Games of Interest - November 15

[BeKnighted]

Pretty good night for the B1G, except for one team that looks pretty bad.

[Edited to update the Washington State score and add the Texas score, which I inexplicably missed.]

Washington State came back and won 74-70. Not thinking that means anything except that San Francisco isn't very good or was outmatched..

I see that the head coach of San Francisco the last couple of years is Molly Goodenbour who played at Stanford, they were 18-13 last year. She replaced Jennifer Azzi, another Stanford grad, who resigned in 2016 as her wife was pregnant and she wanted to concentrate on family. After a very rocky start, the last couple of years of her 6 year coaching career were quite successful. Interesting stuff, which I didn't know.
