RTC Live: Stanford @ Washington
Posted by rtmsf on February 12th, 2011Game #138. RTC Live is back in Seattle for another Pac-10 tilt; can the Huskies continue to show the dominance at home that they lack on the road?
In five Pac-10 home games, the Washington Huskies have dominated its competition by an average margin of victory of 22.2 points. The road has been a completely different story, though, as the Huskies have gone 3-4 in losing to some of the same teams they’ve rolled up at home. Tonight represents one of those situations, as Stanford visits Edmundson Pavilion a mere month after having beaten Washington in Palo Alto, 58-56. It was, in fact, the only team that the Cardinal defeated during a three-week period in mid-January. Since that time Johnny Dawkins’ team has come back to win three of four, including an impressive thirteen-point road win at Washington State on Thursday night. The Cardinal sits at 6-6 in league play, while Washington at 8-4 still has designs on catching UCLA and Arizona for the Pac-10 lead. Given the way the Huskies score in bunches in Seattle, Stanford is going to need to bring its absolute best defensive game to have a chance tonight. Join us for all the action tonight on a west coast edition of RTC Live.
