Sunday (3/24) games: NCAA 2nd round

It’s 45-42 So Carolina half way through the 3rd quarter
 
Marquette goes on a run early in 3Q, takes a 9-point lead over A&M. King, Hiedeman and Lott are playing very well.

Marquette looked completely moribund for 3-1/2 quarters vs. Rice. They have suddenly come to life.
 
Nice little feature during halftime w/ Megan Gustafson giving a quick tour of Port Wing, Wisconsin, her home town. I grew up in a very small town, so I can identify with a place like that.
 
So Carolina has coughed up a 9 point lead, now is up by one and it’s offense looks stagnant. Everyone just stopped moving
 
I’m watching. I have no rooting interest, either

Now that I live in Florida, I get to see all the games with Florida teams

Oh wow. I saw you were mentioning being in Florida but I thought it was a vacation. Did you move down for work? At any rate best of luck in the sunshine state! LOTS of basketball and other sports going on down there!

My oldest son now lives in Michigan and my youngest is about to graduate and is planning to live in North Carolina. Our house is now too big and we’re paying a lot in taxes to shovel snow and live in cold, grey weather. Easy decision

Switched to A&M-Marquette at the beginning of 3Q, when it was close. Kind of a duel between Chennedy Carter and Natisha Hiedeman, with Marquette currently making space, and oops the feed froze .... Comcast reloading.
 
Usually basketball is a game of runs, this FSU-So Carolina game has runs of offensive ineptitude

USCe now up50-46
 
Iowa / Missouri has a roller derby feel. Last team standing literally.
 
USCe up 52-51 at the end of the 3rd quarter. This one could go down to the wire

Teams are pretty darned evenly matched. A few runs back and forth but neither team has led by more than 5 or 7 I think?
 
That was a really bad call on that offensive foul against Iowa. The player was in the air and almost landed when the defender moved into her path. Not even remotely close to having established position. Really blew that one.

After a TO, So Carolina came out and just stood in place while Cuevas-Moore tried to fine someone to pass to. Shot clock violation.

Still 52-51 after 2 minutes
 
Sophie ineffective. Only Amber Smith looks dangerous for Missouri, 47-41 Iowa after 3
 
This is gonna be tough to choose. Both of the 4/5 games look like they going to end about the same time.

They've been face guarding her a lot. Very smart choice. Other offensive options are limited.

Both teams are playing horrible. FSU players scared to shoot, don't even look at the rim to shoot jump shots. SC can sit in a zone the rest of the game and dare them to shoot.
 
I gues C. Carter's thumb injury isn't bothering her too much!

Any neutral observers watching the USCe FSU game?

I see the FSU fan that brought me a cookie and a scone at the ACC tournament in the stands. Her and her husband are diehard Nole fans... always great to see that.
 
FSU has turned into the Gang That Couldn’t Shoot Straight. They’ve missed a tremendous number of layups

Still it’s only a two point lead for USCe
 
What a mess of a game this is. Nobody is running offense, Cuevas Moore has moments where she’s playing like her hair is on fire, missed bunnies and turnovers galore

Score is tied at 60 with 2:30 left in the game

Two blown FSU layups there to take the lead. Gillespie needs to be stronger around the rim instead of going with the finesse

Announcers are right. Lots of tired players out there.
 
Gustafson has a double double of course. She's not quite on pace to hit her scoring average (18 currently) but Meyer and Doyle are both chipping in. Those 3 have accounted for almost all of their scoring.
 
Great, they switched me to what sounds like a really uninspiring game in Charlotte.
