South Carolina is too big for Iowa though. They're gonna blitz Clark I'm sure. 10 deep roster.

Unsung hero: #24 who did an amazing job on Bueckers.

CC gave South Carolina their loss when they had a win streak and then they began a new streak.

Here they are meeting again

Almost a disaster for Iowa. UConn def has better coaching. Just not enough bodies.

They needed to call Edwards blatantly tackling Marshall when "screening" her just prior to that when UCONN got the wide open corner 3.

Though even that offensive foul that did get called is an obvious foul. NBA fans just accept terrible moving screens as part of the game because it facilitates high scoring.

One of the worst calls I’ve ever seen. Ruined the game.

mattg wrote:IMO this is a disaster half for UCONN. Clark is super off, nobody on Iowa can make a layup besides Stuelke, and no one can make even the most simple pass and they have TWELVE turnovers.

Conversely UCONN is in pretty bad foul trouble, already had their role players contribute scoring that will likely regress based on variance...and the game is still close.

You were spot on

This was hard to watch and I only got home in time for the last 6 minutes lol

Hopefully the Finals lives up to the hype. Clark was lucky to win this game.

Game was already pretty bad.

At the end of the day, the more fun outcome though. One last ride for Clark.

I gotta say though, Aaliyah Edwards had a game, nearly carried UConn all the way to the finish line. without Bueckers for a majority of the second half.

That was true last year And Iowa won.

I'm worried Geno laid out a blueprint though. He seems like one of the only coaches who can coordinate a defense in this league.
