Wilson is a great player but good lord she has the refs in her pocket

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Wilson just clobbered the shooter, no foul called.

That was so obvious!! Announcers even noted the foul!!

 

[DefenseBB]

I still this announcer saying Dawn or Don Staley?

 

[nwhoopfan]

Are South Carolina underdogs in this game? Probably according to Staley they are underdogs every time they take the court, regardless of the opponent.

A'ja has 5 blocks. I have only watched the last 6 minutes of the 4th quarter and the person she is guarding looks to be a foot shorter...only 5, what, did that player only take 5 shots?

She also has 5 turnovers and shot 6 for 15. She did go 7 for 7 at the line, only had 2 fouls called and about 8 that were not. Must be Refs that Dawn approved of that are calling the game.

 

[DefenseBB]

That’s a wrap for the day. No more games. Being a WCBB junkie, why couldn’t they stagger the games instead of starting 3or 4 games at the same time? I mean they are going to show the Semi-finals of the BNP women’s tennis next, like this tournament wouldn’t get better ratings?

 

[Blueballer]

That Nova game made the whole day's viewing worthwhile. Lots of fun. Happy to see them win.

 

[wbball novice]

I didn't see them in their entirety and flipping back and forth between TV and Watch ESPN was confusing. But I certainly enjoyed:
DePaul - Oklahoma, when DePaul went cold and OK started to come back in the second half.
Virginia - California. Outcome in doubt until the end.
Minn. upsets G. Bay.
North Carolina A&T fighting back against an overconfident S. Car.
And, agreeing with Maria Taylor: Villanova - SDSU, game of the day.
And, extras: Harry w/out his comb-over; Natalie Chou getting to play again; Chennedy Carter chanelling Russel Westbrook.

Looking at the final score... looks like A&T put up some resistance. Glad to see they didnt get run out of the building.

 

[MilfordHusky]

the banked in 3 for the tie at the buzzer! WOW!

Shades of Amber Orrange against UConn.

 

[Bayareahusky]

Loved the Villanova game..... and many good performances.... the Marquette player had great game.... I had never before seen her play

 

[LoTrader]

Some high praise for Marie Gulich from the WKU Coach: VIDEO: WKU coach Michelle Clark-Heard (2)

 

[Plebe]

100 points.

Great. Maybe Tennessee should switch to the Big South, maybe they can finish higher than 7th in their conference.

 

[Plebe]

Because conference tournaments are only in existence to make additional revenue, there's no guarantee that the winner will be one of the better teams. So, they could limit the conference tournament to the top 8 teams and do away with the 1 and 2 game byes that a lot of conferences have. Then hopefully only the top teams automatically qualify. However, teams that didn't qualify for the conference tournament can still make the Big Dance as at-large teams, which is every team's goal.

Do conference tournaments in the weaker conferences actually bring in net revenue?

Who would have ever thought that the UVA women would advance, but the UVA men would lose in the first round

I can't believe what I just saw

 

[Orangutan]

I was at work and I thought while glancing at the TV that a Notre Dame player was being helped off the court. I couldn't watch because I was busy. Who was it? Any word?

You and I both know how they feel because we had our teams as 2 seeds lose to 15's.

As part of that fan base, I agree...devastating. Or maybe that’s to mild a description.

I was rooting for a Duke-UVA final...

True, but I'm sure we felt the same as the UVA fans tonight.

 

[triaddukefan]

ESPN is crazy.... I just saw the start time for Sundays games...... South Carolina vs UVA @ 9pm ..... what kinda sense does that crap make
