I knew madison booker was a killer. Audi crooks just made me a fan.🔥💯
I'm Very Impressed By Texas Longhorns' Defense, And Scoring Ability. 💯💯
Audi Crooks is no joke. That young lady is going to be serious force the next few years.
Glad we dont have to deal with her in conference anymore. Shes a force!
New Madison Booker fan here
When you can impress Sheryl Swoops enough to say "That girl is good yall" about Madison Booker, you know shes special🤘
*Audi Crook and Madison Booker are some more elite talent that's apart of this legendary freshman class.*
We are in the presence of Royalty 👑
She said Booker's game looks better in person than on tv which is off.. her game will never dazzle with flash. Just consistent greatness you can set your clock to like Tim Duncan
Are you doing Tthe tournament Hiligjts because the highlight of. This channel are the only ones I can watch.
Why 11 and 13 for Iowa state not feeding the post in the first half
Emily Ryan holds the ball way too much
@@Ry-wo2cg yea way to muchhh
They couldn't establish control of the ball till the second half, by then Booker was already on fire.
Longhorn fan here but must come to Ryan’s defense. She is a great PG. She could not get the ball inside due to the smothering defense of Texas, particularly Shay Holle who was on the Big 12 All Défensive team. Texas is a great defensive team and that first half was some of the best defense I’ve seen them play all year. Iowa State is a very good team and will be a problem in the NCAA tournament and for years to come in the Big 12.
Iowa state was no match 😭 it was over from the start fr
