Women’s NCAA Tournament

[Cazzie22]

Iowa got off to a good start and I am impressed with Idaho St battling Kentucky.  Oklahoma St is another surprise.  It will be interesting to follow B1G schools.

I see Leigh Brown had 28 in Michigan's win. Just watched part of the game, but she has improved.

[All About the Corn]

Brown went off for 19 points in the 3rd quarter. Finally looks like she did before CV19 shut her down for 39 days.

Plus Hilmon getting triple teamed gave Leigha lots of open looks in the 12 footer floater range where she is deadly.

Watching the Rutgers play and we are 3 minutes into the game and they make me feel disgusted. The way they play may be up in your grill push you around style but the way they do it and act makes me wish they lose every game they ever play. I just dont get it how year in and year out they play and act the same every year.

near the end of the season, i believe it was ruby porter that made a play underneath the basket---opponent rebounded the ball and porter went in and "tied" it up. however, she was called for a foul. it looked pretty clean, first thing that popped into my mind is no way this is called a foul if it was Rutgers!!!

Go Cougars!

Look no further than the head coach.  There you will find the source.

Speaking of Rutgers and their mugging I mean defense. Matt C made the comment about enjoying a defensive game after our win this year. Now I do not mind some defense but what they play IMHO has no place in the game anymore. It is not an enjoyable game to watch or listen to. Now maybe that is just me. After 50 years it's time she hangs up her clipboard.

This will be the one time of the year I will cheer for Iowa. I hope they kick some butt today and going forward!!!

Clark 16 points in 12 minutes. Iowa up by 19... They on fire

[Cazzie22]

Iowa is going to be a force the next few years. Checking the roster all of their key players are Jrs or younger.  Clark is great the first half against Kentucky.  Czinano is a very good center.

Why?

[KarlHessEatMy....]

Nebraska is not in it!! They are B1G.... And how can you not like watching Clark all day long!!

[Cazzie22]

Leigha Brown and Michigan are looking good against Tennessee. Hate to lose a player of that caliber. 

[KarlHessEatMy....]

I honestly not sure if we would of done as good as a team this year if she was still here to be honest

She’s OK to watch,  but I despise Iowa.   You can be an Iowa fan boy all u want.  And Big 10 loyalty.....that’s hilarious!

Pretty sure that’s a big miss 

[Cazzie22]

So many blowouts today. Still too much disparity between the top teams and the wannabes.

Would guess, and it's a guess,  if she had been starting and playing good minutes here, she would have stayed. Never understood why our best offensive weapon was sitting the bench. But we'll never know if it was a simple as that.

Naturally, today I've got a rooting interest for Northwestern to upset Louisville. 

[All About the Corn]

Clark just does so many things well and is a pleasure to watch. It could be a long three more years for us while she is at Iowa.

Michigan just exerted their will on TN. Played good defense. Brown had 4 inbound plays against FGC and 2-3 against TN that was money. One thing NE needs to get better at for next year. 

[Tom Jones]

About Iowa's Clark .... let's hope she can early out from college and just go to the WNBA next month.  Thinking about playing against her for the next 3 years ... it's a nightmare!

 

[KarlHessEatMy....]

I keep hoping Clark will just transfer to my other favorite team in UCONN and play with Bueckers. Would save us the headache!!
