MU Women's Advance To Big East Championship Game

[bradley center bat]

For the fan, faster pace. Fewer commercial breaks. Don't get into the bonus early and stay there for 12 minutes. I think 4 quarters gives a much better flow to the game. I would love to see the men go to it as well. However, not sure that will happen due to commercial considerations. That's where the money is made. Unless there's longer breaks or guaranteed commercial breaks with certain timeouts, money is too important for the men to make that shift.

We shall see in the NIT, as fouls will reset at the 10 minute mark.

They do breaks at 15/10/5. You get the half in both, but it's 2 fewer MTOs per game.

Still don't quite understand the 4q thing, as I assume you meant 1q5/Q/2q5.   They *could* do what you suggested, 15/10/5 with 2 halves.  Nothing magic about doing it every 4 mins like mens.

Quite a game - gong into 4th quarter. MU up 1

Does the women's team collapse at the end of games like the men?

Yes, was trying to figure out the best way to express it. Basically, men's does a break every 4 minutes, women's does a break every 5.

Gals are playing well. Well coached .That program has a future

Not last night. DePaul won't go away, so this little 7-0 run doesn't have me convinced it's over. A lot of this game has reminded me of the men, though. Hiedeman playing Howard (with Sandy's eyes), can't get a defensive rebound. Women play better defense, though.

Keiger's got the huddle game down.
