I think the best indicator or Tara and her coaching staff's greatness was their defense. They have been one of the only teams in the country to be able to slow Brittney Griner and Baylor down. They did it in the FInal Four too. It was an effective strategy executed well by the team to limit Griner's touches and to take away what they wanted to do. The big difference in this game from the Final Four was we made our 3 point shots. This opened up the scoring AND the court so we go better looks and made them. I also saw some offensive tactics with our guards driving the lane and getting Griner to commit and then dishing it off to Chiney or one of our bigs crashing into the lane. It was effective in clearing a space nearer the basket for mid-range jumpers without Griner blocking the shot.

This Baylor team blew #5 Kentucky 85-51 just a few days ago.
