The 2021 NCAA WBB Tournament Discussion Thread (Go Cyclones!)

And while we’re talking about Baylor, their esteemed coach really said something stupid the other day. She thought it would be a great idea to stop testing for Covid for the final four. Apparently she believes that even if players test positive they should be able to play. Obviously they are no threat to anyone else (rolling my eyes here).

Opinion: Baylor women's coach Kim Mulkey's suggestion to stop COVID tests is ignorant, irresponsible — USA TODAY

Baylor coach Kim Mulkey suggested that there should be no COVID testing before the Final Fours for the men's and women's NCAA basketball tournaments.

I think the men's officiating has actually gotten a lot better than 5-10 years ago.

A couple years before we played Ohio State they played Xavier and straight up lost the game if not for the officials trying to rig the game against Xavier on pretty much every play of the second half. It can be WWE level of rigged sometimes.

I would actually agree about the men's officiating. And it is why we are seeing more upsets as well. Remember this: https://collegebasketball.nbcsports...-syracuse-avoids-upset-against-unc-asheville/

Yikes!!

Hilarious watching her not be able to get comfortable with her mask. It clearly cramps her style.

And remember after our game she was talking like we should not even be playing with Coviid since she had to stay away after she was exposed and contracted it.

At halftime, Cocks are up 15 pts and they held the Horns down who only scored 22 pts. Charli Collier doesn't look like the projected #1 pick of the WNBA draft.

I think Collier has lost a lot of money in the last few weeks. Has not been the dominant player that someone projected to be #1 should be. I think her draft stock will drop.

0 points in the 4th quarter? Yikes, Vic.

And actually goes back 2-3 min or so in the third. Tsk-tsk.

Dawn Staley remains unbeaten when facing Vic Schaefer in the postseason.

And Vic Schaefer finally got time to shake hands with the other team's coach.

Charli Collier finished with 4 pts on 2-10 shooting.

Never scored in last 12:28 of the game. At that point they were only down 34-46. Final: 34-62.

I do enjoy seeing Texas get embarrassed. After the way this season played out, it couldn't have happened to a better Big 12 team. Zero points in the 4th. Zero. These are the things that make me smile...

Looks like it's a 1-1-1-3 wbb final four. Men's though could be even more chalk. If Michigan can get ucla men will be 1-1-1-2.

Congratulations Coach Frese! That's a tremendous and well-deserved accomplishment!

 

[CyclonesFan4ever]

To make it clear, I hate Iowa Hawkeyes but I really like Caitlin Clark as a basketball player. I wish her the best in the future.

 

[CyclonesFan4ever]

I'm glad to see WBB got more attention in this tournament. The women's games actually are more fun to watch than the men's.

Gary crying about a non foul call. Karma MF

I think aTm Coach Gary Blair once said something like " foul at every opportunity, they can't catch them all."

The officials for the Final Four games have been announced. Sadly, Melissa Barlow (officiated ISU vs TAMU game) and Felicia Grinter (officiated Troy vs TAMU game) are included.
