Find some defense, get a few players to step up and let them score when needed, get a couple more players involved in letting the 3's rain down seems like a is a sensible approach to advance in the tourney. They've had a few elements come together at just the right time. I feel confident it all ends once they hit that UConn brick wall. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuscaloosaTiger 289 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 I'm not so sure. UA is a difficult match up for UConn because of their 3-point shooting, which largely neutralizes their shot-blocking big man. If UA is on point, then the first team to 110 may be the victor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That having been said, there's always a chance. Auburn NIL can beat G League money. Not sure about European league.

I feel confident it all ends once they hit that UConn brick wall. 😄 Well, since we're doing the IF game, if UNCs leading scorer and best 3 pt shooter goes just a little better than 4 for 20 in the uat game, a lot of people that base AUs season on what uat does would be much happier. In a 3 game series, bama is toast. In a 40 minute game against an opponent you haven't played before, anything can happen. UConn has been the best team in the nation, IMO. Rarely does the best team win this tournament. Edited April 2 by JuscAUse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These Iowa girls don’t hustle very well. They run pretty good stuff and of course Clark is a baller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t know why LSU didn’t double her soon as she crossed half court. My defense would have been any body but her. Her team screwed her on several assist. Didn’t finish well at the rim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be an interesting final four. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They play the same 4 quarters now in lacrosse, which used to be halves. The NCAA must believe women sports need more rest now than in the past with all the weak guys currently playing women's sports. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we got Cooper we were still short on guards that could handle the ball. If Oates recruited the way we do then he wouldn't have signed Mark. He would have said we have a guard..... And then they wouldn't be where they are now. They may not would even have made the tournament. Then the next we signed 3 or 4 guards from small schools a couple of years after that.... You have to evaluate and know what you are seeing. I saw Mark play Cooper head to head and outplayed him their senior year.... That's the thing you look at. So now you have your 5 star and you also know you have a diamond in the rough because you did your diligence. I'm sure Auburn had coaches watching that game. Sat down and had a convo with Mark's dad. Pearl told them that they really liked him but didn't have any room for him. Another one of Auburn coaches made a joke asking him if he could grow 2 or 3 inches over the summer then maybe could use him.

WillMunny 1,384 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 (edited) Watching this women's game. Good game. Go SC. Also been watching the G-League.

GTNupe11 2,038 Posted April 6 Author Share Posted April 6 SC ran some good offense! Have a whole team of scorers. I think whoever makes it to them in the Championship game will have a problem on their hands. Looking forward to watching this next one though! I'm thinking UConn comes out with the W.
