Wilson looked like the only SC player who really wanted it today
 
SC is big and slow. They are poor defending the perimeter and Kentucky hit their shots. UK was too quick for SC and SC was forced to foul. Big stat for UK very few turnovers. SC just couldn't make shots and was a step to slow. The lack of outside shooters and ball handlers hurt SC. UCONN ND SC MD top 4 this week. Tenn Baylor follow. UK should move up into the top 10. It will be interesting next weekend when conference tourneys begin.

SC is shooting 50% on fits... Kills the scoring and morale.... And if not SC who at # 2? Maryland? Norte Dame?

I would think ND moves up to #2 tomorrow and Maryland moves to #3. SC drops to #4 with Tennessee #5.

After than who knows - Baylor with 2 straight loses and Louisville going down today. Florida State could jump up to #6.
 
Understandable now on Social Media we hear from the Lady Vols fans that they are Co SEC Champs when they couldn't do the job themselves :)

...............mmmmhhhhhmmmm.........
 
SC had the benefit of having a fairly easy schedule after UCONN's loss. they are not the second best team and they certainly were never the best team in the country. the fact that they got to sit at #1 for as long as they did was ridiculous. they are big, slow, and can't shoot from beyond 10 feet. yes, the lady vols lost to them, while severely undermanned, but i still believe they are overrated.

i will take a shared SEC title with SC in a year that all everyone wanted to talk about is dawn staley and SC. holly warlick just earned her 3rd title in 3 years. pretty good for a coach who can't coach. now....on to march...where the results really make history. :)

Matthew Mitchell dresses well and his GQ haircut --well, it is similar to John Dillinger's now that I think about it--is very seductive.

With about 2 minutes remaining superstar coach Staley turned and looked over her shoulder and began shouting to someone. She was very angry!

Viewing the postgame coaches handshake supergalaxy coach Staley wanted nothing to do with the well mannered Mitchell. Oh well.

You oughta watch the "Matthew Mitchell Show" which airs every week and usually includes him doing something strange like dancing or wearing flashing sunglasses while playing guitar. Every time I see it I keep trying to picture Geno in his place.
 
If the officials called a few fouls on SC offensive rebounding, like they will in the tournament, that game would have been a bigger blowout. Notre Dame will beat them by 10+ if they get to the final four, their guards are much better then SC's guards. Which will give Stewie another chance to give sour puss a headache.

Let me add SC does not have good ball handlers, and doesn't guard the perimeter on defense. They depend on their unathletic height much like MD. IMO the top teams in order are UConn ND SC and its a toss up between Baylor MD Tenn

Mitchell took a timeout with about 15 seconds to go to get the seniors out. Staley was irate and yelled 'That's BS!'.

There was a point during the game where the crowd was "somewhat" quite and you could literally hear Staley screaming at the top of her lungs like a crazy woman. The announcers completely ignored it - I was hoping they were going to explain why Staley was literally going bananas. She may be passionate and intense, but if she really did that, she's classless as well as clueless.
 
This is the frustrating thing for KY fans..... you never know when they are going to come to play...... and with a starter out with that nasty knee injury few weeks ago (Thompson) they could have packed it in..... they didn't Congrats to them.....

Love watching Wilson for SC..... she is athletic..... repeat she is athletic!!!!

That's just poor situational awareness. Me thinks she's gotten into an "all about me," grove/rut.

I had no idea why the TO was called either. I was focused on the potential upset and whether Kentucky was going to blow their lead. By several accounts, Staley's attitude changed once she was aware of the situation.

When did her attitude change, after they left the court? Because she looked pretty pissed at Mitchell during the handshake.
 
I watched 4 games today and the refs sucked in every one! As ya'll know I'm not a fan of Elizabeth Williams at all but she got screwed on two calls early in the NoCar game that even the announcers said were bogus! How do these incompetents get rehired year after year! They make $600 to $800 a game & have no freaking clue what they're doing! remarkable! Someone please tell me how you have a no touch rule and you can lower your shoulder and run a player over and no foul is called?
 
Please, don't start this. In 2004, the entire US Summer Olympic team voted to designate Dawn Staley flagbearer for the team. That's not just basketball players, but the whole team, boxers, divers, equestrians, decathletes, the whole works. Do you truly believe that this assemblage of America's finest athletes would choose a classless individual to represent them, and by extension all America? I don't believe that for a second. Dawn Staley is not "classless".

I don't see how you can claim Kentucky "hit their shots", when they made 19-60 from the field and 2-13 from 3 and 2 sentences later claim SC "could't make shots" when they were 20-62 and 6-22 from 3. This game perfectly illustrated what I've claimed about the SEC all year long... every team in the SEC is offensively challenged. There are a few that play good defense, but none play good offense.

In 2004... How on earth did we get all the way back to 2004.

I rewatched the UConn-SCar game with sound (I often mute) recently. I was struck by the screeching heard in the background at times that I believe came from the SCar bench. But I don't think it was DS - maybe an assistant? Anybody else notice?
