#1 South Carolina vs #1 Stanford - 4/02/21

[MSGRET]

How many times did Stanford hack the SC players going up for shots?!? I guess fouls are now called jump balls. Horrendous officiating. The missed kick ball literally turned into a 4 point turnaround. Garbage.

In real time it looked like it was dribbled off of the foot, which is not considered a kicked ball. When they slowed it down it was a kicked ball. Can't blame the refs and it isn't a reviewable play.

South Carolina, UConn, and Stanford will be 3 of the FF next year and beyond. The question will be who the other one is lol

My predictions for next year as UCONN, Stanford, SC, and Baylor with Lousiville in the hunt. Unless Baylor schedules really weak and ends up facing another UCONN elite matchup next year

 

[HuskyNan]

I heard that, too. Hope the fans would be better than that despite their preferred team.

Wondering if she has a nickname that sounds like a boo? I say that because I was sitting next to an ND fan when Katie Lou Samuelson hit a three and the crowd went ”Louuuuuu”. The ND fan asked me why we were booing her

The 2023 and 2024 WNBA draft classes will be super deep in talent.

 

[Vowelguy]

Good point!

 

[topogigio]

Great game. could have went either way. Thought ESPN cameras were obnoxious with close ups on Boston crying, while giving zero time to Stanford celebrating. Nothing like making a kid who is feeling bad, feel worse! Also, great sportsmanship by Stanford players hugging and consoling Boston.

Baylor always plays a weak schedule lol

 

[Floridaduck]

Not sure about the last second TO by Brink. Hard to hang on the the ball when two people smash into you for a sandwich play. Brink shoulda gone to the line there. But hey that’s just me.

They do. The usually play a couple high profile matchups for OOC but the other part of their OOC has to be better, if not it only hurts their seeding due to bad SOS. Playing teams in the 200's and 300's does absolutely nothing. If they would schedule more top 100/50 teams, maybe that would make a difference for their resume.

Watching the post-game press, Haley Jones is very likable.

 

[GoCardinal]

SO PROUD OF THIS TEAM! Haley had the best game of her Stanford career and Cameron was amazing defensively on the bigger SC posts.

Also, really glad we picked up the win. Maybe the SC fans there can learn to be classy on the way home.

Stop showing Boston

I said the same thing!

Baylor most likely. Im counting on them being a highly powered offensive team and a decent defensive team with a little drop after losing Richards.

I'm booking on them to grab a portal player too.

I don't disagree, but she should've been on the bench earlier after she pushed Henderson a few plays before and didn't get called for her 5th foul. After she made the huge block on Boston too.

Michael Wilbon unbiased??? He makes his living being biased, doesn't he?

 

[Plebe]

The joy of victory and the agony of defeat.

I don't envy anyone who carries the heartbreak of missing a would-be game-winning buzzer-beater.

The cameras unjustly lingered on Aliyah Boston. It was not an extremely easy follow-up. Beal's shot was equally as makeable IMO, but it wasn't uncontested either.

Boston has a very bright future, as does the South Carolina program, and I'm sure both will turn the hurt of this moment into fuel for future success.

I was referring to him not being a sc or stanford fan

 

[JstVisiting]

Excellent point. SC could have easily won the game, Stanford was a little bit better tonight

They really weren’t. 50-50 called game and they’re going home.

 

[Gamecockfan77]

Got to stop losing these final four games on offensive rebounds off wildly errant shots.

 

[Go/huskies]

Unless Dawn can bring in a consistent outside shooter, and a stretch four player so Boston can get back down in the low post I can’t see this SC team winning a championship.

Ok. For some reason, and I can't cite examples, I thought he was a SC/Dawn fan. But I am guessing it was when SC won their NC.

I really wish that was Cooke with the possession. Beal normally make those but Stanford players can play D

 

[npignatjr]

Boston got away with a moving screen. She gets away with a lot of those...

I'll show my age she is better at that than Jerry Kramer

 

[Blueballer]

Then again, they only lost this game by one point. A few extra made FT's could have changed that.
