*****W Virginia vs Iowa (W) Game Thread*****

It would be nice if Iowa had a lightning-quick guard who can drive to the basket and make WVU pay for their aggressive defense. Clark is struggling to get around the faster defenders.
 
I’d play Affolter the rest of the way. At least she can drive to the hoop. Kylie probably should sit. Let McCabe spell Syd for a few minutes. Fewer dum passes and take the short jumper instead of forcing another pass into the post. WVU is giving the short jumper and stopping the extra pass to Hanmah.
 
We really got shafted with this seeding too

We get a 25-7 record 8 seed

Here are the other 8 seeds:

Kansas 20-12
UNC 20-13
Bama 24-10

Bullshit
Enough crying about the seeds. Are we one of the top dogs in the tournament or not? can’t have an easy matchup every round
 
WV's tallest player sits most of the half w/ 2 fouls, and Bluder can't take advantage of a size mismatch. The fact they never run any 2 post sets is dereliction of duty. Hawks could go hi-low at will or kick out for an uncontested 3.

I'd hope we are telling our bigs to PAY ATTENTION after they get a defensive rebound.

WV is sprinting towards Caitlin and getting hands on the ball on outlet passes. At least one turnover was off that alone.

Also STOP the baseline out of bounds play with Clark to Hannah. They are trapping that corner inbound immediately.

Lisa's gotta step up!
 
WVU had 10 pts off the 9 Iowa turnovers.

Iowa did not score in the last 4:49.

Shooting like this is not getting you back to the Title game.

3-12 (25%) from 3
7-12 (58%) from 2
.................................
10-24 (42%) Overall

3-3 (100%) FTs

Creighton 7 ahead of ucla half way thru 2nd qtr. Making alot of mid jump shots.

Unfortunately, our post players are too slow, and cannot cannot be trusted with the ball against their defenders

Short jumper be very good

I was wondering about their seeding... When they only lost 7 games. They have some real clunker losses?

They play WVU at Carver in the final home game for Clark, Martin, and Marshall. No excuses.
 
lot of missed layups and a lot of layups with no calls. Only shooting 3 free throws this half against a d that aggressive is crazy low.
It happens when you don't recruit a couple of physical players who can create during post-season. Same song w/ the men's team

Yes, it was a shitty offensive effort but let's not forget that Iowa is playing really good defense tonight. 9 turnovers, poor shooting, and they still had the lead at halftime. Hopefully Bluder and co. make changes to open things up a bit in the 2nd half.
