And no. Butler was not out of bounds. It was close, but he was clearly an inch or two away from being out.

If FAU was the better team they would have won. GTFO.

What cost FAU was they allowed SDSU 3 or 4 times in a row to get offensive rebounds off foul shots that were missed which either led a made basket or another foul. They got out hustled in the rebound department

First time ever I’m more interested in watching the woman’s final than the men’s final.

I really dont know how you defend Clark at this point. Letting her get off a shot is foolish but if you double her she’ll make you pay with her vision.

LSU said they were going to make Clark play defense. None of that just daring their guards to shoot she did with SC

Kim Mulkey dresses like a lounge singer at an off-the-strip casino that's on the verge of going bankrupt.

It’ll suck if LSU wins. Though I had a feeling they’d win. In college basketball it’s so hard for one superstar to win it all. It rarely happens. They always come up short

I think it is meant to inspire confidence in her players. Like you going to play scared while I’m out here wearing this.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Now this is what awful reffing truly looks like. Calling Caitlin Clark for 2 offensive fouls that were legit easy defensive hand checks in the first half is inexcusable. Legit the worst thing ever for women's basketball which had the most hype it ever did. The refs called that first one on Clark right after Mulkey threw a tantrum about it. Pathetic.

Not to mention Mulkey needs to step off the court and stop stomping around in a manner that would make Jimmy wah wah Boeheim say that she needs to control herself.

Jasmine Carson and LSU killing it so far. Very physical and shooting the lights out. Clark started well but now frustrated and on the bench with foul trouble. 17 point LSU lead at the half.

Iowa just doesn't have many weapons. LSU has a lot of shooters hitting shots. Lots of physical play, I think all this foul trouble will sink the Hawks faster than the Tigers. Iowa matched SCs size because SC couldn't hit a 3. LSU can.

Go Hawks!
