Geesh. People…it’s one game. USC is out for blood after their last loss and we've got a young team still finding their way. it’s ugly and won’t get better, but it’s still just one game.
Loss to UNI and a close Drake game kind of showed we weren’t a top 10 team. Not sure we’re a top 25 team with this showing.

I agree it's one game but it's also not unreasonable for fans to expect more than 3 points in a quarter.

It's also not like this team was not hyped up all year, it would be different vibes if this was not a preseason top 10 team.

When Coppin State scores more in 1 quarter on USC than a supposed top 10 team does all half, we're no better than a middle of the pack Missouri Valley team.

Everything about this is why I struggle to enjoy women’s basketball. The talent gap is too great, it feels like our girls have given up, the winning coaches don’t have a problem embarrassing the other team…

We are playing the defending national champions…The early ranking was bogus, but we will be just fine and are likely an upper teens low twenty team.
Not so sure. Getting slaughtered by USC is one thing. But, there isn’t much parity in women’s b-ball. Ranked teams shouldn’t be playing close games with UNI and Drake, even if they are in-state rivals.

The women doing commentary must have never seen an Iowa State Fennelly coached team. Confused that we have no players at the line when we shoot free throws. He’s done that for years.
