But I thought 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:55.560 that first game was so good, O Joe. We need 0:02:55.560 --> 0:03:00.160 to start with that one. Kaylyn Clark Carrie's IOWA as 0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:04.400 Angel Reese in the last year's national champ Louisiana Tech 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:07.880 Lady Tigers to reach the final four ninety four to 0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:12.520 eighty seven. Clark forty one points with twelve assists lifted 0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:16.280 the top seeds Hawkeyes over last year's defending champ. I 0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:18.600 would advances to the final four for the second straight 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.519 year and gains a measure of revenge against the team 0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:23.959 that knocked them out, who beat them in the national 0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:27.919 title game. Last year, Caitlin Clark was phenomenal. O Sho 0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:33.520 Todd Nancy record tournament record with nine three pointers, broke 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:35.600 the game open. It was forty five forty five and 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:37.600 a half. And then she comes out in the third 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:40.520 quarter and launches four in hits him, and now she's 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:43.560 broken the NCAA all time record for three pointers made 0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:47.560 five hundred and forty with another game possible two games 0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:52.160 to go, she passes Oklahoma Taylor Robinson's five five thirty seven. 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:55.640 It was also Clark's twentieth game in which she scored 0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:58.360 at least thirty points and ten assists in her career. 0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:02.360 This is also clark third game with forty points, double 0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:05.960 doubles in the NCAA Tournament Elite eight, twenty twenty three 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:09.360 National semi Finals, and the twenty twenty four Elite eight. 0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:12.960 So she was phenomenal. Andrew Rees was great until she 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:16.440 filed out seventeen points twenty rebounds. She filed out late 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:18.719 in the fourth quarter. She tweaked that anchor early in 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:22.279 the ball game. Ojo Flaje Johnson added twenty three, but 0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:25.760 it was not enough to overcome Kaitlyn Clark and the 0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:28.760 Hawk Eyes. Ojo, you watched this game, what'd you like 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:29.200 about it? 0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:32.960 Listen, I watched the game. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it. 0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:35.520 It was it was very worthy of all the hype 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:39.760 that everybody talked about. Obviously Kaitlyn Clark and what she's 0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:43.080 done throughout them throughout the entirety of the season. Andrew 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:45.359 Reese with her and the LSU Tigers have done throughout 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:47.479 the entirety of the season. In the build up to 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:52.440 this matchup, it was everything I expected to be, especially 0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:55.240 for me, someone who doesn't watch much basketball. This was 0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:57.440 a joy for me to watch because of it. It's exciting. 0:04:57.480 --> 0:05:02.680 It was exciting all four quarters. Obviously, Caitlyn Clark, Dude, 0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:08.960 she's amazing. Bruh, She's amazing. She's amazing. Listen. I don't 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:10.960 want to do any type of comparisons as far as 0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:16.240 NBA players, but pulling up from half court, pulling up 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:20.440 from McDonald's, pulling up from outside the gym, pulling up 0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:23.480 from the stands basically is what she did out there. 0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:26.080 And she was so efficient from the field and being 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.040 able to do whatever she wanted the entirety of the 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:30.719 night was really awesome. It was awesome to see. It 0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:35.120 was a great matchup LSU Tigers coach Mochi and Angel 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:38.159 Reese and their squad. They played a hell of a game, 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:41.920 but it just wasn't enough to unseat the Iowa Hawk 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:44.839 Eyes a night. I really enjoyed it. I really did. 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:47.479 Yeah. I think the real women's college game is alive 0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:50.560 and well. Last year, this game just slightly less than 0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:52.760 ten million. I can believe it's going to be double 0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.400 digits at least when we get the ratings back tomorrow. 0:05:56.720 --> 0:06:00.280 Caitlin Clark was phenomenal. You knew she would be felt 0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:02.040 in order for her to win this game, I felt 0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:04.000 she was the best player on the court, but I 0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:06.520 felt LSU had the better team and in order for 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:08.760 a hour to advance, she was gonna have to have 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:11.520 a Cheryl Swoops type of a game. And uh at 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:15.200 cherryff Swoops Nationally in the National Championship game, she shot 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:17.440 shot sixteen or twenty two or seventeen or twenty two. 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:20.560 She had forty seven, and she lifted her team. Kaitlyn 0:06:20.600 --> 0:06:24.279 Clark had a similar type game. She was phenomenal. Cheryl 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:28.400 didn't have the assist and I thought Lsu did a 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:31.080 terrible job Kim Moki did a terrible job of coaching, 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:33.120 because they did nothing to get the ball out of 0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:35.960 her hands. You gotta trap her, you gotta blitzer, make 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.559 her give the ball up. You know, when she goes left, 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:41.760 she's looking to launch a three three. Yeah, if she 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:43.960 goes right, she's looking to keep the ball, or she's 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:45.960 gonna give it up and she's gonna go get it back. 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:50.719 Watch to look at the way what u khon how 0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:53.599 they approached Juju Watkins, she got the ball, They trapped, 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:57.200 they blizzer give it up. Sometimes you you sometimes you 0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.680 either you know you show but you can't. And then 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:01.760 the first two possessions, what did they do? Ojoe? They 0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:05.000 go under You mean to tell me, Kaitlyn Clark, who 0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:07.920 arguably one of the greatest shooters in women's college history, 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:12.200 you're gonna go under the screen. There's no possible way 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.840 you rehearse that, I'm gonna say, Kim Bulkie. She coached 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:17.920 them to go over the screen, and that was just 0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:21.080 them going under the screen. But there's no would you 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:23.960 ever go up under screen? Over on Steph Curry, would 0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:26.920 you never ever go up under screen on Dame Lillard. 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:30.320 Absolutely not. You have to give her the same level 0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:32.960 of respect in the women's college game that you would 0:07:32.960 --> 0:07:35.680 give those great shooters, and that what she is. And 0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:39.720 so I just didn't see enough adjustments. Lsu did a 0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:43.880 tremendous job on the glass. I'll rebounded by eighteen. I 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:49.480 thought when Angel Reese tweaked that ankle, she wasn't the 0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:51.880 same player because she didn't have the same level of 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:56.320 lyft ojo. But also you look at I were early on. 0:07:56.360 --> 0:07:58.880 What were they looking to do? Push the pace figure, 0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:02.400 they're looking to get it. There's some look the court. 0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:05.840 We can't let you set your defense because we don't 0:08:05.840 --> 0:08:08.320 have the size to match up with you. So every 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:10.960 chance we can get an easy bucket, we're looking to 0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:11.320 get that. 0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:12.320 We're gonna get it. 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:17.080 Clark, get the ball, eyes immediately up, she's ahead right boom. 0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:19.960 But give you know what, even though I thought ls 0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:23.880 you did a terrible job of defensing Caitlyn Clark, you 0:08:24.000 --> 0:08:26.440 have to give her because she rolls to the occasion, 0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:29.240 one or two things needed to happen. You make her 0:08:29.240 --> 0:08:31.840 a score or you make her a facilitator. But you 0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:33.960 can't letter do both. You can't let it go get 0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:37.080 forty one and twelve assists, because now you're add a mercy, 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:40.080 you add a mercy. Oh Joe, you gotta make a decision, 0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:43.880 bron either gonna get thirty forty with three or four 0:08:44.040 --> 0:08:47.839 five assists, or you're gonna get fifty, but we're not 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:51.440 gonna let you get forty and fifteen. Can't let these 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:54.760 great players do that to you because now not only 0:08:54.800 --> 0:08:58.360 are they getting theirs, they're allowing their other team, their teammates, 0:08:58.360 --> 0:08:59.400 to get involved as well. 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:02.559 Yeah, sometimes you have to think about it. There are ways, 0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:06.120 like you just said, not allowing or trying to contain 0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:08.240 a player. You can't stop them. You can only you 0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:10.720 can only hope to contain them, yes, or slow them down. 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:13.720 They would find ways. They would run plays and find 0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:16.080 ways to get Caitlin Clark the ball and make sure 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:18.439 she can get those shots off and get open. And 0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:22.200 then if let's say the coaching was a little different 0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:26.000 on coach Mokey's part, I think still then the hawk 0:09:26.080 --> 0:09:29.240 eyes would adjust and still find ways to make sure 0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:31.760 they can find ways to get Caitlin Carr open. And 0:09:31.800 --> 0:09:34.959 she's one who can How do I say this the 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.440 right way? In basketball terms, she can create a shot 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:39.599 on her own. Yes, she can create a shot on 0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:41.400 the home where she doesn't need much help. So once 0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:43.839 you put in an instructured environment, now you have picks, 0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:46.040 and you got screens, you got rolls, then that makes 0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:46.840 even that much better. 0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:51.120 So because what she said when they said to pick 0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:53.440 and roll, you brought to defend the closer. Now I 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:55.760 can trap you. Now I can blitch you and make 0:09:55.800 --> 0:09:57.840 you give the ball up. Now you might get it 0:09:57.880 --> 0:09:59.920 back or they might roll to the basket. But I 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:02.360 I can't let Caitlyn Clark. What do you say if 0:10:02.360 --> 0:10:05.000 I'm playing a team with a great receiver, if the 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:07.240 number two guys the number three guy beat me, I 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:11.400 can live with that. Hey if t Higgins, if Taylor 0:10:11.480 --> 0:10:14.160 Boy beats me, I just can't let Jamar Chase go 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:17.160 get two hundred and three touchdown. So if T. Higgins 0:10:17.120 --> 0:10:19.360 goes get one to twenty five and Boy gives me 0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:21.880 seventy five and two touchdowns, I can live with that. 0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:25.040 Because there's three guys, I just can't let the guy. 0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:27.920 I know they're trying to get the ball to beat me. 0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:30.800 You know, the one chance they got a beating you 0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:33.800 is Caitlin Clark. So if somebody else rides to the 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.839 occasion on Joe, Hey, we've seen that happen. We've seen 0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:41.200 that happen before. The second third tier guy guys rise 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:44.080 to the occasion. But I can't let Caitlyn Clark go 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.600 get forty one twelve. Right, I have a question. 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:50.120 Hey, I'm looking at the chat and they said, my 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:51.000 cameras blurry? 0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:53.600 Is it blurrying? Your in looks fine? I look blurry, 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:59.280 looks fine to me. Huh. They say it's fixed now, Sid, 0:10:59.280 --> 0:10:59.679 it's fixed. 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:04.880 Yeah, okay, Oh, chat was making fun of the cameras 0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:07.439 by my camera back my camera from twenty thirteen. 0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:11.040 Well, the night cap looks blurry. Night cap does look blurry? 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:11.640 Can you see it? 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:13.280 Oh? 0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:15.640 You say you were blurry to say the night cap 0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:18.040 is blurry, but you were blurry at first. 0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:19.360 So what do I do? 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:21.480 You good? You good as long as you can. We 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:23.920 don't care about the sign long as you long. 0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:28.160 As you're clear, okay, long, yeah, yeah, yeah, Lowers, you're clear. Okay, Okay, 0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:29.800 I'm ready Now, I'm ready. I want to talk some 0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:30.480 more basketball. 0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:32.320 Yeah. I just think the thing is old. Show is 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:35.600 that look great players are going to be great, but 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:37.920 you gotta really going to rise to the occasion. But 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:40.560 I got to make it tough on you. Right, there's 0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:42.680 a reason why they locked the doors. They put the 0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:44.679 money in the ball. They don't have the money on. 0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:47.040 When you walk into the cash and the money just 0:11:47.040 --> 0:11:50.680 sitting up there, We're gonna make it difficult for you. 0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:54.680 You're there's one hundred cap If you look at every 0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:56.640 stall and you go up to the cash here, every 0:11:56.640 --> 0:11:59.880 stall has a camera pointing directly on it. Most of 0:11:59.880 --> 0:12:05.360 the time they're security in there. There's a big old vault. Okay, 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:07.560 So I've got to make it difficult for you. Yeah. 0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:11.199 Do people steal money from a bank. Absolutely, But is 0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:14.720 it easy. No. No, great players are gonna get fairs. 0:12:14.880 --> 0:12:17.200 But I can't make it easy on you. I gotta 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:19.320 make it as difficult as I possibly can. I got 0:12:19.320 --> 0:12:22.640 to make you exert. I gotta make you take some contested, tough, 0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:26.080 tough shots. But I also know the game plan says 0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:29.560 that when she goes left, she likes to launch the three, 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:32.199 and when she goes right, she's looking to finish, or 0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:34.160 she'll give it up and try to get it back. Well, 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:37.760 if I know that as soon as he come left, 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:39.480 I'm gonna come try, I'll come blister. I'm gonna get 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:40.200 it out of hands. 0:12:40.520 --> 0:12:42.160 You know it's funny. I like that you said that, 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:43.840 but you hear how you just called out the game 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:46.000 plan based on what she likes to do. Yeah, and 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:48.160 you know it in your mind, but then having to 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:49.760 execute it and stop it on the court is a 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:50.640 whole different ball game. 0:12:50.760 --> 0:12:51.520 Yes, hell, you know. 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:53.439 You know what Lebron gonna do when he looked down 0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:54.959 at the ball and he stepped back to hit that 0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:57.599 goddamn three. You know what Lebron gonna do when he 0:12:57.640 --> 0:12:59.640 goes to the right, He drives to the basket right. 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:00.680 Well, I know that, but. 0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:02.839 Has anybody been able to stop it when it comes 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:05.400 to Kobe when Kobe and his go to move, well, 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:09.000 Michael Jordan his go to move, help God damned Dame Lillard, Kyrie. 0:13:09.360 --> 0:13:12.280 There's certain moves that players had that they do consistently 0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:16.200 that we watching from home or as analysts, as journalists. 0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:18.480 We know what they like to do, but the hard 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:20.720 part is stopping it because they're so good at it. 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:23.400 If he hits that shot and I got a hand 0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:25.240 in his face, I can live with that. 0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:27.160 You got to live with that, right, right, But the. 0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:29.760 Fact of the matter is, I'm not up on the guy, 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.080 and I know Lebron is looking at the ball and 0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:36.040 I'm three feet away. Because still the Scotty report on 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:39.080 Lebron is that don't let him get past you, don't 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:41.679 let him get downhill. So a lot of times they'll 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:44.439 concede the shot, that three point shot. Now he's made 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:46.480 him pay for it a lot. This year, he's shooting 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:48.920 almost forty two percent from the three. But I just 0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:51.480 believe Look, maybe it was in the cars. This game 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:59.160 reminded me a lot of the UNLV Duke game. UNLV 0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:01.800 blew him out eighteen ninety. They came back, tried to 0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:04.800 repeat it was perfect, undefeated, and dude got a measure 0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:10.880 of revenge. Duke played extremely well. But I just I 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:14.960 just thought that Lsu, LSU, there are some things that 0:14:15.000 --> 0:14:17.920 they probably should have done. And I'm sure kill Mulky. 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:20.760 She probably won't admit, but she probably gonna say, you 0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:22.240 know what, we should have tried to get the ball 0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:24.760 out of her hands a lot sooner. I mean, it 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:26.720 wasn't until like a couple of minutes left in the game. 0:14:26.760 --> 0:14:28.560 Then all of a sudden you lifts her all of 0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:31.840 a sudden, you switch it, bro, you should have been doing. 0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:38.280 That's okay, right. 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:39.280 Oh, so you can't let me catch you deep balls early. 0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:41.400 That so you got hell on your hands for the 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:42.000 rest of the game. 0:14:42.480 --> 0:14:44.800 And you know, you know what's funny is, for one, 0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:46.560 they allowed her to get in the rhythm. Yes, and 0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:48.200 you know she's in the rhythm because you're pulling up 0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:50.600 from anyone that goddamned court. Once you had that type 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:53.200 of confidence and once you rolling like that in the game, 0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:55.600 there's really nothing you can do. There's really nothing you 0:14:55.600 --> 0:14:58.320 could do except find a way to try to find 0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:01.160 a way to distinguish the fire, to put the fire out. 0:15:01.320 --> 0:15:03.440 And how do you do that? That's by trapping early, 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:06.480 finding ways to disrupt, disrupt the timing of the offense, 0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:09.320 get in the way, play a little bit more aggressive, 0:15:09.440 --> 0:15:12.800 a little bit more aggressive than usual. But I mean 0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:15.640 they weren't able to do it. And you know, now 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.840 we got but who played? Who plays next? 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:22.160 So South Carolina? South Carolina plays North Carolina State at 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:23.440 Iowa plays Yukon. 0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:27.600 Okay, okay, okay, Now do you have a favorite in 0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:29.960 that I in that uh in at Iowa Yukon match up. 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:35.600 I think I will will be favored slightly, right. But 0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:37.880 the one thing, A it's hard to bet against Gino 0:15:37.920 --> 0:15:41.240 in the big game. Geno A he's gonna get it. 0:15:41.240 --> 0:15:43.680 He's gonna get his young ladies ready to play. That's 0:15:43.720 --> 0:15:46.480 one thing Gino does. And Gino and you see Gino, 0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:48.280 he made it tough. He made it tough on their 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:51.720 best player. Juju Jia. Yeah, yeah, he made it tough. 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:53.280 I will bless you. I'm gona trap you. I'm gonna 0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:55.840 do everything I possibly can. What makes her so good 0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:57.360 is that she's still able to put the ball on 0:15:57.400 --> 0:15:59.800 the floor. She got a euro step she can step 0:15:59.800 --> 0:16:03.200 through still she could pull up, so she is she's 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:06.240 really fundamentally sound. You can tell she's worked with a 0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:09.720 coach before. She probably trained in the offseason with a 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:13.360 lot of guys because your game is really similar to 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:15.200 the guys. A lot of the stuff that she does 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:19.480 reminds you of a bail player. She was sensational, But 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:23.400 kudos to the Iowa haw guys. They're moving on advancing 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:26.760 to the Final four for the third time. Nineteen ninety 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:29.240 three was the first time, twenty three was the second time. 0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:31.400 In back to back years twenty three and twenty four 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:34.960 thanks to a hercules effort by Claitland Clark. She was 0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:37.440 thirteen of twenty nine from the field, nine of twenty 0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:40.720 from the three, six to seven from the free throw line. 0:16:40.760 --> 0:16:44.240 She had seven rebounds twelve assents. Turned the ball over, 0:16:44.320 --> 0:16:46.400 but that's to be expected because she had the ball. 0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:49.720 He played the entire forty minutes of the ball game. Yeah, 0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:54.480 no rest, no rest, no rest. But they did a 0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:58.280 great job and they're advancing very well, very well deserved. 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:00.160 And I thought the LSU and the win, I mean, 0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:03.200 this is going to be the most watched game because 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:05.240 it was so close throughout their tired of the game. 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.000 All Oys was gonna be on this game considering of 0:17:08.040 --> 0:17:12.080 what transpired last year, and I will get some measure 0:17:12.119 --> 0:17:15.440 of revenge. They come out and they win this ball 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:19.040 game ninety four to eighty seven. They advanced to the 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:27.960 Final four to take on the Yukon Huskies. Yukon Huskies, 0:17:28.000 --> 0:17:31.080 the number three seed, takes down the number one seed, 0:17:31.640 --> 0:17:34.560 the USC Lady Trojans by the score of eighty to 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:40.720 seventy three. Paige Beckers twenty six, twenty eight points, ten rebounds, 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:45.040 six assists, three steals, two blocks. She was eleven of 0:17:45.080 --> 0:17:47.600 twenty three from the floor, three of six from the 0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:50.720 three point line, three or three from the free throw line. 0:17:50.920 --> 0:17:55.879 She had twenty eight points, ten rebounds, six assists. Aliah 0:17:56.040 --> 0:17:59.760 Edwards has twenty four points, six rebounds, one assist to block. 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:04.800 They got great contributions. Juju Watkins was nine of twenty 0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:06.480 five two or six, nine a nine from the free 0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:11.399 throw line. She had twenty nine points, ten rebounds, two assists. 0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:18.439 Forbes had twenty four points, three rebounds, three assists. I 0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:22.800 just and you could look, Oh, Joe, give Gino credit 0:18:22.840 --> 0:18:25.280 because obviously he did not want Juju to go haywy. 0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:28.520 She's more than capable of going haywire. I'm gonna make 0:18:28.560 --> 0:18:30.960 it tough. You see the percentage she shot nine of 0:18:31.040 --> 0:18:33.879 twenty five, right, I'm gonna make it. I'm gonna make 0:18:33.920 --> 0:18:36.480 it tough. Great players are gonna get their numbers. Go, Joe. 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:39.320 The likelihood of you stopping a great receiver, well he 0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:42.960 doesn't get any catches. But I gotta limit you right 0:18:43.080 --> 0:18:44.960 wherever you catch the ball, I gotta get you on 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:45.399 the ground. 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:48.119 Do you think it also do you think it's also 0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:50.879 about personnel? Actually having the personnel to be able to 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:52.119 pull off some of the things you want to do 0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:53.879 and being able to stop at Caitlin Clark. If you 0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:55.920 don't have the personnel to do so, then it makes 0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:59.520 it very coaching can do that you have someone just 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:01.880 that grit, well, you're gonna have the personnel to pull 0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:03.040 off what you need to get done. 0:19:03.080 --> 0:19:07.159 All year long, Flaje Johnson guarded the best the best 0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:11.280 perimeter player for the opposing team L s U. For 0:19:11.320 --> 0:19:13.560 some reason, Kim MOKEI said, you know what, We're gonna 0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:17.240 put Hailey van Lyft on her slower foot and she's small. 0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:20.880 Flage is not seven foot six foot tall, but she's 0:19:20.960 --> 0:19:24.840 quick footed. Mm hmm. So she's able to slide and 0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:27.840 and and and and probably disrupt her better than Haley 0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:31.600 Van Lyft could. So that sometimes you know, coaches getting 0:19:31.600 --> 0:19:33.600 their own head too, and they try to think, they 0:19:33.640 --> 0:19:35.959 try to make make things more difficult than what they 0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:38.359 need to be. Right, right, what have you been doing 0:19:38.440 --> 0:19:41.240 all year? Who's been guarding the best perimeter player for 0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:44.879 the opposing team? Flage? This game, it didn't happen. You 0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:47.080 start out with Hailey Van Lyft on her Hailey van 0:19:47.200 --> 0:19:50.880 Lift is slow. Uh, she's she's not as tall as 0:19:50.720 --> 0:19:55.320
