PrintOur Lady Longhorn Gazelles play today at 4:30ET on ESPNU against UCLA for a spot in the final four. Last night they played a tight game against Kentucky. They won in 4 sets but each game was closely fought. Our ladies played Kentucky in Kentucky so they played against a hostile crowd. That same crowd will likely be pulling for the underdog UCLA team today. For those of us who watched it on ESPN3 we also had to endure announcers who were clearly pulling for the Kentucky Wildcats. There were also several line calls that may have benefited the home team. But in spite of all that, our Ladies move on to the Elite 8 as the top seed.
Hook'em Horns. On to a Final Four spot!!

it looks like
UCLA is a better matchup than Kentucky
Hard to believe this UCLA team is higher seeded than UK.
Last night UK played a much more solid game. But it is still early.

Odd comment:

Doesn’t it take two teams to rally?

If Texas loses, all they can do is blame themselves for all the unforced errors

service errors and net violations have given UCLA 4-5 points in the last couple of minutes.
ucla leads 14-12

I remember watching the first matchup against Oklahoma earlier in the season
and it was the exact same story and OU was just an average team.

I needed a little time after this loss.
I was expecting far more from this team but with all the talent on the floor for the Gazelles. What they lacked was passion. Fire.
Now I understand the “business like approach” but it doesn’t match passion when it comes to to the close games that often mark tournament season. I hope for more next year with some top players returning but what a sad, frustrating end to a very promising season.
I am proud that this team made it so far and their season was recognized with a number one seed. However, they finished too soon. So sad.
