I'm offended that they would beat someone this badly. Those girls are human beings and don't deserve that level of embarrassment.

They might as well be playing a high school team. There isn't enough talent to go around even a quarter of D1 WBB

They won by a score difference of ALMOST DOUBLE the amount of points that they gave up

I remember the NO Hornets losing a playoff game by a similar score.

I mean if women's basketball ever wants to be taken seriously they need to have better competition. This UCONN and two other teams being decent is stupid.

You ever been around D1 women’s players? Not being a dick just asking. The talent gap is disgusting. Women’s teams usually don’t have enough to beat a pick up team at their schools own rec center.

Not to the same level, but this does happen. I remember a Pitino coached UK team beat Tennessee in the SEC tourney 101-40.

Will never happen bc the men’s game will always be ahead of them. Don’t care if eventually women are catching lobs men by then will be throwing lobs off lobs or something.

Only off by a few points.


There is a bigger disparity certainly in WBB than men's, but there are losses in men's that are just as bad. Especially OOC games early in the season.

I think that was to the Lakers maybe and the hornets apologized to the fans after the game?

You said yourself not on the same level. The level of frequency that women's games are 30 point margins seems 10 fold that of the men's game. This is why I can't take anything about Geno Auriema being a great coach seriously. He may be a great coach, but I can't use anything he's done at UCONN to support that argument.

Yep when there are 20 players better than everyone else by a large margin and 6-7 are on 1 team most years coaching isn’t a major concern

Nuggets. Don’t remember if they apologized but they sure should have.

I mean they did win like 111 in a row or something. I guess there is some credit to give for at least managing 12 women to not hate each other for that long. But I can't even think of a good comparison. Maybe if Alabama had to play HS teams for 5 or 6 straight years with a "tough" game against Tulane every year would anyone consider Saban good? Because that's about how big the talent disparity is. Hell UK women can't even consistently hit open layups.

That 1 recruiting class produced the 1, 2, 3 picks in the draft. In a sport there 5 play at a time thats pretty disgusting
