RU did defeat the #1 team in the nation two weeks in a row!

Time sure drags in Tennessee. Only in Knoxville does 0.2 seconds not only feel like it lasts more than six times longer than other places, but here's the visual proof that 0.2 seconds lasts 1.3 seconds when the Lady Vols need a little help from the clock:

If the video link goes down, here's a succinct recap from Scarlet Knights Newzer.
Now the gamecast mystery from last night isn't so mysterious anymore; they had it right the first time.
Go Knights! And congratulations from Beat Visitor on the big win!

What a Tease!, or That's enough of the Pink Uniforms

The gametracker at UTLadyVols.com ran the following final score a few minutes ago, confirming that the Scarlet Knights had done the impossible and the unprecedented, beating the #1 team in the country in consecutive games:

Then I called a friend who actually had a television with cable who told me that there was a foul and time on the clock. And two minutes later the teases at UTLadyVols.com posted this alternate (and final) final score:
The Scarlet Knights will have to save their victory over the Lady Volunteers for a date in very late March or very early April (and put their pink jerseys back into the closet).

Games don't get any bigger than this (... at least in the regular season)

Tonight at seven -- in just two hours -- the Rutgers women will have the opportunity to:

1) ... avenge the loss of April 3, 2007 in the NCAA finals (and the losses to Tennessee in 2005 and 2006 that ended the Scarlet Knights' runs in those NCAA tournaments).

2) ... become the first team to beat the #1 team in the country in consecutive games.

3) ... almost certainly clinch a top seed in the NCAA tournament.

&

4) Do it all while wearing pink uniforms.

Beating #1 Connecticut last week was only a warm up for tonight's match against #1 Tennessee.

No pressure (but if they win this one, they should be the Pink Knights for the duration of the '07-'08 season).

Go Knights!!

This is why you don't throw your white uniforms in the same washer with the scarlet ones!

The Rutgers women will be playing their rematch of last year's NCAA Championship game against Tennessee on Monday, February 11 down in Knoxville. Our team will be wearing the outfits to your left, not because of a foul-up in the laundry, but to support a cause.

Let's hope that Imus & Friends think that they look pretty in pink (though we don't really give a fuck what that old fart thinks).

Seriously though, with Rutgers having beaten #1 Connecticut this past Wednesday, Tennessee will move up into the top spot by the time Epiphanny Prince and friends travel south. Can the Scarlet Knights knock off the #1 team in the country two weeks in a row?
