Saturday Sweet 16 games

They've been trading some buckets in the past few minutes, but NC State is gonna need to start getting stops. Wes can sense it and calls TO with about 6 minutes left.
 
And this one is over

But helluva season for NC State. After all they went through and still managed to have success was impressive. I am looking forward to watching them more next year. Wes did a great job.
 
Final: Iowa ends NC State's season, 79-61. Wolfpack finish 28-6....Iowa improves to 29-6.

State loses Leslie and Rogers...we'll have Ealey, Hunter and Cassell back, plus Cunane, Crutchfield and Jones and a top-10 recruiting class. State will be even better next season and maybe pre-season top 10.
 
This was a game NC State will surely want to forget, but huge recognition is owed to their players and coaches for how they persevered through the injuries. So much respect for them. I would really hate to see Wes Moore move to Tennessee because I feel like he's only started doing great things at State. Women's basketball needs emerging programs like State's to continue to emerge.
 
Iowa advances to the Elite 8 for the first time since 1993. That's a long time.

Gustafson, the Paragon of Consistency, with 27 points and 13 rebounds falls just a hair shy of her averages (28 ppg and 13.5 rpg).

This has been a very special team, led by a very special player. 24 assists on 31 made buckets is downright UConn-like. But it's hard for me to see them having much of a shot against Baylor.

Ugh it's painful watching Lobo in the studio have to carry these clowns that are Landers and Fortner.

If Baylor wins today (think they will), I look forward to that match up with Gustafson against the size of Baylor. Very intrigued by that matchup.
 
Those of you at the game, how does the crowd break down? Did South Carolina travel well?

Just don't compare her to Shaq, apparently that's a grievous insult :rolleyes:

And yes she's huge. I remember at the UCLA game last year she made Monique Billings, who is 6'4", look like a midget next to her.
 
Dawn going with a 4-guard lineup hoping to run and score in transition, but obviously giving up a HUGE mismatch on the defensive end. Cliney right now is guarding Cox :eek:
 
I honestly think Baylor size on TV doesn't do them justice. They are much more in person...

I feel kind of bad for Dawn - I just don't think she has the personnel to match Baylor no matter what strategy she tries - she's giving something up no matter what. The only way to take Baylor down is to have two strong post presences that can defend and block and also score on the other end, hassle the bigs into foul trouble, and then beat them with outside shooting, which Baylor's guards aren't especially terrific at. The only teams I think can do that are Oregon and UConn (and Stanford did it earlier this season, but I don't think we'd be able to do it again, especially without Fingall).

Not at game but on Tv looks like better crowd than NC ST Iowa but long away from a sell out.
 
Brown and Cox really play together. Baylor is going to be hard to beat.
 
South Carolina does not appear to be In Baylor’s class, this looks like a mismatch to me.

Little Carolina traveled well.. Obviously nothing like they did in 2015. Alot of Baylor fans are here as well..
 
Did Kim not use any subs in the 1st quarter?

Edit: Looked at box score and apparently she put Ursin in for the last 21 seconds.
