This is the best defensive game we’ve played this year so far I think.

We aren’t usually this physical. This is the game Missouri has imposed.

I give them credit for it and it can’t do anything but help South Carolina’s toughness.

Game is as it should be. Loser is out of the sec race.

These refs are killing Missouri. Only Missouri players are ejected after the little skirmish, so unfair. There were South Carolina players doing most of the pushing and off the bench and they didn't get in trouble. These refs suck.

Ho hum. If for 5 mins. you look at this game purely as a Missouri homer you'd see SoCar just as over aggressive while committing just as many uncalled fouls. Again, I'm just one who thinks complaining about the referee's is silly. As does Geno. These days anyway

Hopefully Lou's eyes get spared in that game.
 
Missouri is going to lose this game I think. What puzzles me is how can the game be this close without a forward that's a threat inside? Without being able to beat SoCar off the dribble? With A'ja committing so few fouls?
 
Mizzou fumbling away any chance with poor ball protection.

Glad SC will pull this out. More fun when they are coming off a positive result. Still this game should provide lots of good scout information.

That's true. It will be interesting to see if all the emotion of this game has a carryover.
 
Shouldn't ask for this as it might happen and then who knows what would happen.

Mizzou is a physical team and is slow afoot. Have to think if this UConn team can rebound with them, they would score plenty of transition baskets.

the fight at the end of the first half is on the refs IMO.

I agree. Problem with officiating is not so much a bad call here or there, home bias here or there. The problem with the officials is that they allow an overly unnecessary physical game. There is no freedom of movement in this game. A lot of the beauty of the finesse game is taken away by this type of officiating. UConn will have a hard time in this style of officiated game, no matter who the competition is.

Just heard the lopsided FT statistics.
 
Missouri loses its second in a row, in the middle of its tough patch of the SEC schedule where they play at Georgia (loss), at South Carolina (loss), and at home vs. Mississippi State this coming Thursday.

But Mizzou has definitely earned respect going blow-for-blow with South Carolina in the two Columbias.

If anyone is watching this game you gotta be disappointed in officiating. Im sorry to our South Carolina fans on this board but the amount of no calls for Missouri in the second half was ridiculous. They were getting hacked and pushed every time they went in the lane. I was watching and with a non biased eye. I mean come on......

Disagree. Lots of no calls both ways. If they call a tight game Missouri would have fouled out their entire interior.

They got the game they want and have to play and it wasn’t good enough on the road against a much tougher than last time South Carolina group.

Cunningham’s dirty tell is walking off and tugging on the pony tail.

She got off a final shove there on Wilson after her final shot.

I think it was entertaining and tough game. Missouri deserves respect.
 
The crowd definitely contributed to the chippyness due to prior bad blood. I don’t think the hostility will be nearly as bad on Thurs as Geno and Dawn get along, they still want to win but will not ignite the crowd. I wonder if Dawn will be on her best behavior with him around. Her angst and anguished theatrics are getting a tad insightful as if her and her team are being persecuted.

UConn doesn’t play like mizzou. Should be no issues.
 
I hope the season finale between Duke and UNC.Cheat is a chippy as this game was..... especially since I'll be in the stands... probably sitting next to some Tarhole fans ..... . we need some of this in the ACC :cool:

again... dont Judge me :mad:
 
Are the press conferences up yet? I dont normally look at them..... but I'm interesting in what the coaches and players have to say after this game.

No, there isn't bad blood between USC and UCONN like we have with Mizzou and Kentucky.

How long does your avatar have to wear the bag of shame? Until they avenge the loss in Chapel Hill?

Disagree, Officiating definitely favored South Carolina!

Dawn need to get her team under control. Geno and CD will not have that Thursday. I will hate to see Dawn become Muffet McGraw. The officials need to get a hold of this game.

UConn/SC is not nearly the same as SC/Mizzou... tonight has no bearing on what UConn will face on Thursday. There is hardly any vitriol for UConn in Columbia outside of the fact that they win a lot. You hate the winners but you don't want to punch them in the face. SC wanted to punch Mizzou in the face, and vice versa.
