Becca McCann, Mary Berdo, Randy Peterson, Jennie Lilis, Cara Consuegra, Lindsey Meader. Bottom right escapes me though.

Kristi Faulkner! Came to me during the game!

I don’t know about that…

I’ll say Bluder out coached the other coach,

SOCar was 11 point favorites, had won 42 in row and had elite size advantage

this is an example of frat coaching utilizing a single elite player

If SC had even 1 elite, possibly even decent 3pt shooter, our strategy was cooked. They did not.

“Coach Dawn Staley and South Carolina (36-1) had kept on winning since taking last year's title.

“I don’t think we felt pressure to win the game, we just didn’t perform,” Staley said. “And that hasn’t been us all season long.”


How about you got out played and out coached!!!

You knew it was coming.

What a moment. I was in the country on the outskirts of the big tornadoes. Our power got knocked out so we went to the generator. Some of the neighbors who didn't have power came over and we had a watch party. Had to restart the generator a few times, but we watched the whole game!! What a great night to be a Hawk fan!!!

So proud of the Hawks! The way they ran their offense against this powerhouse defensive team was amazing!

by definition that means Bluder identified a weakness and exploited it. That is what good coaches do.

saying something like the strategy was in error if The opponent actually possessed something they didn’t have is obtuse.

LOL, you can’t even celebrate a fantastic win without scouring post game comments for something to be aggrieved about.
Just enjoy and celebrate the win.

Do not think anyone was looking for your bold comment. She just went off on the postgame if you listened to it.

She'd sit behind a walk on.

I honestly think last night will be higher. People were waiting two years for that matchup.

He is probably especially interested in getting Caitlyn to join the football Hawks as she could single handedly net him the 25 points per game that he needs.

Totally classless losers, only credit given to Iowa or CC was "they had a good game plan but if we had made 3 shots in a row instead of missing we would have blown the game wide open".

Will Bluder retire before she graduates? She is in her early 60's and you never know how long someone will continue to coach.

No way

 

[Chewback]

I truly didn't think they could do it, SC just so damn big....but Iowa is definitely the better team!

Yeah, I figured they'd get the crap kicked out of them. Which they did. But they won the damn game anyway.

 

[Chewback]

LOL at Gary Barta lurking in the tunnel to get some TV time when CC passed by.

Was he rubbing his junk?

South Carolina and Dawn Staley looked scared all throughout last night’s game, hoping The Hawkeyes can finish the job! they truly deserve it !
