Ice bath and some good rest, now. This team has mettle, and the big tourney awaits.The girls deserved so much better than what they've receieved today. Good thing this gives us a few more days to prepare our revenge in the big one.
Agreed…the coaches made plenty of errors in this oneNeed a Rhoads “after Texas loss” type speech from Fennelly after this
Warlick is a disgrace. She’s called us Iowa several times no correction.Could the announcers be any more obvious who they want to win this game? It's total crap....
Then why no calls on Texas for extending the arm all 2nd half? (I assume it happened in the 1st, too, but I wasn't able to watch)Can't extend the arm there. That was the correct call unfortunately.
Super proud of these ladies today. They showed they can beat this type of team. Huge confidence builder even in a loss. Took Texas shooting out of their ass from three to win this one.
Exactly. we can whine all we want, but i have seen at least 5 lay ups that have been air balled. then we had a complete meltdown in the 3rd quarter on the press. that is like a 10-20 point swing. all on us. I also think the way we play makes it feels like we always get fouledWe can blame the refs all we want, but Lordy there was some disfunctional decision making in the second half and overtime.
Didn't say anything about the crap Texas has gotten away with. Just that that was the correct call. Too bad the officials didn't apply it across the board.Then why no calls on Texas for extending the arm all 2nd half? (I assume it happened in the 1st, too, but I wasn't able to watch)
Oh for sure. This game was lost by us not the officials. We had our chances plenty of times in regulation. It took a heroic effort from Harmon too to pull this out for Texas. As I said going into the game, yes I wanted the win BUT more importantly, just show they can compete with this type of team. Mission accomplished from that standpoint. Onto the much more important tournament.Exactly. we can whine all we want, but i have seen at least 5 lay ups that have been air balled. then we had a complete meltdown in the 3rd quarter on the press. that is like a 10-20 point swing. all on us.
this game probably swaps us with Texas in seeding. we will slide to 3 and they go to a two.
