Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 4587758, member: 12088"] I don’t think the odds are all that good for an Iowa win. But I disagree that SC has a speed advantage. The only “slow” player on the Iowa roster is O’Grady. Caitlin is as quick as anyone SC has, maybe quicker. Same for Marshall and Martin, and Stuelke is surprisingly quick. I doubt Beal could keep up with Caitlin. Of course, they give up a lot in front court height, but Czinano is very strong. Maybe not strong enough to hold off Boston, but she’s not easy to push around. So it will be the usual mismatch. Iowa will torch them from the perimeter. But SC’s paint points and rebounding advantage will be too much for Iowa to overcome. I’d look for SC to try to slow the game down and for Iowa to take every opportunity to run. [/QUOTE]
