    Games Thread - The National Championship

    Nah, I’ve been a fan of women’s sports for years and I respect what she’s done for their perception. I just don’t think ANYONE should get that much media attention. Plus I’m irrationally bitter that it’s an Iowa player doing it. I’m well aware I’m in the wrong by having this reaction

    Not me, I’m happy to see Iowa go down. Caitlin Clark is probably the greatest women’s college player ever, I’ll give her that, and she seems like a good person. But I don’t like how the media is shoving her down everyone’s throats. How many commercials has she been in lately?

    If we can get Clingan in foul trouble, we have a chance.

    Yeah, gave up a transition drive for a very contested 3. Now it’s pretty much game over.

    Even though it’s unlikely, I think SDSU is the more likely team to knock off UConn. Not sure how many returning players they have from last year, but I imagine they’ll be hungry to avenge their title game loss.

    Which 1 seed do you think will be challenged the most today? As much as I’d like NW to take down UConn, I think the Huskies pull away by double digits in the second half. I would not be shocked to see Purdue or Houston get taken to the wire in their matchups.

    Ah man I like Dusty May. Gonna miss Michigan having an easy to hate (and easy to beat) coach.

    False, we scored 57 in the second half against Minnesota.

    Game Thread: Illinois vs Duquesne

    Think Duquesne’s game plan is still to hold us to the low 60s?

    WSU off to a good start. How do we match up with them compared to Iowa State?

    3/22 Games Thread

    I was at the game when our guys played them in Phoenix a few years back. One of the loudest sports environments I’ve ever experienced (until we made them quiet down). But I don’t think you’re entirely wrong about the religious-cult type vibe.

    Game Thread: Illinois vs Morehead State

    I feel like I’m more nervous than I should be about this game all of a sudden. Anyone else in the same boat?
