like to see less slow down offense and more in your face, quick passing up the court.....I would like to see Keani in there a lot....I just don't know if three smaller guards in there at the same time is working....

            but....no matter what....WE GOTS TO WIN THIS GAME!
