I can't even imagine Geno having the talent that Kim had on her roster and not make the Final 4. They are absolutely loaded.

She allowed one player to beat her tonight.

 

[RedStickHusky]

Help me. What coach has done less than more than Kim Mulkey? She recruits out of her mind and can't bring it out. I think that screaming she does is not helpful at all in close games.

lefty driessell?

 

[Kaizen]

Right here baby!!! How are u???

I am good. Wish you have a good sleep tonight ~~~
Ps, Don't feel bad I believe you still love Geno and our girls.

ESPN is loving the drama of these games. But they're not loving ND and Baylor not making Dallas.

Holy Crap... I was out with friends... just walked in the door and was looking to see by how much Baylor beat Mississippi State to see that it was in overtime and Baylor was down by 9! Holy crap!

Way to go Mississippi State

Getting ready to stick pins in his Dawn Stanley doll.

That made me burst out laughing..

 

[DefenseBB]

i wonder if we can get the post game press conference? Anyone?

 

[tomcat]

Where's that guy who said Baylor was a lock to win it all?

Dale Brown?

You're talking about a coach that had one of if the not most transcendental player in the history of WCBB in Brittney Griner and could only win one championship. I've said it many times, Mulkey is a great recruiter but hardly a great coach.

Wonderful game
Delighted to see Baylor lose.

 

[UConnNick]

The final four is already sold out.

And surely your not suggesting that the NCAA is interfering by telling referees what to do.

It's about to become unsold out! LOL

 

[oldude]

yup. But be careful what you wish for!

And let's remember that before the game, 538 gave MS an 11% chance of winning. That's one time in ten. I guess Baylor wins the next 9 in a row, huh? What crap.

After ND & Baylor lose, I'm guessing 538 will significantly revise UConn's odds upward.

She's by far the best at throwing jackets though.

I said from the start Baylor was the biggest threat to unseat UConn and I thought they had the 2nd best team in the tournament. Unfortunately they have maybe the 15th best coach.

2 years in a row of #1 seeds dropping like flies before the Final 4. Dare we say parity is creeping into women's bball? Both winners today were #2 seeds so it's not like their double digit seeds Cinderellas, but last year UW and Syracuse were pretty big longshots. The days of penciling in the top 4 teams at the beginning of the season seem to be over.

I try to give someone the benefit of the doubt because I think it's cliche to say someone was out coached but just look at her roster compared to Oregon State and Mississippi State.

Only winning one with BG was a warning sign. The last 2 years she has the PG, the center, the wings, the depth, the athleticism and no Final 4's to show for it. You can't let one player go off for 40 to beat you (basketball Gods don't jinx us tomorrow)

Trying to decide who to "give" the Tournament to next. Maybe it will be Miss State nobody has a chance against. We'll see.

UCONN hasn't won yet they could be upset just like Baylor ... So keep coming at me with your comments cause I will keep coming back!!

 

[Ouremblem]

I'm always frustrated when people act like what we do is SO easy and such a foregone conclusion. Notre Dame and Baylor gone the same day. Real easy, isn't it?

now 74%--or about what they were last year at this time.

Its one of the big reasons what Geno has done is so remarkable. My dad remarked he thought Baylor had just as much talent if not more than we do this year. Nothing is guaranteed.

A real UConn fan would never refer to UCONN as "they".

We Are DOOOMED. Doomed I tell you!! (Must appease the Mojo)

That's a much different discussion than "no body will beat Baylor". So "keep coming back" means coming back with new arguments 'cause the old ones are dis-proven?
