Way to go lady Gamecocks We knew you could do it.
Did not see the game. Not a BB fan. However, after coaching school age kids in multiple sports for years I fully expected Mississippi State to be flat for this game after their big win over UCONN. This is very typical performance for the first game after an emotional victory.
ReplyDeleteNot trying to detract from South Carolina, they still had to play their game.
Who cares it's women's basketball the real game is tonight.
