导出博客文章SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- The tenaciousness of top-ranked Notre Dames defense, the
speed of its offense and a crowd of 8,106 overwhelmed No. 17 Washington early in
the Preseason WNIT final on Sunday and the Huskies never recovered.The Fighting
Irish jumped to a 12-0 start and led 25-8 at the end of the first quarter en
route to a 71-60 victory on Sunday as Arike Ogunbowale led Notre Dame with 17
points and Kathryn Westbeld added 14 points and eight rebounds. Ogunbowale and
Marina Mabrey had four steals each as Notre Dame forced 17 turnovers, leading to
19 points.Transition is our game. We want to get out and run, Notre Dame coach
Muffet McGraw said. I think thats one of the things were known for.Washington
coach Mike Neighbors said the male players who the Huskies normally practice
against werent available the past few days so it made it tougher to prepare for
Notre Dames speed.Wow are they fast, he said.After trailing by as many as 20
points early in the second quarter and 19 late in the third quarter, the Huskies
(3-1) closed to 63-53 on a basket by Chantel Osahor with 5:53 left. But
Ogunbowale hit a basket inside and Turner hit a free throw and scored on a
rebound as the Irish regained control.Turner added 10 points and 12 rebounds for
the Irish (4-0).Kelsey Plum, who entered the game averaging 30 points, finished
with 22 points on 7 of 19 shooting, including 2 of 6 from 3-point range. Plum
credited Notre Dames defense.They sat on my left hand the entire game. They made
me take a step back, fadeaway jump shots, and I didnt knock as many down as I
should have, she said.The Huskies entered the game shooting 48.2 percent from
3-point range, but only shot 32 percent on Sunday.Washington, which hadnt
trailed by more than seven points in its first three games, missed their first
five shots and had four turnovers while the Irish hit 5 of 8 shots.I think once
we got punched in the mouth we just settled down, and said, `Thats OK. Thats why
theyre No. 1 in the country. Lets start playing basketball now. So I think that
initial punch, it was cool to see our team battle throughout and play them even,
Plum said. I think that will help us in the tournament and future big games. I
think well be a little bit more prepared from the jump.BIG PICTUREWashington:
The Huskies, playing on the road for the first time, struggled shooting early
and couldnt hit consistently from 3-point range as they usually do. ... They
fell 0-7 all-time against teams ranked No. 1.Notre Dame: After struggling both
offensively and defensively in a four-point win against Green Bay, the Irish
played much better at both and in extending their home winning streak to 34
games.POLL IMPLICATIONSWashington: The Huskies outscored the Irish 52-46 after a
slow start so the loss shouldnt hurt them in the poll and could help them.Notre
Dame: The win over a ranked team might be enough to keep hold of the top
ranking, although the Irish could be hurt by the way they struggled to a
four-point win over Green Bay on Thursday.HE SAID IT:Were not used to playing in
front of 8,100 people. So that had a lot to do with it, Neighbors said.UP
NEXTWashington: The Huskies host Idaho on Tuesday and Seattle on Saturday before
playing at Portland on Sunday.Notre Dame: The Irish play Louisiana-Lafayette in
Houston on Tuesday, a neutral-site home game for the Irish so Turner can play
near her home in Pearland, before returning home to face TCU at home on
Saturday.

night should have been shot in black and white. It should have been captured on
spools of film, developed in a darkroom and then shipped to Tuscaloosa and Baton
Rouge theaters to be shown between Steamboat Willie and newsreel updates from
Normandy.Your final score: Crimson Tide 10, Tigers 0. No, that wasnt the score
at the end of the first quarter or even the half. It was indeed the final
score.People are always saying they want old-school football, LSUs Ed Orgeron
said as he looked over a one-sheet box score that had just been handed to him,
mere moments after being handed his first loss in four games as interim coach.
That was as old-school a game as I can remember in a while. Im sure some will
say it was ugly, but thats probably because it was just different than what
theyre used to these days.Just take a look at the very day this game was played.
This was one of only two contests between members of the College Football
Playoff committees Top 25, and they combined for 10 points. Of the 20 members of
that poll who were in action on Saturday, 10 scored 40 or more points, six
topped 50 and three exceeded 60. Another, 17th-ranked Baylor, scored only 22 but
surrendered 62 to unranked TCU.This is a season of spread offenses and 500-yard
passers and 200-yard rushers and basketball-ish final scores of 66-59. It has
been a video-game season. But while others have been playing on PS4s, the Tide
and Tigers werent even using an Atari 2600. They were playing bumper pool.Nick
Saban started his postgame news conference by saying, Talk about winning ugly.
By the time he had wrapped up his remarks 10 minutes later, on the TV behind him
Washington and Cal were already at 28-20 with 505 yards of offense ... with 6:02
remaining in the second quarter. By halftime in Death Valley, the Tide and
Tigers had combined for zero points and 220 yards of offense.How ugly was it?
Even the descriptions were ugly.This was a game thats going to test your nuts,
Alabama linebacker Ryan Anderson said after logging six tackles and a sack. You
know what I mean, it was old school.Old school, like the 102,321 fans in
attendance should have been asked to check their smartphones at the door and
told they could call home via a bank of pay phones in the concourse. Dont worry,
Sarah the operator will patch you through.The contest started with an Alabama
drive that ended with an interception and an ensuing LSU drive that was thwarted
via a sack and a blocked field goal. It had a failed fourth-and-1, a pair of
missed field goals, a pair of interceptions, 13 punts and a yards-per-play
average of just a Band-Aids thickness over 3.5.During one particularly unseemly
stretch, an LSU run out of bounds turned into a shoving match that turned
totally WWE, complete with a bent folding chaair, trampled by fleeing reserve
LSU linemen.ddddddddddddVeteran SEC referee Matt Austin even threw in some
theatrics, rattling off the four offsetting unsportsmanlike conduct penalties
with a pace and a pecking order that sent the crowd into a frenzy. Minutes
later, on the opposite sideline, LSU was slapped with a flag for a late hit that
was borderline at best, but the real hit was when quarterback Jalen Hurts was
clotheslined by teammate O.J. Howard as the tight end was trying to catch him
before he fell ... but only after a member of the SEC chain crew was flattened
in the process.This game has been so rough that its spilled over into the rest
of us, too, a longtime Tiger Stadium security guard said as he was helped from
the ground after being run over by a pair of LSU tacklers trying to chase down
Hurts.That task was one that became more and more difficult as the night wore
on.It felt like one of those games where if the field ever started to tip just a
little bit, just a little opening, then that might be the difference, Orgeron
recalled.He was right. After three quarters of zeroes on the scoreboard and
three quarters of each team being forced to start drives deep in their own
territory, Alabamas possessions began to slowly shift from starting at the 14 or
the 12 or the 9 to, in the third quarter, the 40, 46 and 42.Finally, Orgeron
confessed, we just gave the kid too much to work with.The kid was Hurts. And
when this medieval rack of a night had finally been clicked one round too far,
it was Hurts who broke free. The most old-school contest of 2016 was won by the
youngest player on the field. Less than two minutes into the fourth quarter, he
impossibly wove his way through LSUs tackling machine defense for a 21-yard
touchdown run.Only one player managed to put a three-digit number beside his
name in the final box score, and Hurts did it twice, with 114 yards rushing and
107 passing. A game played in a nearly 92-year-old stadium between a pair of
teams meeting for the 81st time, who were turning the clock back on modern
football at least 40 years, was decided by an 18-year-old true freshman who one
year ago was getting ready for the Texas high school football playoffs.The
nations No. 1 team entering the weekend will still be its No. 1 team at weekends
end -- still the queen, beauty or otherwise.People know that we can compete in
the track meets because weve done that plenty, said Saban, reminding that his
team had averaged nearly 44 points per game in the eight contests prior to
Saturday night. Now we know we can win when we play ugly, too. There will be a
lot to learn from this film, but itll be ugly film to watch.Coming soon, to a
nickelodeon near you.
