That's what the preseason polls were when they came out in the fall. We were behind So. Miss.

Not only did Rhonda's crew have high expectations, her team exceeded them.

I still think that the TCU game was where everything changed.

Congratulations to them and good luck in the CUSA tournament.

Don't know if the TCU game was where it changed, but as the season has gone on, the win there is proving to be huge. The TCU women are having a fantastic season. Their men's team is in the toilet much like ours. I think they have lost 7 out of their last 8 in spite of the marvelus talent some on here have said that Christian signed.

Consider where we were before the TCU game and afterwards. I think I would have many other WBB followers agree with that. We had not won in FW in about 4-5 years. They had great wins over Maryland and California prior to playing us.

Don't sell that win short. That said, part of the key stretch for us winning the league crown was the three-game road winning streak at Tulsa, Tulane and UTEP.

I agree. It was a great win. And to be truthful, a pleasantly surprising one.
