- I believe she has another year at Iowa. If that’s the case, she deserves a nice NIL deal. Her contribution to the women’s game is off the chart. She literally beat a 36-0 team with her will and insane talent. Simply a legendary performance.

Cooke is to Clark coach really gives her a special green light
That Clark + Czinano partnership is lethal. Can't wait to watch the finals!
South Carolina didn’t make adjustments at halftime. Iowa ran the same pick and roll, and they was never close to stopping it. Also they ran most of their sets off the right side, they never tried to make them go left.
These may seem small but Iowa's Martin 7, Warnock 5, Staulke 2, O'Grady 4 n Marshall playing great defense is what won the game. Not really big fancy numbers individually but added up with Clark 41 n Czinano 18 they made the difference. Sometimes multiple roll players doin little to nothing can end up big n to something that was Iowa in this game. So many players doin nothing big but combined they did something huge.

I agree. Iowa is a hard nosed team, but Caitlin Clark needs a little more help in order to get the Championship. The transfer portal is definitely going to shape womens basketball. That's why Geno is so pissed. He no longer has the best players. Transfers are eligible immediately.
No lie this was a good play it had them so confused the last few mins. That's how you close out a game I love it.
I've been watching basketball since the 70s... Dawn Staley was my favorite female player in the college ranks, she reminded me of Isaiah Thomas! Caitlin Clark plays like Caitlin Clark, another great would be Taurasi! I don't know if the guys commenting actually watch her games or just highlights, but she is must watch TV! CC and Czinano are their top scorers, I'm sure South Carolina thought that their length was the key to win... the didn't account for the will of Caitlin Clark! I honestly hope they win it all because LSU really struggles to maintain consistency for the entire game!
The pick and roll literally beat them the whole game and the back door was always opened
It really sucks that Iowa has to play against seven players at time. The referees are biased and bad. Why even have them with the technology we have, unless you want to cheat!
Listen Cooke is so FN good she is tough and has all of the tools you can tell that she grew up playing with her male cousins, brothers and friends! With that said Clark is a whole different animal wow there is zero reason a thin none athletic player should have the rough & toughness of this young lady her skill set and feel for the game of basketball is extraordinary she absolutely has ice water in her veins! She is Diana Taurasi on steroids! She is not just the best female player in the Nation she is probably the best colligate player in the Nation period!!

@@sugarqueen8332 ... Clark was on her right - Now you could argue she wanted to lean into Clark to get a foul. But we see it later in the game. The main point was her celebrating and not getting back on D, her 2 gained quickly turning into 3 lost - SC thought they would win instead of playing to earn the win.

Genuine question here: are you (technically) allowed to extend your arm and essential hold the defender away from you while driving to the basket?
Great game!
I thought that was Manu Ginobili with layups and quick release beyond the arch for Iowa
Those freakn pick and rolls bro smh
It's such a shame that Boston and Beal didn't show up.
Omg Caitlyn Clark 3 good at basketball 😢
Was a mismatch!! Caitlin DESTROYED South Carolina by herself!! Best player in college, and it isn't even close!! Good luck to Iowa in the championship game against LSU.
Women's basketball seems to have gotten much better since the last time 8-10 years I even bothered to watch clips or even a game. Cooke and Clarke can actually dribble quite well and attack the rim. unlike what it used to be with them fumbling the ball all over the place long ago.
In 10 years or so later, when typing 2023 ncaa in your browser, it should automatically show caitlin clark
Typical woke ESPN. The “show” was Caitlin, that’s it.
Clark !!
The women’s game minus the athleticism is getting to the point the NBA got to where bigs get played off the court SC 6’7 girl was a major liability on defense
I can't remember if it was Wernoack That Caitlin kicked it back to when she drove into the lane and the defense collapsed on Clark , the kickout to the 3 point shooter , all net , so huge late in the 4th , South Carolina was tremendous, but under absolute attack for the entire game I posted on a South Carolina thread and mentioned that the paint would be attacked by Iowa, it stood to reason, spread them out , pick them apart with Iowa pick n rolls I was mocked by a few internet experts , It seemed obvious to me, The likeness of the modern women's game reminds me so much of 70s 80s NBA and NCAA men's game of that era Hat's off to all the ladies and teams of the tournament, Hat's off to the reffs and the NCAA for letting them play physical and aggressive, that's basketball in my view, One comment, shame on South Carolinas coach for being tacky and whining after the game, absolutely disgraceful, the players worked their butts off , quit trying to make it about you coach, That's why the WNBA and women's soccer have been abysmal in ratings, Enough is enough
