GAME THREAD: #3 seed MICHIGAN vs #10 S. Dakota (ESPN 2)
Just about time for the opening tip.
GO BLUE!
Great game! Let's go Ladies -- Win This One!
As long as a tackle isn’t a foul the rest of the way, “we should definitely win this one!”
Refs seem to be acting like it's a home game for red. We're still very sloppy on offense and that trap half court press is too slow and gave up a bunch of points
Nolan, it's time to stop shooting the ball and look for other ways to help the team win. Never mind, keep shooting.
Since the Iowa game on February 6 when she shot f for 6 from three, before tonight, Maddie Nolan had shot 14 for 46 from beyond the arc.
"There ya go, Matti Nolan!" Shooters gonna shoot!
That's HUGE! Get 34 another one.
Dunno why we're leaving Larkins
She's was so open, I thought she was a fan
NAZ TIME LG!!!! We win!!!
That girl shoots 25% all year and is 3-3 from 3 today. Kewl
sure, but 3 of their starters are 4-24, so we're getting it back in good ways.
Basically practice jumpers though.
Boisterous SD crowd making a hostile environment. Where’s the M crowd?
Allentown
Uh, that's us lol
They gotta run 21 off the arc. She's killing us.
Naz passes out of some of those encroaching double teams a little too quickly. She can still go to the hoop on them.
Just like that triple team she went to the hoop on brother?
Ice is slippery
Maddie shoots her normal percentage and this is fairly comfortable.
11% is not good. clutch time, she needs to make some shots.
Just like the men.
What kind of strategy is this for Naz to use energy guarding a few feet behind the 3 point line?
Naz has basically infinite energy. it is one of her many superpowers.
How can nobody in the team hit as wide open much out shot? Might as well triple team Naz every time.
So if three players sandwich you and hold you it’s, “not a foul!” Then you dive out of bounds and throw the ball back inbounds, with little to NO contact, “that is a foul?” Whew only Michigan, teams!!!
yeah, not sure how naz got beat up by 3 girls in a phone booth, but no call.
They’re mugging Naz all game with no calls, and then they whistle Michigan on a touch foul 30 feet from the basketball.
That was a moving screen.
Not sure how that was on Brown...
We're getting her so many good looks. :(
Sjerven's gone.
Sherbert is gone!
Ohhhhhhhhhh C'ya
SHE'S OUTTA THERE!!!
That's a really good player in the middle for SD, so it should open up Naz underneath.
Just like that!
What a pathetic sequence. Some really poor defensive coaching. Michigan continues to get abused by the backcourt trap, and they haven’t adjusted all game.
That's atrocious
That was a block
Terrible call on that blocking foul!
These refs suck
How are the refs falling for this shit!!?? Unbelievable
Man, that lead disappeared in a hurry...
BS charge call against Leigha
bad charge call at critical point. ouch.
Ref got caught up in the moment.
probably exactly that. a hard call in real time, can't be right 100% of the time. even officiating tonight, i'm sure the coyotes could point to some stuff that didn't get called, too.
South Dakota is trying to flip their way into the Elite 8
