the brand of basketball played in the women's tournament all throughout for me was much more enjoyable than the men's tournie or the pros (dunks and threes punctuated by spectacular passing and driving to rim occasionally). The women are passing, rebounding, stepping back off the glass and more and that all has happened in the last few years. The equity is amazing. I'm amazed at how much alexis morris, hailey van lith, jacy sheldon, caitlin clark all remind me a lot of kelsey plum's playing now. Plum went thru a real crisis that was in part about her identity as a player and the 3x3 olympics really really changed the way she plays. Somehow that style of guard play is now much more prevalent now. as monica czinano said in the post game interview: "strap in". C Clark mentioned a cool possibility: a seven game final series.
i agree no more is really was the most enjoyable game i ever seen this season , while it my first NCCA game to watch i dont watch NBA any more due is lost the charm that has it before
Go get Trump's bail money Cornball.... she's the Eminem of College basketball... slightly above average for her appearance. She will not return to the Championship game next year.
Clark said herself “Monika doesn’t get the credit she deserves” Monika Czinano was painfully undervalued this season. She is an INCREDIBLE player. Objectively one of the most well rounded player on Iowa, contributing on both ends of the floor.
Couldn't agree more. She was such a consistent presence in every game I watched, and Clark doesn't get the assist numbers without Czinano running the floor hard and finishing tough.
This final four was one for the ages- some of the most exciting basketball I have ever seen at any level! Congratulations to all of these young women from all of these teams!
Refs were terrible. This the 1st women's game I ever watched really wanna to see caitlin in action, All the highlights had me anxious but the refs would never let Iowa play. They called tricky tacky bullcrap everything they cut it to single digits
@@JocTillery I was excited to see both teams play and the refs called it equally bad on both sides. Hate it for Caitlin but definitely not the reason they lost 😞! LSU just outplayed them
Iowa did not guard the perimeter versus South Carolina so they boxed in for defending the interior. LSU said they would expose Iowa not respecting guard play on the perimeter. Iowa sure paid for it.
SEC SEC SEC!!???? The lady cocks.......😮when they played Iowa did.not do anything from perimeter. Iowa used that all game long............ LSU went at it differently. Coach KM was like you gals better shoot that ball like a ring depends on it. They did. This US Army veteran salutes you, Carson, J. With that Sideshow Bob hairstyle and all, I was so proud of you. By far your beat performance and ya know what, y believed in you! Geaux SEC! SEC SEC SEC
You’re no LSU fan, somebody has to lose and no true fan is feeling hurt that the other team lost, stop it. You’re an Iowa fan trying to soothe your wounds, just accept it and better luck next time.
This is preposterous. I can't believe these athletes have to take questions from fking reporters? They don't even get paid. I wouldn't take any questions whatsoever. Just insane. Especially after a fking loss. Pro athletes, do it, part of their contract, but not colelge

Caitlin will be a superstar in the future, ill be real only reason I tuned into todays game lol cause of the hype around her, wanted to watch it for myself. Shes definitely the real deal , LSU were great too and deserved winners..very fun game! People taking the trash talk at the end way too seriously though lol, Both Reese and Clark talk trash im sure one will get the other again in the WNBA!
As an LSU fan, I don’t watch women's basketball, but I started to be a Caitlin Clark fan when I first heard of her when Iowa played against South Carolina in the final four. I’m very proud of her and her team
Go get Trump's bail money Cornball.... she's the Eminem of College basketball... slightly above average for her appearance. She will not return to the Championship game next year.
Caitlin Clark is the real deal. She’s the reason why people were tuned in today. Last female game I saw was in 2008. I saw two of her games this tournament run when my son told me about her. She is phenomenal. And I want to apologize for all the down talking I did about women’s basketball. She is one of a kind. Not even generational, she’s more than that. One of a kind.
Collegiate sports has turned me to schools & people I never knew JSU -Jackson State University & especially athletes - Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese. You all DOMINATE 🏀🏀 let the TEARS represent the transformation you all have impacted on so many people, young & old. Heads up be proud of what you've done! 💯
Caitlin, you are a great player and a great role inspiration for the young kids of Iowa,Minnesota and Wisconsin and all over the world you are a great human being, Your parents raised a great , and beautiful woman, congratulation you are a champion🎉

As someone who grew up with all brothers, joined the Marines, an Iowa farmer, and a dad of 2 young girls, I will say these girls have had an enormous impact on me. They have shown me what a strong, competitive, and elite woman looks like today and what I should expect and lead my girls to be. Outside of rare moments in combat, I have never seen such great leadership as these 2 ladies have shown our small family in rural NW Iowa. We are beyond proud that you represent us. With Love and admiration, -Iowa Farmer, Girl Dad.
After reading about their S-Carolina game, I made it a point to watch them today and I'm so glad I did. Heart and fight set them apart for sure.. wonderful young ladies.
Caitlin is one of the main reasons I watched the national title game. She is an incredible shooter, and I wish her nothing but the best. Keep fighting baby girl. Keep your head up ok.
Superior mental toughness, the will to believe they can fight back against adversity will take them to the highest of heights!!! I love what Caitlin says “you never hang your head you come out and keep fighting” Very motivational so proud of you women keep on keeping on!!! Much love ❤
I don't even watch basketball and just watching Clark's highlights of the last 2 games gave me joy, she is gonna go far if she chooses to play professional basketball
She got sent home now all the racists mad she got taunted they was talking crazy like she just shot good they sent her back home so she needa get back Ina kitchen and cook unseasoned food💀
Y’all don’t support professional women’s basketball. She’ll become an afterthought like the majority of march madness greats no matter how good she plays professionally.
She’s a hooper but there was never a moment when I thought Iowa was gonna beat LSU, the tigers wanted it way more you could see from the beginning of their season !
They were not the underdog this game and they had a worst record than LSU but was a higher seed..so they didn't have anymore adversity and doubt than LSU.
This hurts as an Iowa Fan... After losing in the Sweet 16 last year... This was huge for us. I'm so glad we Found a way to the championship game... but we'll be back. Congrats LSU and Tiger fans.
Caitlin was looking like Steph Curry out there. She has a ton of heart on the court. I have seen a individual with so much impact on a teams success since Kemba Walker with UConn.
Absolutely nothing to hold their head down about. Love to see the hurt because it means they care and put a lot of work into this. It should hurt to fall short. They lost but they aren’t defeated. Congratulations on a great season! These moments make you better👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
❤ congratulations Caitlin Clarke for having one of the greatest seasons in the history of college basketball nothing but love and respect for you always❤
Caitlin, real talk, you’re the reason everybody tuned in to watch this weekend. Respect. 👊🏾… Also, the woman’s tournament needs Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers in the national championship game next year 😳😱🤯🤗 FACTS 🔥💯
A Leader and a quality player....She has a such gift and also has respect for the game. (Love the foundation of her legacy) Congrats to all who gave their best. Solid team and fun~
Two class acts! The technical was horrible. She didn’t say a word. Caitlin is a great human, and will positively affect many lives from this day forward. She is inspiring.
She was out of control, and her temper has been on display throughout her career. Hopefully, this was a reality check for Caitlin Clark. The ego was unreal.
Especially with how many eyeballs this women's tournament got in front of. This may have been the most watched women's sports event in US history and the refs absolutely killed this game.
total of 37 fouls called is a record. Powers that be had better, imo, call that all woman refereeing team in for a debrief. Inconsistency, not calling flagrant fouls, ticky tacky stuff called on both teams totally disrupts the flow of play. LSU #2 went crazy (Ms. Carson) during a time when major Iowa players were on the bench with fouls.
@@maryj1156 That is incorrect, IMHO. I can't tell you how many over the back rebounding fouls I saw from LSU. This game was not officiated in an equal manner.
I've only tuned in the last two games because of seeing Caitlin's highlights from last week. I've been amazed. She is the Patrick Mahomes of womens college basketball. Watching her hit those long 3's on the fly is unbelievable!
@@DRAE1FR who else is making national headlines? Its literally been her. I appreciate how good some of the LSU girls are and the SC girls are but casual fans have no clue who they are. There wouldn't even be a discussion much more than a 2 minute ESPN segment if it wasn't for Caitlin.
Pure class, character and sportsmanship here! Be very proud ladies - you have conducted yourselves with great maturity and very valiantly. Proud Hawkeye moments. Proud to be a Hawkeye.
Iowans, and fans - girls and boys - love the way Iowa plays the game. Generational talent combined with amazing team execution, and driven by grit and unity. We couldn't ask for more and your sports(wo)manship is inspiring beyond sport.
Lots of teams could take a lesson from this young lady on how to lose gracefully and with respect for for theri oppenents . No punching someone in the face in the handshake line , no disrespectful comments or suggestions of racism but instead acknowledgement that the better team won today Perfect example of what a role model should be and what the kids of today should be looking up to .
LSU fan here. That was an incredible game. Nothing to hang your head about, it was just LSU’s day. If we shot how we shot in the elite eight, Iowa would have blown us out. Also the refs were calling nit picky calls all game on both sides. I was not happy about the technical on Clark it was BS. Let them play and have emotions! Great game Iowa, much respect.
I truly believe, if y’all would have beat Iowa, y’all would have been hoisting that trophy 🏆 again tonight. LSU is that blind squirrel that lucked up and found that 🌰.
I'm an LSU fan, spent all my higher ed there and yet have such great respect for the way these ladies handled this with such class. They are an inspiration and a model for how to handle yourself when life doesn't go your way.
These gals can flat out BALL .. Caitlin is one of the best shooters we've seen in a long time, I hope that when she hits the WNBA everyone who is here stays with her, the WNBA needs the fan fare!
Reece too I was just saying this that Reece vs Caitlin gone be lovely to see. Haven’t been hype bout women basketball since sheesh maya moore seriously
LSU coach was able to address the errors of the SC team whom Iowa beat earlier... I listened to her comments last night when she had observed Clarks' game... I have not heard of the scouting report by Iowa's staff on the LSU's previous game
Even without the win the sportsmanship and talent is amazing. This team, especially Clark got me interested in watching and cheering for their victory.
The level of excitement you brought to this competition and how you elevated the game of women’s basketball were phenomenal. You punched yourself to people’s minds which is more than a championship ring by itself. Your name is a brand now - Caitlin Clark. Congratulations!
The refs did not let either team play their best - was a major contribution to this game. Not sure if it would of helped Iowa win but think the score would of been a lot closer, LSU was on fire.
The refs hurt Iowa more, because they didn't have a bench like LSU. That tech foul on Caitlin Clark was pure b/s. At the start of the 4th quarter IOWA had three starters with 4 fouls. LSU was able to keep Angel Reese on the bench the entire secound quarter, because they had a bench.
I agree they were bad for both teams just the calls on Iowa were always in the middle of them catching momentum and the call ruined it so yes the amount of fouls isn't too different but when they called them hurt Iowa
@@FuShengAlex When the refs target one team disproportionately, gotta call em out, kiddo. Those "refs" were out of their league. They were horrible. Best part is, the whole country knows how bad they are now.
Go get Trump's bail money Cornball.... she's the Eminem of College basketball... slightly above average for her appearance. She will not return to the Championship game next year.
Can we just drop all of the negativity and say these young ladies on both teams played so incredible and apparently due to the fact it was probably the most watched women’s college game in history… all of these ladies deserve respect and praise no matter how you feel both sides have it all they had.
They are all great kids. LSU and Iowa. I hope they keep their spirits up and active. It's exciting to witness the growth of women's basketball and sports.

Two class acts! The technical was horrible. She didn’t say a word. Caitlin is a great human, and will positively affect many lives from this day forward. She is inspiring.
Alotta calls were terrible, wish I could've seen Iowa ball
Class act? Throwing the ball like a child and acting arrogant all tournament like she is already the next Sue Bird is a class act
She was out of control, and her temper has been on display throughout her career. Hopefully, this was a reality check for Caitlin Clark. The ego was unreal.
#22 was responsible for over 50% of the 6 million viewers!
One foul against her was complete bs. Might have been the T. You saw she did nothing on the replay. Absolutely nothing.
Those fouls were not NCAA finals type fouls, let them play
I said same thing nobody wanted to see the refs part of the game it’s the championship. 🤦🏽♂️
Especially with how many eyeballs this women's tournament got in front of. This may have been the most watched women's sports event in US history and the refs absolutely killed this game.
But it was practically equal fouls so officiating didn't affect the outcome.
total of 37 fouls called is a record. Powers that be had better, imo, call that all woman refereeing team in for a debrief. Inconsistency, not calling flagrant fouls, ticky tacky stuff called on both teams totally disrupts the flow of play. LSU #2 went crazy (Ms. Carson) during a time when major Iowa players were on the bench with fouls.
@@maryj1156 That is incorrect, IMHO. I can't tell you how many over the back rebounding fouls I saw from LSU. This game was not officiated in an equal manner.
This is a masterclass in class and humility.
Thank You Catin,your answer to the Angel question was very professional and mature. it's the media trying to tarnish Angel
You have much to be proud of. The team played hard the whole time and didn’t give up. It was great fun watching you play.
I've only tuned in the last two games because of seeing Caitlin's highlights from last week. I've been amazed. She is the Patrick Mahomes of womens college basketball. Watching her hit those long 3's on the fly is unbelievable!
Same here. Just seen the last two games.
Me 2. The 1st women's game I've ever watched, I wished the refs would've let me enjoy it but they stole the moment tbh
She singlehandedly revived the game of women's basketball.
Not single-handedly. She’s in a great era of women’s basketball
@@DRAE1FR who else is making national headlines? Its literally been her. I appreciate how good some of the LSU girls are and the SC girls are but casual fans have no clue who they are. There wouldn't even be a discussion much more than a 2 minute ESPN segment if it wasn't for Caitlin.
@@bigmac27sauce59 paige bueckers
Slow down champ lol
Revived would mean it actually had life at some point 🤔
Pure class, character and sportsmanship here! Be very proud ladies - you have conducted yourselves with great maturity and very valiantly. Proud Hawkeye moments. Proud to be a Hawkeye.
And great, positive role models for young fans!
Shut up Beth! Class is something white people bring up to shame non white people.
Oh she's a role model???? Taunting other players and fans is being a role model?
@@tariusrobinson8296 🤡
she better stop taunting 😂😂😂
Iowans, and fans - girls and boys - love the way Iowa plays the game. Generational talent combined with amazing team execution, and driven by grit and unity. We couldn't ask for more and your sports(wo)manship is inspiring beyond sport.
Lots of teams could take a lesson from this young lady on how to lose gracefully and with respect for for theri oppenents . No punching someone in the face in the handshake line , no disrespectful comments or suggestions of racism but instead acknowledgement that the better team won today Perfect example of what a role model should be and what the kids of today should be looking up to .
She balled out. Respect!
These two ladies are fabulous ambassadors for the women's game.
Are those really "ladies?"
LSU fan here. That was an incredible game. Nothing to hang your head about, it was just LSU’s day. If we shot how we shot in the elite eight, Iowa would have blown us out. Also the refs were calling nit picky calls all game on both sides. I was not happy about the technical on Clark it was BS. Let them play and have emotions! Great game Iowa, much respect.
The law firm is so well spoken! So much joy given to people with an affiliation to the University. Huge Thank you ladies!
Can't see it now but she won soooo much more. Definitely will be watching next year and when she goes to the WNBA
Love this team! They have so much to be proud of! What a run! What a class act!
As a Gamecocks fan most definitely enjoyed watching the games. Big ups to all the teams.
I truly believe, if y’all would have beat Iowa, y’all would have been hoisting that trophy 🏆 again tonight. LSU is that blind squirrel that lucked up and found that 🌰.
When she started crying it was pure joy 🤩
I'm an LSU fan, spent all my higher ed there and yet have such great respect for the way these ladies handled this with such class. They are an inspiration and a model for how to handle yourself when life doesn't go your way.
Refs were bad, but as an Iowa fan I can’t deny what LSU did in the first half. Hard to beat a team that shoots like that.
those weren't the same refs for the SC game. If these refs were in that game, Iowa would have lost by 20 points or more!!
@@youllfloat2pennywise344 COPE!
@@Tavat it will be very nice to see these 2 teams play during the regular season. SC would own them!
They got away with pushing off and elbowing against USC but not today 🤣
Caitlin Clark is amazing! ❤🎉
These gals can flat out BALL .. Caitlin is one of the best shooters we've seen in a long time, I hope that when she hits the WNBA everyone who is here stays with her, the WNBA needs the fan fare!
This Girl Has Changed The Game,.. Huge Fan From Boston Caitlin Clark
She seems like such a Great Person... Who could dislike her? I am a fan now. She's inspiring me.
You're right, Batman🦇
Caitlin Clark might be the superstar to pull up the WNBA 💪🏿💯
Reece too I was just saying this that Reece vs Caitlin gone be lovely to see. Haven’t been hype bout women basketball since sheesh maya moore seriously
Facts. I hope they definitely meet up often in the WNBA like Bird and Magic 🏀🤞🏽
LSU coach was able to address the errors of the SC team whom Iowa beat earlier... I listened to her comments last night when she had observed Clarks' game... I have not heard of the scouting report by Iowa's staff on the LSU's previous game
Yup..
SC defense was weak and they didn't attack as the should
It was a tough game. LSU just got hot at the right time. Iowa had an awesome season and a great NCAA Tournament.
Even without the win the sportsmanship and talent is amazing. This team, especially Clark got me interested in watching and cheering for their victory.
The level of excitement you brought to this competition and how you elevated the game of women’s basketball were phenomenal. You punched yourself to people’s minds which is more than a championship ring by itself. Your name is a brand now - Caitlin Clark. Congratulations!
Great player, but outside of her & Monika Iowa didn't really seem to have much else offensively. LSU had a lot of shooters.
You're right. Iowa needs a rebounding coach as well. And a couple more taller, longer-armed players as well, who can shoot, and don't play so timid.
Shooters not typically hitting those shots…
@@BlankManj5 But they did today and they are what? Champions
@@NFLOLDMAN771 Yup, LSU and the refs, naty champs!!!
@@BlankManj5 Iowa had 1 more foul than LSU..and stars in foul trouble. Didn't affect the game outcome.
The refs did not let either team play their best - was a major contribution to this game. Not sure if it would of helped Iowa win but think the score would of been a lot closer, LSU was on fire.
The refs hurt Iowa more, because they didn't have a bench like LSU. That tech foul on Caitlin Clark was pure b/s. At the start of the 4th quarter IOWA had three starters with 4 fouls. LSU was able to keep Angel Reese on the bench the entire secound quarter, because they had a bench.
Unlike iowa vs sc..they were allowed to play at full throttle..so why is there a double standard???? Happens in lots of sports. Oh well bye
Refs were trash last game as well
I agree they were bad for both teams just the calls on Iowa were always in the middle of them catching momentum and the call ruined it so yes the amount of fouls isn't too different but when they called them hurt Iowa
Out side the competition on the court Iowa have been class personified
This game was a reminder for old heads like me of ‘79 MSU vs Indiana State
I’m not gonna lie I haven’t, watched a single women’s basketball game until I heard about Caitlin Clark. She’s so much fun to watch man. Big fan now.
CC is awesome. Period. She’s the reason I watched the game. ❤️
Very classy players there. Humble and respectful. Hope Iowa can win it next year.
Win or lose, You made us believe CC. that’s the most important for me. ❤
When the refs take sides, the game is already over.
@@steveker5084 I was going for Iowa but LSU were simply better overall and would've won refs or no refs. Well deserved win
@@FuShengAlex Disagree. Refs determine game tempo. Their calls went decidedly, and disproportionately against Iowa. Doesn't matter whose fan one is.
@@FuShengAlex When the refs target one team disproportionately, gotta call em out, kiddo. Those "refs" were out of their league. They were horrible. Best part is, the whole country knows how bad they are now.
Great way to answer the question about the officiating. World class ladies you should be proud of yourself
Caitlin Clark is an incredible player, 3 pointer monster⛹🏻♀️🏀
One the best ncaa players of all time in the tourney ❤❤❤she’s great keep striving for greatness and have that great winners mentality
Go get Trump's bail money
Cornball.... she's the Eminem of College basketball... slightly above average for her appearance. She will not return to the Championship game next year.
Iowa class across the board!!
She’s going to make women’s basketball a lot more popular
she's already accomplished that
Monika is a monster and played with so much heart I just wish she was taller. But love her hustle and heart
What I loved about CC is she uplifts her team and not her own glory. ❤
What a class act. Great press conference.
Can we just drop all of the negativity and say these young ladies on both teams played so incredible and apparently due to the fact it was probably the most watched women’s college game in history… all of these ladies deserve respect and praise no matter how you feel both sides have it all they had.
Gracious. LSU shot amazing. But the calls ruined what was a fun game. Bad for the sport.
Same thing happened when they okayed SC
Real talk I watched the entire game to see Caitlin Clark play and I was extremely impressed with how she played out there, generational player
incredible players. thanks for great show ladies! Go LSU!
This is what class looks like. Helluva season ladies! Monika you will be greatly missed
Both teams are classy.
@@princessmitchell4075 I wouldn’t say that after watching angel lol
@@princessmitchell4075 LMAO lay off the crack
@@princessmitchell4075 You're delusional.
@@cmm2023 exactly if LSU is classy I must have missed it lol
Caitlin Clark you are the best, before your school days are over I believe you will be a Champion.
They are all great kids. LSU and Iowa. I hope they keep their spirits up and active. It's exciting to witness the growth of women's basketball and sports.
Nothing to cry for Clark... You just got a new fan! Amazing Player
CONGRATS LSU!
This team got me watching women's college basketball, keep your heads up!
One thing you can’t take away from Clark is the fact she is a real BEAST! 💪🏽
