Iowa Hawkeyes vs. South Carolina Gamecocks | NCAA Women's Final Four | Full Game Highlights 

Yes what a team Cizano is so under rated

@@davidd5712 Agreed! Both teams playing Hard and hustling too. It's clear Caitlin Clark not only has the belief of all of her teammates, but she has all the belief in them as well. The ball movement Iowa is working with is top notch.

That have good chemistry that's why

she also doesn't dribble!

Amazing hustle. Great at finishing on the roll

41 in back to back games

She gone have a hard time tomorrow

@@Lildraco_bbg she’ll do just fine. She embarrassed the best defense LSU won’t be that much harder of a challenge

@@CascadeSlim0119 right? Not sure why they’d think LSU would be a harder defensive match up than undefeated South Carolina that was probably bigger and faster at every position.

They couldn’t stop her she dropping buckets from anywhere on the court and that range damm

same. usually with womans games i change channels before the games over but this one was different

Ditto - I never watch women's hoops as I find it to be terrible, but Clark is on another level.

That’s awesome dude! Keep watching! The game is slowly improving and taking aspects from the NBA that make the product fun!

I know right. I was wait for it all week. It didn’t disappoint.

@@UnderbellyNZ if you had a daughter playing basketball in high school you wouldn’t say the same I bet

Yep, she is a triple threat.

Watching the last 2 seasons, the pick and roll of Monica and Caitlin has been on display for so many games. Glad the country is seeing what these two do better than any players in the country, men and women. A textbook teaching of how it is done. Of course it takes great hands and belief the ball will be placed perfectly to keep your roll smooth and in step sync to the basket. Monica never dribbles because the ball is put in the perfect spot for a one two step and then the soft layup. She hardly misses. Shoots close to 70%.

For real I told my dad exactly what was going to happen and it did, S.C. had no consistent jump shooter on the floor all game, if they would have had that I believe S.C. had this game hands down, but 22 and them Hawks handled business

Watching the highlights, I felt that the big center from SC should have played the rim protector role when Clark drove past her defender, rather than worry about staying near the free-throw line to guard Iowa's center.

That’s what coaching is for. SC coach should’ve planned for that

look at the game on sunday and find out

History of BB? Yea fkn right 😂

It’s a guy bro what you expect?

She played against guys in Washington DC. So that upped her game.

And no defense what so ever

Zia pretty much disappeared in the second half.

Zia had to be exhausted - supporting much of the game without A Boston, LSU’s lead player much of the time … As a Hawkeyes fan, I was impressed with Zia’s heart and talent and grit on the floor!!

you beat one sec one more sec team you will find out sunday who is that sec team is

Yes. They all did great. No losers out there!

@@user-ob5ek6jj5zfatigue. She was SC’s offense

Same here!

@@adamstommes6362 to both of you band wagon fans to bad you just started because those of us who know there has been countless great games played by a lot of teams especially over the last ten years. Caitlin is the best I have ever seen and I have been watching the woman play for 30+ years. But in saying that there have many more great players put on shows similar to what clark has done. I said similar not as great but great all the same so don't get your panties in a bunch for my wording.🙂

@@user-ob5ek6jj5z D1 hater

You’ll forget about it by next month

Greatest game played 5 inches off the floor in the planet for sure!

Clark is a very good and exciting player and I do not plan to miss her performance against LSU. However, all players have weaknesses. Clark's weakness is going to her left. About 85 or 90% of the time that she is forced to the left she passes. SC allowed her to go to her right and gave up several layups to her because of Clark's quickness. Actually, her 3 point shooting was not stellar in this game. I am surprised that Staley did not bring that to the attention of her players.

​@Cedric Perry she went to the left for a lot of layups

Guess what she still owned lmao

@@cperry7267ANBFPro So so wrong her favorite shot is the crossover to her left. So I don't know what you're talking about. Unless you mean dribbling to her left. Paige was on the Bird Taurasi show saying the same thing. Whenever they play her they cheat just a bit and take the crossover to the left away and make her go right. have to say it she really has no weakness to her offensive game. if anything she has always been known to not be a great defender. She added muscle this season to improve in that department.

she will find out sunday

I went to Auburn, and when I was there the women's team were 2nd in the NCAA 4 out of 5 years. I played pickup with them women a lot, and I have good skills. I am a 6'4" guy (played DIII basketball), and on Auburn women's team I could have started at shooting guard or small forward. I would've gotten CRUSHED inside, as center or power forward, as I am WAY too small. Even though their team was great, they had NO ONE who was even close in ability to Caitlin...NOWHERE close. She moves smoothly and effortlessly with the ball, and has the vision and passing ability like an NFL quarterback...AMAZING long-ball passes. Her long-distance skills were WAY better than most guys playing college basketball. The only guy I saw in person/played against (pickup) who could shoot more long distance, easily, was Chuck Persons. She could've started at shooting guard to the vast majority of guy's teams in today's college basketball (counting ALL the 4 year colleges, not just DI). She would be too slow to play point guard, and too small for small forward, but her shooting and passing is the key for the shooting guard position. We used to watch SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design), who was DIII. They had a girl as backup point guard, as they had no women's team (brand new school). Caitlin could've started at point guard, shooting guard or small forward for them, and they would've won a ton more games. When I played DIII, we played at GA Tech and lost by 4...we led almost the whole game. If Caitlin played for us, as shooting guard, we would have won, EASILY, and that is true even though there was no 3 point line (and no shot clock). Two of my grandparents were from Iowa (my parents went to Iowa State), and my Michigan grandparent went to Iowa, where his uncle was Professor of Physics at Iowa. He did field events for Iowa Track and Field and qualified for the US Olympic Trials, but didn't have the money to get there by train, so couldn't go. I also used to know the Iowa VB coach. Good to see Iowa showcased...

WNBA has stingier defensive rules and better defensive players. Not a very offensive league. Not sure why they do that, doesn’t seem good for the product.

It's def more entertaining.

can iowa beat lsu tigers i dont think so

@@stevenbergeron3659 a lot of people thought this same thing vs SC. They can beat anyone.

Dawn Staley got severely exposed by being out coached, there's Juco coaches out here who would of made the necessary adjustments with that huge lineup and destroyed Iowa. Dawn Staley had no clue on what to do,1st off why are you not taking the ball out of Caitlyn's hands with constant double teams instead of playing man. Carolina acts as if they did no scouting of Caitlyn cause if they did they would have forced her to her left where she's not effective. Then Dawn Staley is so simple minded that Iowa had 5 players guarding in the paint to stop the post players, and Staley consistently tried to force the ball into the bigs. Just plan assinine to the point she was yelling at her guards who were not covered at all, to force the ball into the paint and not to dare think about taking those open jumpshots. Even when the freshman guard hit a few 3 pointers on her on doing, you see Staley yelling at her on the next possession to pass the ball into the post instead shooting the open jumper. Dawn Staley and South Carolina won all those games by having a huge lineup not because of Staley's weak coaching efforts.

@@stevenbergeron3659 The actually have a better chance at beating LSU because LSU don't have a deep bench they play with 7 core players who have a tendency to get into foul trouble.

@@Vincere207 Yep, totally clueless. smh. Why do some people say she is "legendary?" I don't get it.

Yes she can!! 💛🖤

F Clark

Welcome to the bandwagon. I became a fan after the Indiana game.

She’s doing the same thing Steph did! She’s showing people that there’s A NEW WAY TO PLAY!

Definitely made me a fan for sure, I never knew of her until the elite 8 as I don’t watch women’s basketball but tonight she went crazy. Back to back 40 point games is historic, I hope she wins it allZ I’ll definitely be locked in on Sunday. She has that LEBRON effect when it comes to controlling and manipulating the game. She will be tough for years to come

That was the problem in the final basketball is a TEAM sport.

@@blackpuppy5645 obviously in this game basketball being a team sport didn’t seem to matter. Clark not only dominated their entire team, but she captivated the country. Something not even a South Carolina undefeated team could do…..nobody will ever remember LSU winning the championship.

I think Clark knows that basketball is the team sport, hence why she has so many assists. Remember, most of her triple doubles and double doubles have been ASSISTS.

Well said. Her competitiveness outweighs her ability if that's even possible.

Yes!! Instant classic

No doubt, I thought Iowa was finished with how hard they got outrebounded but it just didn’t matter

Def incredible

LMFAO.

There was literally a MILLION ways to compliment this game properly but you had to go way overboard lmao good to know you don't watch sports at all

Basic fundamentals. The pick and roll.

Indiana vs. Miami was a pretty incredible game as well 😅

​@The Art of 2nd Place yes that was a great game

Nah LSU game was better imo

Until they played L S U

@@the_one9801 this South Carolina team would’ve destroyed LSU like they did earlier that same season, SC was the best team, Iowa just played perfect. LSU was great too tho, definitely the 2nd best team. I hope we get South Carolina Iowa part 2 this year, they’re both in the final 4 right now as LSU just got beat to Iowa in a revenge game. I think SC beats Iowa this time tho, they’re the better team once again and the likelihood of Iowa beating that juggernaut again is slim, if they can somehow get past UConn first.

Dog she got me excited for these highlights. She pulling up from curry range with the season on the line

1000 percent only watch it to see how she balled. Low key she was dope to watch

I don't even watch college basketball that much, woman's not at all but I would definitely watch her she has me excited too and rooting for her

Already the best college girls basketball player ever will w be in wnva

WNBA

Yes she may not have the physical tools of a male but her talent or skill level what she can do with the body god gave her is astounding

Bro, same

Same here

You obviously don't watch sports. Insane comment.

nah fr, like this womens tournament, the skill level has been extremely high this year, like i've watched some of these players im like, "they would genuinely cook me", like this is more exciting for me to watch than the mens play, just the energy on the floor, like this is dope, i hope they can replicate this to the WNBA, i would love to see womens players get more recongnition

@ ZPL - Forget it ! The pendulum swings against men at the moment.When this all settles down, this trash will just blow away . . .

^^^This!

​@@theartof2ndplace237 yez um mazaaaaa

Pump your brakes now! Do you not see the gaps in the seating in this game? Women's basketball is sometimes good to look at 11 minute clip. Do you understand that they get more views on RU-vid than the actual Live games?

@@disguiseddv8ant486 What does that have to do with what he said? Your so blinded by your hate for women it’s crazy😂

@@emmanuelokoye3362 I don't hate women. I'm just pointing out that females are a group of boring individuals. Even women know that they're boring. Why do you think they're always following men. Why do you think that they're trying to force men to watch their games? They know that if men watches their games the women will follow.

Bruh no Aliyah Boston is still the best player in the nation Idgaf Clark defense is terrible you can’t be the best player in the nation if your only good offensively

@@wowthatssocrazy7920 Dude, do you have eyes? Did you just watch that game? South Carolina had the better team ... Iowa still won.

Clark is a awesome player but the game was rigged and I’m a Iowa fan but I’m telling u the truth it was rigged u watch the final 3 minutes and u can clearly see when South Carolina threw the ball away 3 times back to back down by 1 point and the girl from South Carolina had a smile on her face laughing 😂 come on man a final 4 and u laughing from turnovers nah it was design. For Iowa to win from start to end

​@@wowthatssocrazy7920 I think Boston's title got stolen Tonight

@@wowthatssocrazy7920Bruh I love Aliyah Boston but na Clark just proved she’s the best in the nation, there are levels to this and she’s on a completely different one

Me Too , Cedar Rapids Here .

Same man, I've never watched a game of women's basketball all the way through and me and my Dad were on the edge of our seats cheering the whole game! It was a great day for iowans

As a fellow Iowa fan I agree

Burlington, Iowa for me

@@SleepyWRLD999 Knoxville

Facts 😂

😂 you already know

Bruhhhh 👋

So what are y'all going with? 😅

Thinkin 250 on Iowa

First time I watched a whole game

caitlin is bringing casual viewership to newer heights.

@@madpicken Agreed she need a massive NIL deal she deserves the bag and she still around for two more years even though I think she will and should leave her Jr which is next year unless they dropping that before mentioned NIL deal she 100% deserves especially if she bring home the Chip💰🏆

@@yokoblitt2157 nah she won’t leave she’ll being making more from NIL than the wnba

@@skylermummert24 Hopefully, she is like I previously said before she needs a massive NIL deal so I hope she is getting paid but whatever her pay is now it needs to be triple that especially if she wins the nati

😂😂 if Iowa plays SC again Iowa will lose

@@TheAnswerWillleaveyou I agree. That’s essentially why I said Iowa wasn’t as good last year and certainly isn’t this year. SC was the best team the last 2 years but March is crazy, the best team doesn’t always win the championship with how wild March madness is. I think SC would win but SC isn’t as good as they were last year so Iowa has a better chance than last year.

@@Spacewalk11 SC is actually better than last year. More offensive players and still solid team defense. What the highlights don't show is the foul trouble their best player got in with 3 minutes in the game. Offensively they had to play through Zia Cook and their bigs were being hit with ticky-tack fouls. Iowa fans complained about the same thing in the championship game.

@@alberttate8198 Nah last years SC team was better. They put 5 girls in the top 25 of the draft, including 3 in the top 10. They’ll beat Iowa and win the championship this year, but they should’ve last season. I watched the game last year & some of those “fouls” on SC were ridiculous, Boston was bound to start cooking Iowa otherwise. SC is great this season, but I’d take last years team comfortably. Boston was a monster & would be their best player this year as well. I just hope Iowa keeps it close, I’m expecting a 12-15 point win for SC, but if Clark gets hot & gets some help from Martin & Stuelke they have a chance. I doubt Stuelke will do much against Cardoso though. Still can’t believe they beat SC last year even with the foul trouble, they were 15 points better than Iowa lol

@@Spacewalk11 I think South Carolina wins. Based on how they play this year, they have 3-4 players who can shot the 3, Kitts and Watkins are good alongside Cardosa. Defensively last year South Carolina was tough, that belt them from being blown out.

😂

They said SC would mop the floor with Caitlin Clark haha I bet they regret that

sc's only talent was having big centers.... iowa played team ball. what a win!

Hopefully, next time, Iowa will pay reparations before tipoff so that SC can feel comfortable playing against the white supremacists. They clearly weren't in a safe space.

Iowa’s playing modern NBA-style ball. South Carolina was playing early 2000s NBA ball. This was basically the 2018 Warriors vs the 2004 Pistons. No disrespect to Miss Boston & SC, but basketball is more fun when the game is MOVING!

Ive found that NCAAW basketball is somewhat enjoyable in general (and a good amount of these tournaments games being very enjoyable). What is the WNBA missing? Its such a difficult watch

These women play better than the men's teams

​@Graham Strouse I was thinking the same thing lol Iowa was playing a different game with a smaller team.

@187bronco187 🤣🤣

Only because the refs had a hard-on for her.

​@187bronco187 bro what he didn't even say anything about South carolina. And be real this was the equivalent of Bron beating the 2018 warriors by himself. SC was 11 point favorites. All we heard from fans is how SC's too big and too good for iowa to handle, and how Clark was gonna get locked up

@187bronco187 She broke a few ankles like the 96 Bulls.

Phenomenal game hopefully she can do it again Sunday . Go Hawkeyes.

L season

*WHITE GIRLS WIN!!! WHITE GIRL DROPS 40!* ✊✊✊

She's gonna bring a lot of fans to the WNBA, I bet she trash talks like Larry Bird and backs it up like he did too.

Caitlin is a one woman army!! She beat S.C. by herself.

@@philb.1502 By going 18 for 35? Sure, 'cause she was taking half the teams shots.

I have never seen more than a few elite nba hall of famers shoot and play as well s Caitlin. No one else has inspired better in the sport of college basketball, men or women in my opinion.

You must have watched very little basketball.

Agreed

@@madterps Aww you're still pissy about being here? So go.

@@madterps LOL

Agreed. Warnock’s rebound made me relax. Not until then did I think the deal was done.

nah this is cap rn

LMAO

Women aren't known for being lockdown defenders mainly great on offense

because South Carolina was the better team they just got outplayed

Yeah bc the negros were trying to bully her

I think it technically was I went into this thinking whoever won this game would go on to win the championship but I could be wrong lol

I went to Auburn, and when I was there the women's team were 2nd in the NCAA 4 out of 5 years. I played pickup with them women a lot, and I have good skills.

Any team with Caitlin Clark on it always has a chance...

I admit I didn't but I wanted to see them win

University of iowa sports (minus wrestling) thrive being the underdogs

After watching Clark take down my Hoosiers in the final Big 10 game I gave her a chance. She just keeps improving. Good coach too

@@davidd5712 What, who doesn't want to see the good team win!!! I rooted for Iowa and against "coach" (hahaha) Staley!!!

Then what happened with LSU? It's just a fuke that SC lost. It happens... I know that Iowa will not be back next year, unlike SC.

​@@MoormoresI love how mad you still are 😅

Ty!!

Thanks very much!

It's really this simple, isn't it? Iowa was the better team on this night.

Pure physicality seems to be why SC is so dominant, and certainly how they stayed in this game. They literally had twice as many rebounds as Iowa and more than 5 times the offensive rebounds. A team has to play at a very high skill level to beat them.

@Rob2068 I agree. South Carolina must develop elite level perimeter shooting. It was telling when Iowa left guards wide open and dared them to shoot.

that's exactly what happened; steph uses 2 or 3 screens to get free; i hardly saw any sets like that for Iowa. shame.

I find it difficult to understand why even a casual fan does not think that women can play basketball. No, there are no dunks, but basketball is about making the right pass, moving the ball, scoring however one can score, and team defense. The women excell at this.

@@cperry7267ANBFPro , you answered your own question. Their game is not exciting most of the time and they have to just rely on fundamentals. Sure they can play, it just isn't exciting to like even 90% of people. It is infact so unexciting to most WOMEN. WNBA teams can't sell out their biildings.

I’d rather watch women, grew up in a town with a dominant HS girls team and it’s always way more fast pace

Folks keep saying she's like Steph Curry. The way she backs up the attitude and dominates the game without superior athletic ability is more deserving of comparison to Larry Bird

@@johnspry8346 not sure how you could think she's not extremely athletic. She's the quickest player on the court and can create space pretty much whenever she wants. Not to mention crazy body control shooting 3s on the move.

​@@johnspry8346 stop curry the better comp Larry wasnt pulling from deep like her especially not in the playoffs

​@@johnspry8346 bro Larry bird could barely move. Caitlin Clark was running circles around the most athletic team in the country. She dribbles and attacks the basket exactly like curry

​@@johnspry8346Pistol Pete Maravich before his knees went bad.

But their women stupid do u say that about a man being compared to women

More like Stockton and Malone with the pick & roll because S. Carolina couldn’t stop it.

And Clark gives me me Curry vibes.

​@@mistercrockett Yeah Stockton Malone. Those pick and roll were devastating South Carolina..💪🎉

Yes but Clark is 95% of that. Makes everyone better. And she keeps getting better.

It's Iowa. Not Clark's team. The whole team played their heart out this game

Totally agree, she’s the star of the show

Shes setting records every day men or women

How did South Carolina go 36-0? Those "women" can't shoot. They're the women's equivalent of Houston. You have to be able to shoot the basketball to win. The SEC must be garbage.

@@Zenigundam the offensive rebounds and very large players that make it difficult to drive to the hoop

​@@madpicken sounds like more excuses.. "I'm oppressed" 😅

Why do they play with a smaller than normal basketball?

Carolina was INSANE on the offensive rebounds, it's what kept them in the game. Ironically, it was an Iowa offensive rebound that ICED the game.

caitlin snapped the 42 game winning streak. so happy to have put my money down on the +475 underdog

No she wont

She's so good. She dominated that game by herself against the #1 college team in the country.
