Hello, Miss Riley

If you’re watching at home, yes, Andrea Riley in person is taking over this game just like your television set is showing she is. Four straight baskets on four straight possessions. Two straight steals on the A&M perimeter. She’s about to go to the foul line with a chance to erase OSU’s 53-52 deficit, with 3:07 remaining.

These are the best two teams in the Big 12, and they are putting on a show in the league title game. Riley, with 23 points and counting, is making her case for Big 12 player of the year, which went to Courtney Paris but might be in jeopardy if there was a recount.
