Gustafson was voted espnW All American 3rd team. There are 4 centers among the 15 players, ahead of her are two 6-7 centers on the 1st and 2nd teams.

Great seed but please let Charlie Crème be wrong on the matchup. I don't get South Dakota State as an 11 seed and first round opponent. They play in a lesser conference, but their RPI is only 28 compared to Iowa's 21. And they beat Iowa here a year ago in the Hawkeye Challenge with most of the same players. This smacks of Iowa getting the short end of a bracket fix.

What hoops do I have to jump through to watch the women's selection show online Monday at 6:00 CDT? It is marked with a key so that means I have to pay?

That's right @RebeccaLobo, @GustafsonMeg10 is the most efficient scorer in the country. She averages 1.39 points each time she tries to shoot, including when fouled. All her stats at herhoopstats.com/player/1735867 @IowaWBB stats: herhoopstats.com/team/312 @ncaawbb @ESPN_WomenHoop

Rutgers had the dubious honor of being the highest RPI team (#40) to not be selected for the NCAA tournament. They had an excellent non-conference season but fell apart down the stretch, losing 10 of their last 14 games. I guess how you finish still matters to the women's selection committee. This was supposed to be a comeback year for Coach Stringer. They had several transfers who became eligible this season.
So Vivian is stuck on 997 career wins until next year. She said she wanted the record to come in the NCAA tournament, not the WNIT.
Oklahoma was the team that supposedly took Rutgers' place. Had they been left out, that would have been a #35 RPI team with a winning conference record in a P5 conference.
I found Drake on DISH #146 today, not HD, and it looks like that is where Iowa is also. Sucks no HD.
That channel is part of an ESPN college package. Assuming you have it. We do not and the onscreen message informed us of that. Streamed it though. Jennie’s team played a great game. Hope our kids play as smart and hard tomorrow.
Where did you stream it? We have no cable and hope to watch the Iowa women’s game.
I'm a little confused by that, too. ESPN2 is showing the NCAA wrestling championship final round at 7 (Iowa's Spencer Lee will be in the first match), so they don't want those games running late. UCLA plays before us, starting at 230 CDT, so they cannot completely control when our game starts.
Don’t forget about the VFW on Hwy 6 if you live near IC. I would be there for every game watch if I lived in the area. Tim Long sounds like my kind of fan.
I do not have ESPN college package. I think they are just using those channels as overflow. Drake played great, but AM had huge advantage on home court and much longer players. I would like to see Jenny B coaching Iowa some day (sooner the better IMO).
We ended up trying Big Grove Brewery in Solon, but crowded and loud. If we got seated we would be lucky to see a tv. We are at Frida’s in Solon with our party of 6. They graciously put on ESPN2. No game yet.
Guards are really hurting this team. Zero penetration, can't get open, and loose with the ball when passing. This team is one trick pony and that is MG. Does not bode well for NCAA wins unfortunately.
They are a player or 2 short of being really good. Bluder has done a nice job with what they have. Gustafson is a generational player. Opponents aren't made to pay for guarding her with 2 1/2 players every possession. She has 25 points on 13 shots. She could get 40 in this game easily if Iowa could space the floor with some shooting.
