UNI battled and McDermott is a gem. That being said, Panthers had a lot of ugly FG makes. If they got the ball above the rim it somehow would roll in; banked in a free throw. Really closer to a 15 point game.

Yes. They went through a stretch were every shot dropped including a 1 handed 27ft push shot 3 🤷♂️
I’m not sure anyone played particularly great outside McCabe and HS and they strangely went away from her for stretches. Hannah should shoot 15 times a game.
Taylor McCabe played the 4th most minutes (29). Only Lucy (34), Addie (32) and Hannah (31) played more.
She was 5-8 (63%) from three for 15 points, 3 assists, 2 rebounds and 2 steals.
Here was 2 of her HUGE 3 pointers:

Kylie is a bad shooter that makes just enough shots to think she is a good shooter. Every year she has had a couple of games where she shoots it really well and then it disappears. Her role should be to play defense and attack the basket off the dribble and hopefully get some and ones.
Think it was more that O'Grady needed a breather, Heiden already had 2 quick fouls, and we were up ~15 so Jan thought why the hell not.
I think that seems the likely case, but doesn't explain Heiden not playing in the second half. Obviously Jensen should not have been comfortable at any point in that game.
I still think it's a little curious.
Didn't watch the game, listened on the radio here and there. I just read through the game thread, seeing all the opinions about this Iowa team is bad and sputtered in the game. Then I saw Iowa scored 92 points.
My short take: Hawks 20/22 from the line, IMO that won the game as much as anything. UNI scrappy and McDermott is for real. I’ll take the win.
How has uni lost 6 times now. That’s a rock solid team.
To their credit, UNI has played a difficult schedule with these losses:
1 - Creighton
2 - at SDSU (as discussed elsewhere, SDSU is really good)
3 - Ball State (the one bad loss but the game they lost Grace B. (they’re second best player and best big) in 2nd quarter and couldn’t adapt / adjust mid-game)
4 - Auburn by 1 point, neutral
5 - Kansas by 3 points, neutral
6 - at Iowa by 6 points.
Wins versus major conference opponents in ISU and Pitt.
They have a good shot at the MVC automatic NCAA tournament bid I believe.
