You can't say one thing? We never gave up. Yes the last two mins was ugly but we didn't quit.
We had no answer for Wilson.
The Mississippi State Bulldogs were one of the teams playing for the National Championship tonight. That's a pretty good thing to say
SC was our kryptonite this year. I would've preferred to play any other team on their side of the bracket. That, coupled with us being gassed, it just wasn't in the cards...the difficulty of our bracket wore us down for them.
Wasnt just Wilson- they were killing us with offensive rebounds and getting to the FT line or making baskets.
SC was simply a better basketball team on both ends of the court.
They outscored us in the paint by 22 and on the FT line. They were more aggressive and Vic is too damn stubborn to play a zone to prevent folks from walking into the basket area. His not playing William or for that matter his own daughter much was a head scratcher. These are once in a lifetime games and we just watched a dumbass say it's my way or the highway and act like he had never seen USC before. Incredibly bad game plan and they beat us worse in each game. Hence, they made adjustments and we did not. Thanks for a truly idiotic game plan
SC got every loose ball and every rebound. We were a step slow on everything. The charges we usually get were blocks cause we were late getting to the spot. They beat us it happens, but this was a historic run and proud of the team and coaches.
Beating 3 #1 seeds in a row is an insane task for anyone.
Agree about Baylor and UConn outpacing us in talent. Both of those teams have 2-3 players that would all be the 2nd best player on South Carolina's team.
Disagree about Samuelson. She's a terrific shooter, but there are a lot of those out there. Plenty of good defensive guards out there can match up with her and contain her like Dillingham did the other night. Wilson's insane combination of size and athleticism makes her an impossible mismatch for any player in the country. McCowan had two inches on her but couldn't even come close to contesting anything she put up due to her athleticism.
The next time you see good coaching will be your first. It is the height of ignorance to see what you are doing isn't working, but decide to keep doing it. They were more athletic, so you counter by forcing them out of their comfort zone. Unlike a lot of MSU fans, I wasn't just happy to be there. Vic screwed this up and most of yall refuse to admit it. The little lady that got us there sat on the bench half the game. Sorry if you think that's good coaching. He didn't try that hard to get the ball to T. Sorry if you think that's good coaching. And he let them drive into the lane all night long, but played the same defense. Sorry if you think that's good coaching. And if we were just going to say that a team is better than us, so lets go home, then we would have never beaten UConn or Baylor.
All week long, William was the media darling and got more positive publicity than we could ever hope to buy. So we sit her half the game. Sorry if you are too love struck over Vic to realize that he got his ass handed to him.
Why don't you go sleep it off. NO WAY IN HELL Coach Schaefer deserves that garbage. He's a fantastic coach, and I wouldn't trade him for anybody, including Geno and Staley.
We've gotten better every year....exceeded our goal of making the FF, and he's done it with less overall talent than the other top teams in the NCAA.
And that defense that, "didn't work" 3 times vs SCar, actually did work the first time. We just got shafted in the 1st game by refs.
If you really try, you can separate the fact that Vic is a good coach, but had a horrible game plan, and made no adjustments to what they were doing. I may be asking too much.
Defense wasn't great tonight and that was due to what appeared to me to be tired legs as compared to USC. Now, that said 67 is not an insurmountable amount. If the offense is there, we win. USC does a great and I do mean great job frustrating our key scorers on nearly every possession. No other team has been capable of doing this against is.
Wilson is a freak of nature. She routinely beats double teams or does a good job finding an open guard on the wing.
I am not against them learning and implementing zone. The point is that it just wasn't going to happen tonight and that our normal defense is good enough to beat every other team in America.
We tried to double her in the post. You cant double her at the elbow- which is where she got the ball alot. We got hurt alot more on offensive rebounds for putbacks or free throws. They had 13 off rebounds and just about every one of those was put back or caused us to foul. Wilson, Gray, and Davis scored 51 of their 66 points. Those 3 did us in- it wasnt just Wilson
