I disagree. I'd put McGraw in that category, but she sadly wasn't playing. Didn't you just say you were capable of objectivity? McGraw has a good pass percentage of ~47% over the last two years. If you think she is an elite passer don't know what elite looks like. I agree ball control is a problem for the Gophers but it has been a problem for 2 years, not just today. My mistake.

I hope Pitt keeps going tbh. It looks better for us and they’re playing well

What stats do you have for me on free ball passing? huh? Kilkelly weirdly doesn't seem to pass free balls better than non DS's on the team.

While this looks like a shocking upset, Minnesota had a lot of holes and was a very incomplete team. I would not have predicted this outcome but I’m not shocked either. Inconsistent passing team, inconsistent left side attacking, a middle that doesn’t produce offense. Freshman setter who also has limitations....

I have some opinions that I will keep to myself (for now), but I did find it interesting that the one thing we thought might be this team's downfall -- serve receive -- really wasn't that big of a factor.
C'est la vie. I think we lost sight of what were real expectations for this team. They still fell short of them, but not that far.

I think McGraw is the main emotional leader on the court, she’s very animated and hypes up the team. Definitely needed that today.

The % of passes that are in system or 2+ on a 3 point scale.

what does "good pass percentage" stat mean? The % of passes that are in system or 2+ on a 3 point scale. and you're saying that MN's passes below a 2 are around 55%. Where do you find that statistic?

I would be surprised if that is the definition of that statistic.
