Those graphics are nothing more than space eaters on a web page or ticker.

Because UConn is a wagon. Bueckers is awesome.

Nope. I haven't seen a single second of live basketball.

Because Paige Bueckers is the most talented woman’s player and UCONN has the GOAT woman’s basketball coach ever!

Iowa is shockingly small, white and unathletic for a #1 seed.

LSU only lost because Caitlyn Clark put on a masterclass in how basketball is supposed to be played.

LSU had chance after chance, offensive rebound after offensive rebound....because Iowa starts average sized white girls under the bucket...not Amazonian women like the other top teams.

Plus its THE BRAND, UConn....and its the greatest women's basketball coach of all-time. Bettors are gonna jump on Uconns line...because UConn will win comfortably. LSU just blew it.

I so hope you're wrong...I'll lose my school's March Madness competition if Iowa loses before the final.

UConn is good, but their main issue is depth.
I watched some of the game vs. Duke, and Bueckers got extremely fatigued, to the point that she wasn't able to have much impact late in the game.

LSU showed a strategy that can beat Iowa. Just don’t go cold on your own shooting and that strategy is sound.

Watch Paige Beuckers ESPY award speech. She's an insufferable pandering woke Rapinoe. But do as you please.

Don’t understand why LSU fans hate Iowa. Iowa gifted them the title last year by knocking off South Carolina and Iowa got trolled at the same time by Reese at the end of the game. Iowa beat LSU this year and did it with great class and sportsmanship. Makes zero sense.

Why is icon a #3 seed? They only lost 5 games.

So Iowa has to go through 3 teams ranked in the Top 10 final Coaches Poll but South Carolina gets a bracket of a #10 as a 2 seed...and a Final Four of a team not even ranked. When the fix is in, it's in.

agreed. How you can you not root for Caitlin? Blows my mind people even try to troll by saying she’s not the best wbb player they’ve ever seen. I never saw pistol pete play but from how I’ve heard him described, with the clinic she put on against lsu I would consider her the female pistol.

I knew about her range but not surprised she led the country in assists too after watching the lsu game. Those behind the back passes under the goal and no looks on drives were things of beauty
