WBB: General All-NCAA Thread - Not Team Cyclones Stuff

[clonedude]

We will see. SC is not as skilled, but has superior depth. SC isn't going to wear out. They can do line changes. Boston sat most of the half.

Agree with you.

We will see if Iowa can keep this up or not? I hope not.

SC has to like where they are for sure. No Boston at all basically, and down 1. Where would Iowa be if they sat Clark the entire 1st half?

Iowa is more talented though. But I’m hoping that SC just wears them out.

Mulkey on the halftime set, "why am I here. "

Iowa played about as well as they could have hoped for against the #1 team and SC sat their best player for an entire quarter and is only down 1.

Iowa has to keep speeding the game up and someone other than Clark is going to have to hit some 3s. SC has to rebound everything and continue to play physical defense. They gotta figure out something on the pick and roll too because they are bad. I might drop another defender off the shooter Iowa has in the corner and make them make a couple 3s before sticking with them. Might keep Clark out of the lane or the roll from getting a wide open layup.

Iowa only managed 12 rebounds with Boston sitting most of the half.

SC bench outscoring Iowa19-2.

Not sure why they don’t go with a 3/2 zone with their height and size.

Iowa only with 4 3-pt makes. I figured they would need at least 16 like they did vs Louisville to win this. They still might need them, but if SC defense doesn't tighten up, they might not.

Yeah Iowa's just out-scheming them.

You'd think SC would have talked about actually defending at halftime instead of just 'being tall' but looks like they just sort of...didn't.

 

[trevn]

Not sure the refs have figured out how they want to call this game.

 

[ISU_Guy]

Watching South Carolina is like watching a tall high school girls team. How are they undefeated?

 

[mynameisjonas]

Iowa is -1.5 right now

 

[madguy30]

I'll guess Iowa wins this by 10ish unless SC can defend.

 

[ClonerJams]

Iowa will probably win if SC cant hit a 3. Caitlins brother is on the ISU football team, so I'm happy for him that he gets to see his sister have all this success.

They are truly awful defending the pick and roll. They are huge but terrible at defending in space.

 

[GT25Ump]

C'MON GAMECOCKS!!!! Hang in there!

There's a reason it's still used but looking that inept at defending it for the FF is a new angle.

 

[simply1]

Wow Johnson made one

 

[BoxsterCy]

Would have thought Iowa would need to be smoking from three to be in this but they are not smoking from three and still in it.

 

[mynameisjonas]

This has been an extremely fun game to watch.

They're going under and around SC and making them look silly.

 

[ISU_Guy]

SC should be ashamed of themselves. out hustled, out coached, they are not defending a pick and roll anywhere close, gave up several layups in transition and turning the ball over like crazy. I am surprised they are not down 15 honestly.
