Iowa played as inspired as they've played all season (and I do think that the jersey retirement had a lot to do with it), but the lack of coaching by Lindsay Gottlieb (especially in that 4th quarter) needs to be mentioned. If JuJu wasn't from LA, Gottlieb would be back coaching at UCSB by now.

Hope this gets the fanbase off the coach and team's back for a while. Yes the team has struggled but man, some of the comments I've read on the Iowa board were surprising to me. Thought there would be a bit more patience for the squad while they figured things out.

This really was an entertaining game. Iowa gets out to a shocking 18-1 1st period lead only to have USC grab halftime lead at 29-28.
Trojans continue rally by going up by 6 late in the 3rd, but Hawks go up by one on buzzer beater end of quarter. USC ties it at 53 on Avery Howell 3 at the 9:19 mark but Lucy Olsen gives Iowa the lead for good 27 seconds later. 1-2 possession game the rest of the way until the very end.

Here's some posts from an independent analyst:

I'm assuming this is based on being at the game. I don't know much about the history between NC State and Clemson to say anything otherwise.
Clemson has no noteworthy women's basketball history to speak of. I know of nothing special between the two in that respect.

The programs do have a rivalry in football (the textile bowl) and somewhat a general rivalry as ACC founding members and geographically adjacent land grants.

Appreciate the insight provided. Updating my handbook accordingly to keep up. ;)
