CANT WAIT TO SEE CLARK VS BUEKERS NEXT 😤😤 !!!
college football clears
Paige gonna have her hands full and I say that with all the respect and 💐 in the world.
She gonna have to bring the buckets and the stops in order to keep that juggernaut at bay.
@@cedrickcarsonyou must not know who she is
These chics play no defense there getting easy looks to the basket no one challenge there shots
Forbes for usc is niceeee too fr
Despite the Loss Juju Had an All Time Great Freshman Season 🔥 She has nothing to be Ashamed of
YEAH YEAH WHATEVER.
@@giftcardbillfind traffic and play in it.
She should be ashamed of her efficiency but her fans will find a way to defend it regardless.
@@rc2788dude she’s a freshman. She can still get better.
@@rc2788don’t hate on her
NO ONE but UCONN fan’s thought this team could make a deep tournament run. It shows just how special this team is to battle through all the adversity and still believe that anything is possible. What an absolute masterclass coaching job by Geno, of all his many accomplishments this final four must feel especially sweet. Looking forward to an incredible game versus Iowa and Caitlin Clark.
I did.
Paige is top 2 in the nation
Both UConn programs will win it all
@@bootman7518 has that ever happened b4..?
You have exited reality
I sure didn't. Never thought much of Geno as a coach. They had no business beating USC tonight. Great Job
Paige Bueckers won National Player of the Year as a freshman, but all of you have been sleeping on her since she got injured.
She's literally talked about ALL THE TIME
@@FacundoCampazzo123not to the level of the Caitlins x Jujus x Angels. She mad underrated these days.
@@cedrickcarsonNah her speech at the ESPY's in 2021 officially ended her Great White Hope moment but she spoke her truth
No has slept on her lol
Great white hope,,,,,,I think it's all rigged for them! @@Robert-uc5pb
UConn plays like an army with everyone executing. Should be a good game vs Iowa.
Huskies will beat for experience player at this level, only the 3s will let lowa have a chance, but it depends on how they execute..and u UConn have a player that hit the 3s too, so one cant count out experience.
You know Iowa smashing UConn! Stop lol they are too deep
@@StudentOfLife365 Not sure if you are paying attention, but Iowa uses a 6-7 player rotation and only 3 players scored in double figures against LSU. If Caitlin doesn't go absolutely nuclear for 40+ in this game UConn wins.
Exactly !@@cobra7282
@@StudentOfLife365 you see the different is that LSU don't know the play zone, they all over play they could win the game easy if they know what they was doing, Reece is tall girl why she play up top and the guard get the pass they rush and not waiting for Reece to set, when Uconn play the u gonna see the different.killa off easy basketball u see Iowa live by the 3points so they gonna died by the 3point, see u can 3point straight to beat Uconn they have player hit the 3point too plus good zoning.
Hate watching Geno win and win but he’s really good at what he does. Out coached SC. And here we are.
I have been a hard core Uconn fan since the Bird and Taurassi days...I have said all season...never ever ever count out the Huskies...PB is the REAL deal....
Clark vs Paige must see!
nope, i rather watch college football
That’s a fact!! 🎥 🍿
Fits the espn narrative they pushin
a replay of what you just saw with USC, both USC and Iowa are high scoring teams, but lacking in defense that UCONN excels at!
Today the refs tried but failed to help USC, we'll see what happens with Iowa!
@@otinpotinpo once the NFL draft starts this is 💀
This year's Elite 8 got me questioning missing the college games. The men's side still is meh to me but the women's basketball has been producing some good games!
The men’s side of college basketball hasn’t been poppin since Zion to keep it 💯
@@cedrickcarson ok glad I’m not the only one that thinks that haha the ladies showing up!!
@@cedrickcarsonRight
Way more competitive
PAIGE IS DIFFERENT 🔥🔥🔥💪🏿, RESPECT TO JUJU THOUGH 💪🏿.
I love Paige and I think she is the best all around player in the league but I can't wait to see what Juju will do the next few years as long as she stays healthy!
Iowa vs UConn should be nationally televised on ABC Friday night, instead of ABC's normal network tripe...
All Final four games are aired on ABC
Proud of UConn women team. Best luck in final 4.
UConn was the better team. I've felt USC would get their comeuppance for not really playing a team game. It's the Juju and McKenzie show. It was fun while it lasted though.
Yeah, watching the Iowa game and then this it really stands out that USC kind of just runs at the basket a lot rather than breaking down a defense with ball movement.
Paige Boutta Run Women's Basketball next year and Then it's Juju's Turn for the Next 2 Years. Both Elite Buckets 🪣
Oof, Edwards getting tackled and thrown to the ground at 6:00, right in front of the ref, who completely ignored it, was hard to watch.
Then getting hit in the face on the way to the rim at 11:13, with no call. With a broken nose - oww.
Feels like after that she was like, "ok, so that's how it is with these refs? Fine, the gloves come off." And playing full contact tackle basketball from then on. I wish the refs would do their job.
Well played to UConn!
Refs don't favor UConn in the tournament, 3 yrs ago refs gave the bigger slower SC 20+ more foul shots against UConn in the final to let them win a close game!
Bueckers is definitely one of the best college ball players of all time. Her growth from a freshman to now has been major!
The Iowa vs UConn game should be EPIC 🏀
I like UCONN's poise in this game. The reason that I love Paige's game is because she will always take what you give her and make more of it. That is often what will happen to a player after an big time injury. Their game becomes multi-leveled because it has to.
I am glad paige recovered well from the injury it was exciting to watch juju and her play
Kim Mulkey should take a class from Geno. UConn made it tough for Juju! And they will make it tough for Caitlin definitely! LSU wanted to play offense vs offense which failed. UCOnn will challenge IOWA Offense with trap Defense.
That’s fine but South Carolina is going to be hard to beat if you can’t out rebound them you’re cooked
you're mind has so hate for Iowa that you think Clark doesn't have any brain to see that's going to be the case. If that's what UCONN's game plan, they'll definitely lose to Iowa, not Clark alone
@@mrolajerson0601 you seem to like to hate a lot? Did I say I'm rooting for UConn? I'm a casual that became interested to NCAAW because of CC. 😍 I'm just saying what UConn did right vs what LSU did wrong with their game plans.
@@bluemoonrpg326 SC plays defense like UCONN so it'll be a dogfight, and a great game if the refs stay out of it!
Iowa in for a long night against UConn if the refs don't help them!
@@mrolajerson0601 Iowa is nothing but Clark thats why she shoots 40 shots a game, when she plays against a weak defensive team on the 3 pt line, she scores!
Always been a Paige fan. Every since HS
That makes 2 of us
Win or lose JUJU up next good win for UConn though
THIS IS THE MOST HYPED AND BEST WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP I HAVE SEEN IN YEARS! THEY GOT THE WORLD WATCHING!
My first time actually watching a full women’s game! It’s actually impressive! Not going to lie
Been so many great games this year in women's ball.
facts same here. this game, and ESPECIALLY that LSU vs Iowa game. these ladies out here ballin like crazy. i can't wait to see them improve the WNBA in the years to come
the game was so close all the way till the last quarter.
Why are you surprised?
@@TorEtCetera me personally i'm surprised because i've watched a WNBA game before and it was dreadful. way too slow paced, not nearly enough effort or athleticism being shown, the field goal percentages were awfully low unless they decided to go for boring 2 handed layups with no contests for some reason. i just couldn't stand it. this new era is giving me what i was missing for certain.
Easily Geno Auriemma's best coaching job
If only UConn had its full roster on deck... If the entire team stays healthy next season, I don't see anyone stopping UConn from running the table.
You sound crazy. You don't know top recruits will be dying to go to SC? Dawn Staley isn't just running a sports program. She's running a family and that's what players want. How do you think she could lose her whole starting 5 from last year to be number one and undefeated this year? Pay attention 😊
@@Robert-uc5pb won't matter as UCONN will win it all next yr if they are healthy! The 6 hurt players make up a final 4 team!
@@bobbear4437 You don't know that with certainty. You have no idea what top HS prospects teams will recruit or get through the transfer portals....please stop. And if you don't think freshmen can come in and have an immediate impact, then you haven't seen Watkins,Booker, Fulwiley, Hidalgo, or Williams play. Again please stop. SC has 2 starting lineups with their starters and bench
@@Robert-uc5pbdo you think SC can beat Texas next season? I’m so nervous for that game.
@Sydney12997 I think they most definitely can beat Texas next year. SC depth is going to give them an advantage over alot of teams
So happy for Paige and Aliyaha!!! And i am a SC fan!!!! Good game ladies... thefuture looks bright in Southern California... great game JuJu and crew
Clarke vs Bueckers is gonna be good
Who's Clarke? 🤦
Paige is out making buckets and ruining parlays.
Unsure if anyone other than UConn fans expected this outcome but good for them... Hope they can keep this going up against Iowa.
absolutely not.. playing basically 5 the whole game
Geno looks like the Grandpa from Up the movie
Paige been on this stage too many times talent is one thing but experience is another Geno as well congrats to UConn going to be a great final 4
Clark vs Paige matchup???
Both flatter than toast
@@Rbdkekwnri45 what that gotta do with they game tho?
@@glorysakedon’t pay him any mind he’s just angry that his favorite didn’t won 😂
@@Rbdkekwnri45you’ve never felt the touch of a woman
@@Rbdkekwnri45 bruh go touch grass 😂😂
2 very highly entertaining Womens College Basketball games tonight for sure.
Amazing game. Never forget Paige. Juju is the future of NCAA though.
Geno out coached the USC head coach very badly that's why they won
It didn't hurt all the Uconn players were On Their Game, each one made critical shots that kept USC players demoralized, it took all UConn had though to beat JuJu an company, Fantastic Game!!!
Not sure what you are talking about out-coached-what tactical strategic decisions dungeon make that makes you say that?
Lookmuconn played their a game, their center is a monster, best shooting of the season-players who never shoot let alone make threes were making threes. They were are arguably are t better more experienced team.
@@johnwhite2576 Ummm, this is simply not true. UConn literally only had one player who doesn't make many threes hit one three last night. It wasn't some lucky shooting night that you are making it out to be. UConn won with sporadic play from their young players and rock solid performances by their 3 upperclassmen.
Forbes hit that 3 to tie the game at 59, then she chest bumped Page and screamed in her face while she was trying to get to the bench for the timeout. She poked the beast from the east, that never works out well, after that Page was lights out.
Three point stats: USC 23/70, UCONN 28/58. This made the difference
Uconn's been exceeding expectations big-time despite how depleted their team has been for most of this season. I'm stunned they made it this far in the NCAA tournament. I thought for sure USC would've taken them out in this game due to Uconn's lack of available players. Paige Bueckers is absolutely incredible.
I remember the days when UCONN was dominating Womens Basketball. They are undefeated and went for the record
Uconn stand up!!
WoW ...Iowa ... UConn .Final Four Media's gonna have A Frenzy With This .Gladiators Good Luck
Juju Watkins is what everyone thought Bronny would be.
Bronny might be a late bloomer
Bronny always catching strays everywhere bruh 💀
What an exciting NCAA tournament this year!
Paige has always been better than Kaitlin Clark, Van Lith, Reese since the team USA days she’s just always been injured. Glad to see her shine and put on for MN
@@amanrush7722 Shes not on another level 🤣 Caitlin is like Curry....unguardable, dangerous all over the paint. Bueckers is like Kobe, killer mentality, high IQ. Different sides of the same coin.
Way to keep my brackets great UCONN!!! I'm looking forward to seeing you defeat Iowa 🎉❤🎉
Great highline reel
What a game, Bueckers tho was on fire!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
UCONN kept USC off balance. Shows that experience is Key!
both of these teams look much better than lsu, and probably better than Iowa if Caitlyn isn't shooting absolutely lights out.
USC did not utilize JuJu enough in the beginning. I know its not how you start its how you finished but tempo setting is a real thing and can be a difference maker down the stretch. I felt that was the case here. JuJu didn't consistently get touches the first half and that cost them the game. Every time she touched the ball, they scored.
Juju shot 9 for 25, didn't score every time!
the box score sez otherwise
Great Game salute to the women!🔥
Womens college basketball is way better then wnba games
Juju just a freshman , but she’ll learn that in some cases , she has to demand the ball and will her team to a victory.
Bingo. She’s going to be a problem if she returns next year.
Can't demand the ball when the other players are just as good better or more experienced.
@@dehowrd9956she’s the best player in Tht line up & it showed clearly , every time she touched the ball they scored when she didn’t they struggled & tht cost them the game
yea you dont watch her play obviously lmao. The offense is literally ran thru her but shes just to unselfish at times as most freshman are. cornball @@dehowrd9956
she shot 9 for 25, not exactly stellar shooting
Great game
Good plays and fun they were playing well with the basketball 🏀
Watkins looking efficient on the highlights but in reality she was 9/29 😂😂😂
Over-rated ....
USC forgot to watch Love and Basketball before the game.😂😂 Gino does it again.
Awesome battle
If Paige didn't have back to back Acl injuries she would be up there or better then Clark rn
Paige was better. She was National Player of the Year as a freshman. They came out of high school the same year. Didnt realize Paige tore her ACL twice
Has Caitlin beat Paige?? I can't remember, but I don't think so.
Ez
@@queenredfromthequeencityUConn has beat Iowa all the times they met
@@mongoslade277she literally didn’t idk what that guy is talking about, she had two knee injuries but only 1 was acl (last year)
Hmmm, who did the court paint? On the left side the light color doesn't cover the arc properly.
Assuming that South Carolina beats NC State (which should be a breeze) then wouldn't it be something if UConn knocks off all three #1 seeds left in the tournament....USC, Iowa & SC!!! What a story that would be with 8 available players. I'm not saying that it will happen but how cool would that be!
Amazing game
Lmao she start droppin it at the end! That’s still a classic video!
U CONN is very good at clock⏰ management when it's time to use it .☝️🧐
Wow! Great game! Juju and Paige came as advertised. Congrats UCONN.
It is very upsetting seeing the difference in distance the 3 point line is now that they “corrected” it
10:47 that "AND ONE" was perfect
UConn going for three peat mens/women's championships the same year. Hey UConn women, show Ms. Clark why 5 star athletes play ball in Storrs, CT. Please. Remind them!
Bueckers´ game reminds me of old-school Kobe
Kobe never passed like Paige.
Elite ballers makes it enjoyable!! Paige and Juju WOW!!❤❤❤ Awesome Tournament.
Thanks for not spoiling the winner in the thumbnail!
Even though USC lost. The TROJANS WILL ALWAYS BE MY TEAM ALL OF THE TIMES NO MATTER WHAT POINT, BLANK, AND PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO USC, GO USC, GO USC ALL TIMES PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU ALL TROJANS FOR ALL TIMES, AND FOREVERMORE THROUGH GOOD TIMES AND BAD, HIGHS, AND LOWS FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
UConn made USC play defense… while UConn played less defense but overall I’ve been enjoying watching this tournament! Straight talent!!!
I haven’t seen women basketball this exciting ever…
First time watching a women’s college basketball game and it was exciting Forbes and Paige played really great
Uconn is going to win it all. They have a all around great team.
Lmao. They got played with by SC like a cat and mouse. They really don't want to see NC State. You better take notice
I think juju can improve her understanding of angles positioning and spacing, shes talented for sure but those fundamentals need work.
Rather have Paige than Caitlyn Clark. Her game is complete & she just doesn't toss up 15 3 pointers a game.
I hate that 1 1/2 years was robbed from her career due to injury. Hope she comes back next season
She’s coming back for her fifth year
@@EsperanzaHernandez-wi4vyWhy not. She'll have a chance to play with her friend Azzi and earn more in NIL.
Ayo Juju Watkins is Tuff Yall🔥🔥, Fav Player to watch in College ONG!!
L
I appreciate how the ref made these girls play through a lot of calls.
Glad Qadence Samuels on UConn got some playing time.
I like this match more than LSU vs IOWA match because there is no big gap in points between the two teams and it was so competitive and to the last quarter you don’t know how is going to win
But in LSU vs IOWA ,LSU team have problem in shooting they miss a lot of opportunities 💔
Klark vs bueckers i like it
Juju wow
So North Carolina State and UConn men & women's basketball teams made it to the final 4.
I love my huskiesssss forever😭
Waiting now for Clark and Bueckers ...... this out to be GOOD!
These women showed out. Props to Juju and Paige for putting on a show!
UCONN was very sloppy this game and made a ton of mistakes. They cannot try and pull this on Iowa or else Clark will take advantage. They need to be more cautious to do better. Hopefully they do well next game as this has been an amazing run
U act like juju wasn't on the other side. They won. Good game regardless what you talking about. USC is just as good as lsu or Iowa. Hence the number 1 rank
@@dehowrd9956 This is simply not true and completely overlooks things like experience. Both LSU and Iowa have a ton of experience in big games and USC simply doesn't. Also while Juju is very talented, her game is nowhere near as polished as players like Caitlin and Angel.
@@dehowrd9956 In no way did I say USC wasn't a good team. I'm saying UCONN got very lucky against USC and made lots of mistakes. Had Paige and Edwards not clutched up USC would have won, as they are objectivley the better team
I had no idea women's basketball was like this. I'm sorry... I didn't know!
😃
Juju had to work for them buckets, UConn looks really good with Edwards inside
After watching both the LSU game and this one, it’s safe to say UConn is going to win. UConn’s defense against Juju, trapping her every time on ball screens, and Paige denying her the ball, was phenomenal. Clark walked into threes the whole game with no pressure on screens, which made the game very comfortable for her. It’s going to be a fun game to watch and Caitlin will get her 25, but UConn will win it and Paige will have the more efficient game
lol
I put voodoo curse on Kaitlyn like I do ju ju you wait and see.
Juju is Caitlin. And you must have been watching something other than LSU vs Iowa. Clark walked into few, if any, 3s.
@@MrGeneric2011 Caitlin scored 25 on 9-24 shooting in the meeting last year. I think she will likely do a little better this time around, but it's clear that UConn has a blueprint for slowing her down. If they can in fact slow her down they will almost certainly win.

Good game. JuJu Watson will hopefully get better at sharing the ball. And officiating hopefully do the same with sharing the calls.
I'm not calling her a bad player at all, but if Juju wants to be ELITE she has got to start shooting more efficiently! you can't be in the 30% range every game... yes, she's scoring points still but a lot of it is free throws...
Poor coaching from USC. Auriemma wins because he knows how to coach.
Juju is such an amazing talent she got that Devin Booker handle and footwork
Go huskies❤
every time a shot goes up both teams stand and watch?? why not boxing out and working to get ina better postion for the board. they all just freeze until its clearly not going in
It's the one thing I constantly yell at the screen about. With every bball game I watch lol....
JuJu is so smooth! She doesn't run she glides 😂
UCONNNNNN ❤❤❤
Iowa vs UConn just gonna be chucking threes all game😂
