2023-2024 Women’s College Basketball

[InstaFace]

Stuelke panicked there.

 

[JokersWildJIMED]

Iowa all time choke

 

[Ale Xander]

Hahahahahahaha

 

[InstaFace]

Refball is undefeated

 

[shawnrbu]

LOL

 

[canderson]

What a brutal end of game call

 

[The_Powa_of_Seiji_Ozawa]

That's a lame call.

 

[luckiestman]

Everybody paid to see the refs

 

[Catcher Block]

That's.....not a call you make there.

 

[bosox188]

SHE DIDN'T DO A FUCKING THING

 

[HurstSoGood]

What a terrible foul call. Unreal.

 

[shawnrbu]

At least that uses up Yukon’s foul to give.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Lmao bag job

 

[Catcher Block]

Potential for a Chris Webber here.

 

[nattysez]

Good to know the refs suck at every level.

 

[bankshot1]

You don't make that call.

 

[Ale Xander]

Good board

 

[Catcher Block]

Iowa has no business winning this after those two possessions.

 

[canderson]

That rebound seals this one. Great game.

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME WITH THAT CALL. We didn't come here to watch the refs. She was standing still to set that screen

 

[shawnrbu]

What a bagjob.

 

[Ale Xander]

Clark is smart like a fox

 

[shawnrbu]

Cerebral play.

 

[Catcher Block]

Holy shit. That's an MJ play from Clark.

 

[curly2]

What a bullshit foul call.

 

[InstaFace]

SHE DIDN'T DO A FUCKING THING

There was a bit of an elbow, but that's just not a moving screen, from everything Scalabrine has ever told me. She was square to the defender, didn't move her feet, the lean was slight, she was set early enough that the defender had a step to see her. All I can think they were seeing was the elbow a little outside her body.

 

[Ale Xander]

Bam Adebayo is somewhere laughing his ass off

 

[luckiestman]

That was such a ridiculous call to steal a true ending

 

[riboflav]

The refs sucked the energy of that ending and robbed everyone in the process of a great end

The smaller person sold the contact and the ref fell for it. Inexcusable.

 

[jcd0805]

Not mad Clark advances but UConn seems to have been kinda screwed, that’s a bummer.

 

[LynnRice75]

Glad Iowa won, but that was a lame final minute. Two turnovers, and a bailout call. Would’ve loved to see UConn get a shot or see Iowa get a stop.

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

That should have been determined by the players on the court, just disapppinted.

 

[Doug Beerabelli]

That call was a bit…fishy.

But added millions of more viewers to the next game.

 

[patinorange]

Holy shit. That's an MJ play from Clark.

She wasn’t completely awesome tonight. But what a joy to watch.

 

[The_Powa_of_Seiji_Ozawa]

Couldn't have scripted this better if it were the WWE.

Not impressed by Iowa at all.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Odds that screen call is mentioned in the wake of this one since we need to show all generations of the Clark family rejoicing?

 

[BigSoxFan]

Have no dog in this fight but that was a “get Caitlin Clark to the finals game” call.

I think South Carolina will destroy Iowa.

 

[Foxy42]

Wow. That was as bogus a call as I can recall in any Final Four game. Bag job to get Clark into final. Disgusting.

 

[HurstSoGood]

That was about as close to a Dusty Finish as you can get in Women's BB.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Clark and Iowa didn’t play great and still won. What are the chances they play two bad games in a row? Sunday will be a great one.

 

[InstaFace]

That was such a ridiculous call to steal a true ending

yeah, we were about to get a great UConn ATO play, probably an outside shot by Paige, to win or lose at the buzzer. Would've been a classic moment.

Sometimes you've got to make the foul call, or the rules have no meaning. This was... not one of those times.

 

[bankshot1]

Defender crashed the screen and then the elbow came up. Terrible call in that situation.

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

My wife knew one of the refs on the floor by name being a season ticket holder to the Sun of the WNBA, which is never a good sign for the quality of the ref.

 

[shawnrbu]

Wow. That was as bogus a call as I can recall in any Final Four game. Bag job to get Clark into final. Disgusting.

Duke/Arizona in 2001, but that was the entire game. Duke/Wisconsin in 2015 also.

 

[InstaFace]

I think South Carolina will destroy Iowa.

That's what they said last year, and then Clark dropped 41 to bury South Carolina in the Final Four.

I'd imagine SC is favored by like 5-7 points though right now.

 

[BaseballJones]

Well I am clearly very biased here but that offensive foul call at the end was just… beyond comprehension. But then UConn did such a crap job boxing out on the missed free throw. That was also terrible.

SC is gonna roll Iowa unless Clark scores 40+.

Frustrating loss but so proud of the UConn women.

They really defended their asses off tonight. Just couldn't get a lot of good looks to fall.

But I'm never going to get over that call at the end.

 

[BaseballJones]

Total fouls:
UConn 18
Iowa 9

Free throws:
UConn 4
Iowa 14

And the biggie at the end to take away a chance for UConn to win it.

Paige missing the wide open three from the corner was a huge moment in the game. :-(

 

[Mystic Merlin]

SVP not having any of it with that screen call, good on him.
