ND-Ohio St up first. If Ohio St wins it will be their first E8 game in 24 years.

Not really a good crowd on hand I'm positive gamecock fans would have filled the place up but whatever

The SC athletic dept. should have encouraged nearby cities in the state to BID to host regionals the day Wilson signed with you. Greeneville?

To me this is where it's money our mouth time to see if a school really supports women's basketball or not. UConn bid for the 1995 regionals the year after making the Final Four in 1991 and Lobo signing that summer. We may not have made the Final 4 in 1995 had we played UVA on a neutral court.

Certainly doesn't help the KY men playing in the men's tournament tonight.

ND has zero post presence and OSU is happy with one pass and an outside shot early in the clock?

Washington on fire early from 3. Does Miss State really have enough offense to compete?

After a rough first five minutes, this has actually turned into a good game, 25-24 OSU end 1st

It's coaching malpractice for teams as good offensively as OSU and ND to be this bad defensively. Keeps them from being great.

Maybe not the prettiest basketball you'll see, but entertaining in the last few minutes for sure.

If you like watching basketballs go through the hoop, then Ohio State-Notre Dame is your game. I haven't seen any evidence yet that either of these teams can guard the other—first one to 100 wins?

Worth keeping an eye on: Mavunga came in a few minutes ago for her first action in a month and a half. If she's effective, it could spell trouble for Turner-less Notre Dame.

Muffet >> McGuff. I think ND's defense will eventually settle in.

Washington up 7. SEC teams won't get far in the tourney until they learn to score points. It's been almost ten years since the SEC won a national championship.

And I think their only Final 4 team since 2008 was South Carolina in 2015.

I think OSU needed to come out fast to put the pressure on, but ND already has the lead. Can't see Buckeyes stopping the Irish.

Yeah I think this one is over. McGuff isn't the type of coach that will be able to out-adjust Muffet at half.
