2023 SC Gamecocks Basketball, Part II (merged)

[azfan]

Held USF to 29% and out rebounded them by 27.

Just smothered them in the second half.

I thought the first half was a great battle.

Definitely close in the first quarter. This one really illustrated the tremendous depth and relentless rebounding of USC.

Dawn played all 14, 11 scored, 9 players double digit minutes and 24 offensive rebounds. All Husky fans we remember the 25 offensive rebounds USC collected on February 5. Just another day at the office as the Gamecocks extend their streak to 40.

Best announcer in basketball Rebecca Lobo at the half of Georgia Iowa made the following comments about USC the presumptive national champion

1. They know who they are
2. 24 offensive rebounds
3. Deep roster

Jada Walker (PG) out of Kentucky is in the Portal . At 5ft6-she was very effective as a PG in the SEc. I know the staff had interest the first time around when she was being recruited.

I doubt she would want to come here if she wants to be a starter. Next year is the beginning of Raven Johnson show. She would be a fantastic backup, though...

Next year will be so different, but very entertaining to see how it fits.

Will probably regret the desire to see something new, but that's college.

I’m with you. We have seen the “bench” often when they sub out 5 for 5. It’s instant energy, but IDK if they can sustain it for an entire game. There are some excellent defenders in that group (Breezy and Raven) so at least that’s a start. I think next year it’s going to be fun and frantic whereas this year has been slow and steady. Next year will be a team that gets better with time. Dawn better bring her patience. .

This is really good. Did not realize Zia and Aliyah were roommates in USA basketball.

Brea with pretty strong statement she’s not sticking around for another year of school.

She definitely should! No one else on their roster has a shot that automatic!

FINAL FOURRRRRRRRR

Great game, Maryland. Brenda doesn't get enough credit for her coaching. She did a phenomenal job this year.

 

[Darwin]

Md had a great game plan, best one I have seen against SC in awhile. They just could not compete on the boards where S.C. had almost as many offensive rebounds as Md had total. SC is a beast.

Great game, Maryland. Brenda doesn't get enough credit for her coaching. She did a phenomenal job this year.

She assembles an elite 8 team on the fly every year.

No question she's one of the best.

Couldn't sustain the energy and foul trouble did the rest.

Then when the pressure on perimeter subsided, they paid the price in the paint.

4 down two to go. None of the other three FF teams can beat SC. There are a lot of doubting Thomases on the UConn side. Some weren’t convinced SC would repeat. I think Iowa will give SC a better game than either LSU or Virginia Tech. I’ll be watching next week as I watched tonight. Your toughest game next week will be on Friday against Iowa. Congratulations Gamecock Nation.

Agreed. Brilliant game plan and great effort. Her team shot 50% from the floor and from 3, yet the game never felt like it was in question due to how dominant Maryland was on the glass. Shows how dominant SC can be even when another team plays great basketball.
