Improved rebounding and defense is the main reason they are doing better this season. So far this season they are allowing 65.5 points per game vs 71.8 last season. The improved rebounding is giving them more second chance baskets and their opponents less than last season. Their field goal percentage and 3 point percentage so far are actually a little lower than last season.

True, she's very talented just need to dominate more when she's on the floor. I think she's too nice against strong teams with MEAN bigs.
Clark still does damage in any conference 🤷♂️
They need to let 13 play more
Iowa was getting killed on the defensive boards. That could be a problem….

They were playing without their best rebounder and actually ended up with 37 rebounds (26 defensive) vs Wisconsin's 35 rebounds (23 defensive). They were struggling at times with Williams who had 14 rebounds though.
i dont see anybody beating iowa in the big 10.
I don't care if you shoot 50 shots a game if you make 48 percent from the field and can rip opponent's hearts out with logo threes
I have watched the first quarter...If i wanted to watch big women pound on each other, I'll lookup WWF.
The big 10 is such a weak conference honestly

@@90sHilly the PAC 12 is the only super strong conference though. The other power 5 conferences have all been pretty much dominated by a couple teams unlike the PAC which has at least 4 championship contenders
Clark is a hell of a player, but they call a lot of fouls against the other team when they do not even touch her, plus she if you watch replays, Clark kicks her leg out a lot which should be an off foul but never called, Clark is good enough player without the refs help, plus all that foul shooting take away from the game, just my opinion.

LOL good one. Usually the touchy fouls are make up calls because they know they missed a couple. Refs actually could call a lot more fouls than they do. And you see all the defensive players flopping on contact, trying to get cheap fouls on her. The refs were so unfair AGAINST her in the championship game that they investigated and released a statement, apologizing. Clark and Iowa got robbed.... two best players were taken out by bad calls
