ESPN writers have South Carolina, UCLA & LSU in the Final Four w/ either Colorado, NC State or UConn as the 4th Team
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
Hard to catch on the highlights, but the officials added a second to the clock .01 after Betts beat the buzzer for UCLA. This allowed OrSU the opportunity to get off yet another shot at the other end to win the game. --->Four potential game winners in the last 10 seconds. Crazy.
Here is the first Top-16 reveal, announced on Feb 15th. A second Top-16 reveal will take place on Feb. 29.
IF Iowa (Portland 4 region) were fortunate to make the Final 4, they would likely face South Carolina (Albany 1 region).

Idk how you can say with any confidence that South Carolina can smoke Iowa. They go through stretches where they can’t score and they have a size advantage over everyone they play. This past weekend they put up 29 in a half against a three win in conference play Georgia team. Every top 10 team has warts, and three point shooting minimizes Iowas and brightens several other teams.
I’m fine with Iowa being the number one two seed. I don’t mind those matchups at all. Best bracket we could for honestly. We handled a good va tech team and split games against KSU and I don’t think you could say Iowa played well in either game. Colorado seems like it’s designed pretty favorably for Iowas matchups. If it stay like this I’m happy as a clam.#14 Indiana lost at Illinois today, 86-66.

The latest ESPN bracket has Iowa dropping to a #2 seed in the Portland 2 region.
The one good thing, I guess, is that Iowa would not face South Carolina until the National Championship game.

Who's in and who's out? Surprises will likely come when the bracket is revealed (8 p.m. ET, ESPN), but not at the top. South Carolina is No. 1 overall.

If Iowa runs the table they'd beat OSU at Carver and likely have to go through Indiana and OSU in the b10 tournament, which would put them back as a one seed I'd think. Basically repeat last year after they got killed by Maryland, but then didn't lose again until the finale.
This. I think people still underestimate just how special last years March run was. It will take lightening in a bottle for a repeat of that......

Maybe Coaches' patience on Gabbie Marshall will pay off...
Though, I think the Georgia coach put a curse on her last year. The dreaded "pretty eyes" curse.

ESPN is to sports as the National Enquirer is to legit journalism.
She's exactly right; unless the Hawks get production from players other than Clark they are not a Final Four caliber team.
I agree somewhat but who would have guessed they would beat SC last year and make it to the finals?
There is definitely a blueprint for how to get CC off her game and get Iowa on their heels. The question now is if Bluder and the team can counteract that and stay in their game. Raining 3s from the bench would definitely help, but Clark is probably going to have to play even better than last year, which is probably asking too much.
This upcoming home game against a peaking OSU will probably provide many answers.

I agree with her reasoning and she has at least done her homework with bringing up Czinano and Warnock. Except did she forget that we already beat Virginia Tech THIS year? Feel like that last part was just for cheers.
