2023-2024 Women’s College Basketball

[JokersWildJIMED]

Her injury is the only reason this is close

Seemed to be moving fine

 

[Kliq]

This halftime show is about a billion times better than the abomination ESPN roles out for NBA games.

 

[LynnRice75]

Is there any link to watch this game? I have no cable provider and get get espn despite having espn plus via Hulu. Frustrating.

 

[luckiestman]

Seemed to be moving fine

I dont think she looks nearly as dominant since she came back in

 

[Lose Remerswaal]

Really leaning into their sinister reputation.

So gauche

 

[Lose Remerswaal]

Liked that Reggie Miller commercial for State Farm

 

[amh03]

I dont think she looks nearly as dominant since she came back in

Definitely slower moving down the court. Hope she can ice it & wrap it, maybe, in the break.

 

[ernieshore]

Yeah - this announcer is real annoying.

 

[JOBU]

Yeah - this announcer is real annoying.

At least he pronounced Schenectady right

 

[Lose Remerswaal]

LSU needs to double CC from halfcourt

 

[Kliq]

That last three from Clark was nonsense.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Clark needs to go supernova in the second half to pull this out.

Off to a good start

 

[jcd0805]

I’ll confess, my niece attends LSU and so I am rooting for them.

I have huge respect for Clark and her team…but shit like that LA Times article really, really digs at me.

Same, it’s infuriating.
And boom goes Caitlin!

 

[InstaFace]

LSU getting tired and "physical defense" is turning into lazy fouls.

Flau'jae Johnson is their only effective player on either end right now for LSU.

 

[Kliq]

I really like O'Grady. She is working her ass off on both ends doing a lot of the dirty work.

 

[InstaFace]

Mulkey should be the antagonist for an HBO drama. She's an incredible villain and matches that energy with her antics.

Some real Sue Sylvester energy from top to bottom with her.

"Ohhh, I am going to make an environment so toxic..."

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Flau'jae Johnson is their only effective player on either end right now for LSU.

I'm 100% on the Iowa bandwagon, but Johnson is really fun to watch

 

[Sad Sam Jones]

Mulkey should have tried coming up with a game plan tonight.

 

[biff_hardbody]

Reese has not been the same since she got hurt.

Feels like Clark has to score or assist every bucket for Iowa from here on out for them to win... But she might be able to do it.

Flau'jae Johnson has been outstanding.

That block was fantastic

 

[ifmanis5]

LSU looks they are toast.

 

[joe dokes]

Came to say the same. She was the 3rd iowa C to play. Hasnt come out since she went in. Stiff defense without a foul. Reese is diminished, but i think o'grady has made it tough.

 

[InstaFace]

Does LSU have 4 of the best 5 players on the court? Johnson, Reese, Morrow... Van Lith? OK, maybe it's just 3 of the best 4, but still, point is that Clark's teammates are "fine basketball players" but none will get even a sniff of the WNBA. They can run a college offense well enough to give their star a chance to shine, but they're a .500 team without Clark.

 

[InstaFace]

That block was fantastic

I had to stand in for Scal in this living room and say "get that [shot] outta here!"

 

[ifmanis5]

LSU looks they are toast.

Vibe shift!

 

[luckiestman]

Van Lith having a bad game

 

[InstaFace]

Came to say the same. She was the 3rd iowa C to play. Hasnt come out since she went in. Stiff defense without a foul. Reese is diminished, but i think o'grady has made it tough.

@benhogan would call her a "prototypical BEEF center". Mitchell Robinson vibes: can rebound, play stout D with enough strength to never get bullied around, and not embarrass herself around the rim, but most importantly - doesn't try to do more than that.

...Is that 3 throwaways for Van Lith? Man what an absolute hash LSU has made of this third quarter.

 

[strek1]

LONG way to go in this game. LSU can be tough in the 4th. When they get desperate they get even more physical.

 

[joe dokes]

Flying up and down the floor. Short benches. Who will tire first.

 

[Sad Sam Jones]

Van Lith having a bad game month

 

[Dollar]

LSU keeping it close but... Clark is ridiculous.

 

[moretsyndrome]

Flying up and down the floor. Short benches. Who will tire first.

Clark finally starting to look a little gassed at the end of the third.

 

[strek1]

Like to see Morrow get a flop warning.

 

[canderson]

That 3 might have put this away.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

She's unreal.

 

[luckiestman]

Second jump call I don’t understand

 

[strek1]

Clark finally starting to look a little gassed at the end of the third.

She looks pretty good to me. Still hitting from deep.

 

[Catcher Block]

Held ball with only one person holding it. That's a silly call.

 

[Senator Donut]

Van Lith trying to navigate ball screens on every defensive possession has definitely sapped her offense

EDIT: yup, here’s the adjustment

 

[InstaFace]

Second jump call I don’t understand

O'Grady took forever once she got it cleanly, just didn't find a teammate with it, while sitting there. After a few seconds you can bet an LSU player is going to get her hand on that ball, no?

wait are you saying no LSU player touched it? Maybe I need a replay.

 

[BaseballJones]

Held ball with only one person holding it. That's a silly call.

Should have been a foul on LSU.

Meanwhile…Clark is indeed ridiculous.

 

[joe dokes]

Holy Maravich, Batman.

 

[Catcher Block]

Clark really wanted the FU three.

 

[bankshot1]

Holy Maravich, Batman.

That's what I was thinking. In an ironic twist Clark is Maraviching this game.

 

[InstaFace]

well that's one way to foul out of an NCAA tournament game. Down in a blaze of glory.

 

[bosox188]

Holy shit that's not a charge

 

[canderson]

That’s not a charge

 

[Catcher Block]

That's textbook against a player lowering their shoulder like that. Got set and got clobbered.

 

[joe dokes]

Meh call on Reese. But only cause they missed the earlier LSU foul on the same play.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Holy shit that's not a charge

I though she ducked her shoulder
