After rewatching this game, I can't believe ppl were complaining about the foul calls. If anything, there should've been even more called against WV. That was their entire game plan....
I think they thought they can just barrel through like a bull, it just shows how novice their team is. Good effort, good team, but too young to face someone like Clark. Lol I act like Clark’s much older. But she is….with her talent.
Exactly. Ultra aggressive defense against Iowa. Clark was called for offensive foul around the 8 minute mark. Replay showed her off hand is getting grabbed constantly and if she moves it at all the defense flops. Shortly before that she was tackled from behind and no call of course.
Not sure why I watched this game a second time. It was more frustrating than the first. There is a huge difference between playing good defense and being a "fouling machine." Even with all of their many fouls, WV could and should have been called for more. Frustrated viewer from Michigan here.
I really believe they thought they could ram themselves like a bunch of bulls, that just tells you how young of a team they are (against someone like Clark).
27:08 I know some people didn’t like the call but everyone should applaud that referee for actually caring about the player instead of trying to force a 5 second penalty. In every career we are taught safety first even though no one actually cares
Before i leave this mortal plane ~ i'm thankful that iv'e got to experience the joy iv'e felt watching Caitlin Clark do her thing... time after time, after time, after time, and so on and so forth.....................
What game were you watching? Yes, I can honestly say the refs favored Iowa. 30 free throws to 5 in favor of Iowa and your trying to B.S. us into believing the refs didn't favor Iowa? I want some of whatever you're smoking.
@@VincentBaker-j1b The favored or better teams almost always have a free throw advantage. LSU and SC had far greater FT disparity throughout the tournament and yet nobody says peep. Every team that played Iowa admitted that their game plan was for an ultra-aggressive defense - which means they will foul more, cover tighter, play rougher, etc. If they didn't Clark would light them up.
In the LSU, Iowa game I would move angel Reese to the point to defend Clark and bring another power forward off the bench for offense, my defense would be a box and one, I would take away her shot as well as her passing lanes.
Agreed, Beth Mowin calls the game well, didn't know her name until the end, she and sidekick gal did good, a pleasure to listen to, balanced also I felt.
Stuelke was trying to extricate her arm as they fell, that was a flagrant foul by Moore, she threw Hannah face first onto the floor, she didn't let go, she knew what she was doing.
I would've called a tech or a flagrant on Moore that one, not for Stuelke grab, but for reaching arm back sideways to smack Caitlin in the face, not in any way making a play on the ball. I'm OK with refs leaving it as a common foul, but would have been legit to upgrade also.
Most of their flops were legit in that frustrated Iowa player was giving WV player a forearm push-off and WV player had good position. Refs did right call on these. Also got calls right IMO on offensive foul on WV player barreling into Gabbie Marshall. These NCAA refs SO MUCH BETTER than WNBA refs.
martin, marshal, affolter need 2 amp up against LSU. martin N affolter should learn cross left right fade away jump shots. set up marshal 4 3points shots otherwise she can't contribute with intense on your face defense. clark don't seem 2 get 3point shots under on your face defense as well. LSU female ncaa seems 2b like Detroit male NBA of old. If LSU shots down clark with on your face defense, other players hav 2 step up their game.
I'm gonna give WV credit for hustle and effort and making some key 3's. I do see your point, that Moore chick went full-assault mode at end of game. WV had good game plan overall, gotta plan and work with what they had. Kudos to Iowa for overcoming this difficult team.
Refs were actually pretty good, didn't decide the game. WV aggressive defense led to more fouls and free throws down the stretch for Iowa. To bad you feel that way about the refs; I'm happy when the game is decided by the players on the floor and not the refs, which is what happened here.
Iowa was such a cute and fun story last year but this years tournament run for them felt so detached and not genuine at all because it’s obvious they were set and rigged to advance all the way to the championship for the ratings and views.. it lacked the magical feel from last year
It's sad to see young players copy the out of control flopping happening in the NBA, what is going on. What ever happened to 'let the players decide the game not the refs'? It's sad when players are rewarded for flopping and selling fouls. there should be post game penelties handed out, in the NBA< and in College games. As it is completely ruining the game...
@@amanrush7722 Now a days, the ref's in the NBA play like a 6th man. The thing is they don't even call basic game rules like traveling, or goal tending, illegal screens, etc Those are the things that if called enforce players to have skills to be able to play. When a person can take 5 gather steps, and then hop, come down, and then rejump again, and not get called for traveling it is seriously ridiculous. And all that 'helping' lower the skill level required to make plays with the ball, etc, just ruin the quality level of the game. It should be very strict at the level of the NBA, or WNBA. The players should not be able to get away with scooping the ball, their hand clealy under the ball, and turning 90 degrees left, and then spinning 180 right, and all the while the ball hasn't left their hand. That is just blatant cheating. yet it happens continually now, especially for some players. And it is ruining the game, compared to the skill level of the 90's, 80',s even 70's. And ignorant fans who don't understand that just because it seems like Lebron is making some great run at the net. When he can take 5 gather steps, hop, come back down completely and then hop again, without dribbling the ball once, and not get called, that is not skill, it's blatant cheating. And it's sad that fans don't understand that what MJ was way more skilled because he had to actually dribble the ball, and not scoop the ball under his arm, etc... Making the plays far far harder, and only people who play usually will understand the difference. So even before getting into fouls, we are seeing terrbile officianting..
The refs were pretty good overall in a difficult game to ref. WV aggressive D and fouls caught up with them near the end of the game. Kudos to WV for the effort and game plan and taking Iowa right to the limit.

The 6:28 mark in the 1st? She gets away with offensive fouls far too often. She's a great player... other than the crying and flopping.
Nha Theres a lot of push offs on Iowa this game ngl
Exactly. Ultra aggressive defense against Iowa. Clark was called for offensive foul around the 8 minute mark. Replay showed her off hand is getting grabbed constantly and if she moves it at all the defense flops. Shortly before that she was tackled from behind and no call of course.
You can say that for every game Iowa played in the tournament. Mainly the championship game! Half of South Carolina should have fouled out.

Imagine the bully ball that would have happened if Owusu would have transferred to WV rather than Penn St.
Looked like Birds 80s at times..loved it no crying in bb either
27:08 I know some people didn’t like the call but everyone should applaud that referee for actually caring about the player instead of trying to force a 5 second penalty. In every career we are taught safety first even though no one actually cares
Still should’ve been a 5 second tho in my opinion. Yes safety comes first but still..
Before i leave this mortal plane ~ i'm thankful that iv'e got to experience the joy iv'e felt watching Caitlin Clark do her thing... time after time, after time, after time, and so on and so forth.....................
At any moment knowing this is CC last NCAA game....history will be made
😢indeed😢
My bracket has been right this whole time wish me luck
They could have whistled WV for ten fouls in the first 5 minutes. Anybody watching this replay honestly can't say the refs favored Iowa.

@guy finally said it right
wv lost deal with it
@@gaysonmartinocho5262 Great effort from WV, had game tied with 3 minutes left. Respect!!
CC is like the reincarnated Artemis/Athena of basketball.
Iowa’s #24 is HOT! ❤
thats gabbie!!❤❤❤
Heck..hot girls all ❤
Caitlin if fiiiiiiire

They won’t risk changing something drastically. Basketball is about routine too.
Angel Reese can't guard Clark outside the shaded lane.. she is too slow to keep up...
Beth Mowin is such a great announcer❤
Agreed, Beth Mowin calls the game well, didn't know her name until the end, she and sidekick gal did good, a pleasure to listen to, balanced also I felt.
In addition to being a great basketball player, Caitlin did a good job as a cheerleader too!
I love watching IOWA team because of Hannah Stuelke 😍🥰
Coach Bluder’s final game in Carver. Go Hawks!!! 🖤💛
I hope caitlin clark whoops angel reese and lsu dudes
😂😂😂😂…somebody still mad from last year!
@@DaDONrefs obvi favored lsu- just saying
Iowa could at least make a bronze statue of Caitlin and place it on campus.

West Virginia played very dramatically- pretty much all there ‘falls’ were flops! Especially at 8:22
🤡
Most of their flops were legit in that frustrated Iowa player was giving WV player a forearm push-off and WV player had good position. Refs did right call on these. Also got calls right IMO on offensive foul on WV player barreling into Gabbie Marshall. These NCAA refs SO MUCH BETTER than WNBA refs.
Love your show, so proud of the gamecocks, my hometeam, and yes I'm the grandma sitting on the choir giving the grandkids that look. 😂😂
I call that marker, CC's Ball of Fame (22).
martin, marshal, affolter need 2 amp up against LSU. martin N affolter should learn cross left right fade away jump shots. set up marshal 4 3points shots otherwise she can't contribute with intense on your face defense. clark don't seem 2 get 3point shots under on your face defense as well. LSU female ncaa seems 2b like Detroit male NBA of old. If LSU shots down clark with on your face defense, other players hav 2 step up their game.
Who’s been watching this November 17, 2024? watched it the 3rd time.
Caitlin has extraordinary charisma!
If lsu used this level of defense the whole game Iowa is going to loose because lsu has many people that have talent 🤷🏽♀️
Caitlin won the Lottery with her Nike Deal... which will be small change when compared to her futuristic career earnings!!!
Change the fever coach PLEEEEEAAAAAAASSSSSSSEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
Pretty sure coach change will happen with new GM. Celebrate!
Iowa vs. West Virginia State Penitentiary
😂😂😂😂
ROFLMAO!!!

Go Iowa ❤
After washing this game I believe that the referees was helping the other team win

Gabbie Marshal is so beautiful 🤩 I wish Indiana would have drafted her to. Just for eye candy.
They tried that a couple of years ago (kysre gondrezick) and got burned.
WV playing football out there... ! 😮
Tough man to man defense the whole night. no easy passes
Kate Martin looks like the younger version of Barbara Streisand :)
Moore #33 is an KKong!

you can’t be serious
So youre the one who rated them and scored for them😂😂
God stop letting Beth Mowins call big games. There are so many better female announcers. She is terrible at her job.
Big clark fan but WV is the better team.. NCAAW needs to change the home court stuff for the opening rds. Neutral site Iowa goes home
Good game.This game reminded me of when the BIG EAST was the BIG EAST. I just realized it was 40 years ago. WOW!!!
Better team won
@@kyleelsbernd7566 yeah, thanks to the refs.

They are doing anything for Iowa. She literally Draymond her arm and pulled her down.
