Idk if it was just me, but after rewatching the Regional Finals game against San Diego, the Stanford players looked emotion-less after they lost. Maybe they were shocked that they lost, or maybe I didn’t catch any tears from the players after the game, but I was expecting to see some of them in tears (and I don’t mean that in a bad way) just because of the circumstances, and it being a tough 5-setter. I only say that because I know I would be devastated in that situation. I was rewatching this earlier and that also stood out. I guess bc they had the momentum when they tied it st 9-9 but the shock could've been them realizing it just got away from them... that dig by Benbow on the rocket by Kipp at 10-9 changed the course of the match... also super random but the way Lukes physically assaulted Edwards at 12-9 after they roofed Kipp, had me thinking, why do players shove each other so hard, like is it to build momentum or what? I find it so funny The shoves and chest bumps are hilarious. I’ve asked my daughter if it hurts because these are not weak girls. I’m also always a little scared when they pile on the court after a win. |

I only say that because I know I would be devastated in that situation. they're kinda like that all year. they've done better about getting excited as the season went on, but they're definitely low on overall shown emotion compared to teams like nebraska, Louisville, wisco, texas, osu, san diego. Bairds facial expression hardly changes lol Sometimes all you need is that rush of adrenaline and emotion to get you fired up! I would like to see that from them in the future. |

Don Shaw actively avoided coaching a team to be like that. So did John Dunning. They believed overly emotional teams peaked at the wrong time for the wrong reasons.
