MD didn't slow the game down. Vic ran down the clock on every possession. Hard to run up and down the court when you're defending for 30 seconds and then taking the ball out of the basket.
Well who has won a title since 2005? Geno, Kim, Pat, Muffett, Blair, Staley. That's it.
When you go, you go hard.
That’s fair. Her teams are mentally weak to me when the lights get bright and adversity hits.
Well it was here for the gamblers............ Betting public thinks Maryland continues historic run, thinks Oregon-Louisville upset is in the cards
They were creaming everyone they played and hadn't lost since January. Then they got back Reese, who'd shown her stuff. Pretty silly question.
Especially considering they started down 9-0 too. They held Maryland to 51 points in the last 37 minutes...that's astounding. Maryland had one of the most prolific offenses of all time and Texas controlled pace of play and completely stifled them.
I picked Texas not because I thought they were the better team talent wise but because of Vic and the way his team performs in the tournament. Also I never thought of Maryland as some invincible force. I posted in another thread that I thought SC could hold them down because we were more athletic than they were and teams do not shoot a high percentage from the 3 on SC. It is hard to shoot 3s at the clip they were shooting at for 6 games. In the tournament you have to have more than one way to beat teams because of matchups.
I actually think this team may stick together. Well the stars at least.
Good lord you act like SC is a doormat. If we win Tuesday stay off the bandwagon. i mean we’ve won 7 straight games of do or die basketball. I think we match up very well with Texas. We will be quicker for sure and Vic and Dawn know each other like a glove.
Anyone notice that Reese barely saw the court this game? She was 0-6 with a bunch of unproductive minutes. Meanwhile Vic only played 6 players.
I feel the same way. The reason being is because they both focus on defense. They both don’t really have an offense. They both don’t really have 3 point shooters. It’s gonna be close, but SC just has more talent and can figure out ways to make things happen. Collier running around the high post and 3 point line won’t work against SC
Pretty wild how Tara hasn’t won a Natty since 1992
Those are facts.
Girl let it go
Seriously? That's a South Carolina fan mocking everybody who is doubting South Carolina. I thought that was blatantly obvious, but apparently not.
Agreed. Miller/Reese seem to really enjoy playing out there and Owusu is playing close to home and is the star of the team. Benzan/Bibby are in grad school, Collins already transferred once and it's rare that juniors leave unless they grad transfer.
What Vic is doing at Texas and McCray is doing at MSU year one says all that needs to be said
Most of Benzan's missed jumpers were open. But they did a good job on Owusu and stopping the pick and roll game.
