South Carolina has been so good at taking games over in the 3rd quarter.

South Carolina has been so good at taking games over in the 3rd quarter.

That was so methodical. I hate them.

Let's just move on to the highly anticipated showdown coming up. 

[Thin Red Swine]

I'd seriously watch just a one-on-one Bueckers-Clark for at least 20 minutes of this game.

[Lurk]

We are some beat down basketball fans. The only talk about the tournament are the women's game.

Iowa is so fucked.

I saw this coming a mile away.

Iowa is so fucked.

I saw this coming a mile away.

Caitlyn and the Clarkettes are struggling.

Nope. They just need to keep working the inside out game.

Stuelke could be a difference here.

Neither of these teams are beating South Carolina, so they should leave everything on the court tonight.

Uniforms included.

I'd add Clark and Martin to UConn and take my chances.

That team could stay within 10.

[Thin Red Swine]

Changing my mind. I wouldn't add Clark tonight. She's playing awful.

They could be fucked after all.

But Geno is positively glowing in his 8-month preggo smedium pullover.

[Show-Me Hog]

They are guarding Clark incredibly. And she's pressing.

[buff2.0]

That court vision or whatever ESPN calls it is so slick.  Edit: The all chick analysis crew that ESPN has put together has been top notch for the whole tournament.

UCONN is making the rest of Iowa beat them, and it's working.  Iowa is going to have to pick up the pace and try to get UCONN players tired and/or in foul trouble.

Yeah, Niko Muhl is fierce.

She's also a good basketball player.

But I digress. There was never a doubt that Iowa would be outclassed athletically. They were against LSU too. Clark is just ice cold and won't just drive for short shots, which she has been really effective at getting. And unfortunately, they don't seem to have plays to set her up for shorter distance looks for three.

If she'd stop the 30 footers, which clearly aren't falling, they might have a chance.

[Thin Red Swine]

Iowa starting to mix it up. Clark just needs to follow the adjusted game plan. She looked great with that three off the double screen. 

[buff2.0]

Unreal shot

[Thin Red Swine]

Iowa getting some favorable calls.

No way that ball was off Bueckers. The slow motion showed it more clearly.

[buff2.0]

Refs doing work. They know Iowa is the year's darling team

What that slo mo replay didn't show was that Bueckers had already dribbled it out of bounds on the line.

[buff2.0]

UConn likes to do this thing where they go several possessions in a row without Paige touching the ball. That might bite them in the 4th.
