The front angle shows this way better than the slowmo one, but she moved her legs to the spot way too late and there was immediate contact. It was just an ugly screen, and I agree that it's a weak call in that situation, but Uconn got away with some serious hacks throughout the game. Stuelke getting clobbered from behind on an obvious and1 comes to mind.
Edit, that call is not going to do Iowa any favors

Boy, I'd hate to play in a game where an official won't call obvious fouls.
So you're part of the problem. Good to know.
As a person who has only witnessed one title as a fan (Cubs 2016) and been gut punched by shit call after shit call in my entire sports life..............
I. Don't. Give. A. ****. What other people think. That was the greatest and most perfect call that has ever been made in women's college basketball.
Middle fingers to the ****ing Bluebloods crying about getting shafted on a call.
**** all of them, I'm enjoying every single one of their Blueblood tears. Love it, ****ing love it.

So if the defender on the player gets taken out by an extended elbow, taking her out of the play, is that letting the players decide? Bueckers was about to try doubled and trapped if not for that elbow.
Totally agree. She moved and threw a forearm. Pretty obvious call even though ESEcPN said it was a bad call.
LMAO - the King needs to work on his receding hairline!
Seeing dawn staley laugh after Kate Martin got bloody nose, just gave the feeling she was saying something trashy.
UConn got what they deserved. They should have scaled things back contact wise when they began getting attention of whistles. They didn’t adjust.

From this angle there's no doubt, the most obvious moving screen you've ever seen but OFC they keep showing the up close shot from a terrible angle.
Remember when CC missed a ft and nobody boxed out for UConn? I do.
That illegal screen gets called in the first quarter...then you call it in the fourth quarter.
Clearly extended elbow.
Clearly extended elbow.
watching it in real time speed, it def. is a foul...
Ya. SVP won't stop. Lol. Fouls a foul
Every iffy call against Iowa is a national conspiracy.
Every iffy call for Iowa is justified.
That’s called fan 101. Nobody for any team says they won because of the refs, everybody has a 6 pack worth of beer stories for the times the refs screwed them.
It’s laughable to not step back and see that for any fan base.
And most neutral fans are pissed they were denied a fantastic finish via the do or die shot.

I’d say this picture is a pretty good still shot of how far the screener moved to set this screen.
yeah, after she made the first - I would have bet my mortgage on her making the second....ala MJ during the 90's Bulls Run...
Definitely a moving screen and it freed up paige. Got to call it
Watch this angle and it's not even questionable. Feet moving and she's sliding.
@BlameIt I have a suspicion is not an Iowa fan.
I didn’t know fouls are only able to be called at certain times🤷♂️
Wow… that replay really nailed it. I didn’t realize she was moving like that.
Absolutely. Correct call. Unfortunate timing. It’s only controversial because of the time on the clock. Just because there’s less than 5 seconds doesn’t mean you can do whatever the hell you want. There are still rules!
All UConn had to do was rebound Clark’s missed FT and call time and they could have had that shot
Nothing more to see. Beautiful angle
Well, it’s a pretty convincing foul there.
It was a foul though. Edwards was sliding and leaning. She extended her arms away from her body which clothes lined Gabby.

UConn risked setting an illegal screen thinking the refs wouldn’t call it, and we still defended the play incredibly. The refs had the balls to call it.
Now our girls are gonna get all the hate directed at them. **** that.

The replays did no justice to the call.
They didn't show her lower body, which clearly moved into Gabbie. I'm not saying I would call it in that situation, but it's a call that gets made often throughout the game.
But again, the replays didn't show her body moving at all, just the elbow sticking out slightly.

Was going to post same clip. Notice you won’t see it on any espn channel or the Clark clark haters will ignore this angle. It was definitely moving screen. Time and situation I get why it’s tough pill to swallow on the other side and it takes balls to make the call. but end of the day it was a moving screen.
I'd have to go back and watch, but it was like, 1-2 offensive possessions before this one where Gabbie got absolutely trucked on a moving screen with no call. UCONN was playing that shit all game with the screens and got bit at the worst time.
Boo ****ing hoo.
Boo ****ing hoo.
After watching it for the thousandth time, not only is Edwards sliding in, but her stance goes from the free throw line to the three point line. Really just piss poor fundamentals of setting a screen.
Once again, correct call, unfortunate timing.

Even with ESPN's shitty ass angle how could you say that's not a foul. Unless you are agenda driven. Oh that's right we are talking about ESPN.

Obvious moving screen. Not sure why it is a big deal.
If Gabbie would have knocked Paige over, would that be called? or, just let them play?
The whole discussion is dumb

They also failed to rebound the missed free throw. Selective outrage is amusing. As it's often said...if you really want to win, don't leave it up to the officials.
From a neutral fan perspective, it does suck. As a fan, you want to see them get a shot up to try to win it. It was still a foul though.
yup, I am sure Geno & Co. has gotten away with that crap more than a few times in the past....nice to see some chinks in the blueblood armor....
