Stanford vs. South Carolina Game Thread

[TitleTown]

We beat them by 11 last month when they had Coates and Kia barely played when she hurt her ankle and Lou was pretty invisible.

We need to win tonight first.

So, Dawn had a better half time adjustment than Tara?

 

[Nuyoika]

I'm pretty sure I said first to 60 wins...

 

[JellyBean]

Man. South Carolina could not hit the side of the house with a rock in that 1st half came out in the 2nd half making shots and stunned Stanford on the defensive side. Well done.

62-53 South Carolina final

 

[homer the dog]

My experie nce is that! Bigs get no protection

How the hell does Wilson get that call? LOL

Amazing ain't it

 

[Blueballer]

Wilson's father keep making gestures like his daughter got elbowed in the eye. Everytime I look at that replay it looks like she hit herself in the eye.

 

[Linart]

Poor Karlie. What a sad way to end your college career.

There is no adjustment for losing a senior leader unfortunately.

 

[BigBird]

Huskies v. MSU game thread is open...

Yep. For those that say Dawn can't coach. Well she out coached a lady that has over 800 wins.

 

[Ctpaul0825]

Congratulations to USC and Aja Wilson was a star in this game.

 

[mntncougar]

I'm hoping Lou takes this as incentive tonight so she can get back for her sister on Monday.

SC can be all excited but if they don't play better than this Sunday they're gonna get "smoked".

Depends on whistles or lack thereof,is this guy announcer a gender hire

 

[GiladKatzDeli]

That's 2 hours of my life I'll never get back - probably the most boring game I've seen in recent memory. The announcers are talking about South Carolina like that was some kind of masterful performance. It wasn't. That looked like 2 teams that were trying not to lose..

She didn't outcoach anybody. Stanford lost one it's best players.
Don't think SC defense had much to do with all those missed open shots by Stanford.

 

[augustaTC]

SC? The team we've beaten every year for the last three years by an average of 20+ points who is also down one of their starting bigs and has not so great guard play? That SC?

The one that just beat Stanford, yeah, that one.

She outcoached Samuels ankle and got favorable whistles for wilson

 

[HoopsFan21]

As I said above, we just beat them by 11 when they had Coates and we had no Kia and Lou was a no-show. Sorry I'm not going to panic. Let Wilson get 30 and put a healthy Kia and Gabby on the guards/forwards and Lou with her long arms in the passing lanes.

They are paid to whip up attention

Samuelson out means no room for shooters

Good Win by So Carolina Tara has the right game plan and for the most part controlled A'ja Wilson, except for her rebounding. Stanford couldn't buy a shot in the 2nd half and then So Carolina guards started to create their own shots going to the basket and Stanford had no Answer. If Karlie's not injured and able to hit some 3 point shots Stanford probably wins the game. So Carolina's quick guards made the difference and Stanford had no answers in 2nd half.

No doubt Dawn went to a zone and took Stanford out of their rhythm and when we went back to man they were completely lost. Dawn won the coaching battle tonight but SC absolutely has to play better Sunday or they will get blown out.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Tough ending for Karlie, but it was her second Final Four.

Lou will be playing for her teammates AND her family.

She won the injury battle, wilson won the whistle battle
