I love Monika's shrug at the journalist's attempt at her last name 😂
Lol I’m glad I’m not the only one who caught that
@Ross Bittner, lol...me too. You would think after 5 YEARS they'd know her name by now!!!
They have a lot to be proud of and have made many fans along the way. Congratulations to what this team has accomplished.
The champions of life
Monica's a trooper here, even the coach was choking up.
Gotta say, she held it together well. Very impressive.
Fell in Love,with their team play over the last 4 games, Caitlyn was lights out awesome, champions of life for sure, 💎💎💎💎💎⚡💙💙💙💙💙✌️🙏☝️💪🎯👍 , made a West guy an Iowa Hawkeye...
Coming from a LSU fan, Iowa had an awesome season!
Thank you an actual lsu fan who’s showing love
Thank you, David (from Des Moines) ...Today, LSU Rocked The House. Angel Reese and Jasmine Carson were unstoppable! LUV LA!! Fun Festivals, Great Food, and Kind, Gracious People!! Louisiana ROCKS!! 🤠
I’m a Gamecock fan. South Carolina born and bred; however, I can give credit when credit is due. Congrats, Hawkeyes. You all are excellent and made the Final Four a nail biter! Thanks for what you’ve done for Women’s Basketball!
Iowa had the best player, LSU had the best team. Incredible performance by both teams!! These girls are making women's basketball more watchable than it's ever been, and it's only going to go up from here!
Nah Reese was the best player. Caitlyn is amazing but she ain't better than Angel.
@@andrem.thomas332 i respect Reese's game, but Clark is a way better all around player. She can shoot anywhere plus the elite assist/passing. LSU won because Carson went off today and imo she was the game's mvp. Too bad that game was ruined by the awful officiating
@Andre M. Thomas Uhhhh… no. Clark was definitely player of the day, and the season. LSU was as a team a lot better, and decisively won because of it.
@@andrem.thomas332 not even close
@@andrem.thomas332 gtfoh Caitlin Clark is gonna be a superstar in the wnba Reese good but she’ll be average in the league she’s no where near as good as Clark
Runner-up and A Regional Title. LSU played one of their best games all season at the best time. So proud of these ladies! What a fun season!
Coach Bluder is a class act, shows depth of character, and is obviously an outstandingly effective coach.
Lol no she's not..how are people talking about LSU had no class but bludder didn't shake any hand after the game either. Not to mention she said her plan on the fourth quarter was to "go to Caitlyn and that's all they can do". No coach should depend on one player
Caitlin, Monica and our beloved Hawkeyes: What can I say? For many of us ex-Hawkeyes (I was there 1980-86), even though we have had many exciting highs, mostly in football and wrestling- your unbelievable group of BB wizards has simply got us absolutely riveted watching your spellbinding performances- week after week. How can we forget your winning the Big 10 tournament, and your unmatched run to the NCAA championship! Your achievements were almost unbelievable at times. Caitlin- I tell friends I have hardly seen any other player, men or women, perform pure wizardry on the BB court like you did almost effortlessly. You have given Hawkeyes moments of absolute ecstasy throughout the season; I began watching BB at college level after quite a while only spurred by your extraordinary performances. Despite the letdown of finishing one game short- we are genuinely proud of each of you, including of course Coach Bluder and the others who have raised Hawkeye women’s BB to the stratosphere. Congratulations, and continued success!
Caitlin, you and the rest of the Hawkeyes didn't come up one win short... You made it to the National Championship Game!... A glass raised to you and everyone in the program.

Just circling different comment sections to troll. Well done.
👧🏀 Iowa was to soft for these LSU Hood Rats. Clark is going to dominate an will be unstoppable in the WNBA for sure.
@@Tony-Tiger1970 that’s what happens when Iowa trailer trash clash with lsu “hood rats”
Such a losing whiner . Can’t stand Clark .
This press conference sums up everything I love about sports. The togetherness, playing for something bigger than yourselves, representing your school and state. Not chasing social media fame for 10 seconds of glory. They may not get a ring, trophy, or the title of champions, but they certainly get everything else associated with being one. Will certainly remember this group until the day I die.
Champions are immortal lol great game by 2 great teams. Somebody had to lose
@@TerranceHudon They’ll be immortal to Iowa fans that’s for sure.
It's funny how when ppl lose and they seem humble everyone forgets how they act when they win .
I was going for LSU this game but I have a lot of respect for Iowa! Catlyn I respect you and the Iowa team. Women college basketball gave fans a show! I was on edge of my seat SC and this championship game. Keep your head up Catlyn I’m a fan. Great job Iowa!
A LSU fan here BUT Iowa is a great team filled with character, poise, and talent…thank you all for a great season.
Coach Bluder has a world of integrity. The responses by her Mon and Caitlin are a testament of her coach. They all took the high road in the post game. Winners and losers alike should take note of Iowa’s character.
Bluder walked off and didn't say congratulations or shake one hand after
Ladies you brought so many new eyes to the game of Women's Basketball! You make us all so very proud!
Great basketball, great character, and both sides have done tremendous for themselves and each other! Huge win for women's ball, no doubt.
Great character ??? what game were you watching ??? Most folks I've talked to think the way the game was officiated, set the game back 5 years.
@@TheTuckster123 examine your biases.
@@TheTuckster123the refs called alot of fouls on both sides but that still didn't take LSUs mindset out . When the starters were on the bench the other girls came in and did awesome.. they didn't let the officials bring them down😊
The class shown by these women in a loss interview is more impressive than their abilities on the court
The exhibition of a fantastic coach that teaches the right things on and off court. And the upbringing of these young ladies. Their parents and Iowa fans as a whole should be so proud of their team.
Lol...is that a Compliment...ugghh
Sure it is!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@jasondavis8740 yes he just didint word it too well
Huh? 😂😂
So well spoken on both parts. In my late 60s now I have to confess I have never watched a womens final four before. But this one was amazing and largely because of the play and character of the women like these two ladies.
Buckeye fan here. Stay proud and classy Iowa had a blast watching u all in the tournament. Congrats to LSU.
Congratulations on both teams making it to the National Championship game and yeah y’all came up short but y’all didn’t give up and Congratulations to LSU on the big WIN today
As a LSU fan want to say Clark a future HoF and was like seeing a super human play she kept this game close for so long and did everything she could
Iowa was a step in the right direction for women's ball. Never had so much fun with Iowa these last week!!
We love you caitlin ,im a life long iowan who never cared about women's basketball till i heard about you. Much love and respect. You are the goat and the fact ur from iowa makes it better. My wrestling coach had ties to ur grandfather and Dowling. Cool to me. Congratulations Iowa Women.
Proud of all of you. Great season. Making it to the National Championship is a major accomplishment. You have moved Women's Basketball in the Right Direction. Caitlin, I know you will have a Great Legacy. Cheers to your coach as well.
Such integrity and class! So proud of Iowa! ❤️
The girls do talk trash but it's done most of he time the game is going on,don't think that she should have follow her around after the game was over taunting her. My oplnion
Caitlin has and shows so much class!!!
czinano, shes so amazing and she will be missed in this league, this is coming from an UConn fan. 😢
She's Cocky
So proud of this team and what they have given to women’s basketball, to the state of Iowa, and to all those young dreamers who will continue the legacy they have begun
So thankful for their humbleness! Love this team!
Well what else can u be in a loss
S/o to Coach Lisa keep doing great things . Very humble and great person💛🖤
Iowa Hawkeyes rock great class and dignity Catlin you rock got a fan out of me
how did you become a fan when Clark was classless though?
@@pokejammerz you’re thinking of Reese, Clark was nothing but humble and respectful throughout the game
Great season to the Law firm of Clark and Czinano and the rest of the Hawks! More people tuned into womens basketball this season for your performance this year as well as the past couple seasons! The NCAA should thank you guys(girls) for all the fan participation!!! Atta Girls!!!
I haven’t seen the ncaa tourney since 2013. I finally did because of her!
These student athletes are representing really well, especially after a tough loss! Caitlin's amazing skill had me tuning in to see what she was going to do next!
Story of the game was Carson. A person who was having a horrible tournament and the single reason that LSU jumped to a huge league.
Yes , Carson blew the roof off the building . Very timely performance when foul slowed several stars.
@@CarlBriggs25exactly
The pick and roll has never been better demonstrated than these two did in each of the games that I have seen. Both are great athletes and made for much excitement. Best wishes for both your futures which should be very bright. Thanks
czinano's footwork in the post is some of the best I've seen (men or women).
Congratulations Hawkeyes! You have nothing to be ashamed of. Great season.
Caitlin Clark…what an amazing role model. Humble. Generational talent. ❤
Yes, indeed - I hope her and Angel play together for Team USA
@@donte23mj That’d be amazing 😂
A loser who cares
Athletes are not meant to be role models....I hate when people put that on them....The role models should be the person taking care of the kids in the house and or people they see in the neighborhood on the daily...Not someone they watch on tv
@@JustinSampsonSr Sir, you can have a lot of role models and mentors, which can be a variety of people you know or don’t know. Calm down. It’s okay.
*Congratulations Iowa, making it to the national championship is a great accomplishment! You girls had a great year and made women’s basketball more popular!! I’ve watched the LSU, Iowa and Utah women’s basketball teams play more than any other team this season. Congratulations to Kim Mulkey and LSU!*
Love these gals! Funnest ride in sports in a long time. Congratulations to LSU.
this team brought me so much joy. i love Caitlin and monica so much❤️
So impressed by the composure, maturity, perspective, and intelligence of these athletes. They are woman of great character. Excited to see what the future has in store for them.
This Iowa team made me love ❤️ Women 's game that more . Thank you so much .Go Caitlin Clark and whole squad !!!!!!!!! We are so proud of the whole team !!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤They need to pick up a tall players for 23 /24 season. Thank you so much ♥️ 💓 💗
Can't wait till he goes into the NBA...🤣
An amazing postgame interview by the players and coach. Lots of integrity and class. This is coming from someone who rooted for LSU.
Congratulations on a amazing year of basketball 🏀 great season, amazing game,❤your all amazing.
Refs had the best team tonight. They won the game. Congrats to LSU. Congrats to Iowa. I believe we could replay this game over and over and each time the other team would win. The difference was the Early 3s.
The early 8 fouls didnt help their case either
Stop crying, so spoiled, get over yourselves geez 😂 SC didn't do all of this crying take loss, it was a Team that won tonight not just one player that comes along once in a lifetime for yall, so entitled people wow!
I agree about the 3s. The team relied on one person to shoot the 3 and not play as a whole team and that's why they lost.
At 6 minute mark, the reporter spoke truth. Saying the officiating "wasn't great" is the understatement of all time...."37 fouls called is an NCAA tournament record".
They need to get other jobs.
Agreed. The refs ruined a potential classic.
Sports is all about those rare, great moments...and today, the refs deliberately prevented any chance of one happening today. Shame on them.
This is why LSU won in my opinion.
@@mikejohnson7225 refs really ruined the game. Bad for the sport In general. They need to be fired ASAP
The officiating WAS
H O R R I F I C
MAy God bless these wonderful young women. We are so proud of you and how you represent the state of Iowa.
Great game and great season! Congratulations on making it to the Championship final game!
Caitlin Clark was the 1st player to remind me of Steph Curry since....Steph Curry. Heart-rending loss, but the Iowa ladies have nothing to hang their heads about. Phenomenal run. As Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard once said, in sports, you always risk experiencing the lows. But it's worth it just for the chance to experience the highs.
This team is inspirational. Thank you for an exciting tournament.
Both teams were impressive. Really amazing seeing girls play like that.
Can't say LSU was impressive. Like Caitlin said, they play the right way whereas LSU not so much.
@@overcomer1222 the right way is having Caitlin score all of the points and take most of the shots?? LSU won with like 4 people in double figures in a Women’s College basketball game. Just say you’re a sore loser.
@@overcomer1222 ??? Jasmine carson??
@@overcomer1222how was LSU not impressive? You think Iowa was impressive, but were turning the ball over back to back?
I grew up in Iowa, and I'm a huge WNBA fan. You made me so proud this year. This Iowa Hawkeye women's basketball team has no reason to feel that you failed. You were really exciting this year. I never watch college basketball, or I didn't until this year. I hope this big season turns into great freshmen players joining you for next season. Don't stop working to get better. When you win next year it will be even sweeter because of the way that you feel right now. I urge you to write a letter to yourself, be detailed and talk about what you are feeling right now. Then, end the letter with your goals for your personal growth for next year. > Then let it go and release the emotions for tonight and and maybe tomorrow and the week ahead. The best thing you can do is not pick up a basketball for two weeks, maybe 3. You will know what you need. Then get stronger and work on your specific goals. When you are back together as a team next season, remember the steps you have to take to get where you are today. Then get even better. Push yourself, lift your teammates, You will be National Champions in 2024.
🗣Great season Iowa👍🏿! Nothing to hold their heads down about... formidable opponents👏🏿!
I haven’t watched much women’s college basketball since the Cheryl Miller days (yeah, it’s been that long).
That being said, this game caught my attention and I’m glad I watched it.
I can see why the ratings were so high.
Done with humility and grace. Nice.
Props to the senior who answered that question. Respect Respect. Don’t ever blame anyone for your failures or loses. Take it like a woman or man. Which she did. LSU won the game. Please don’t blame the Ref interviewer please
We didnt outlast them but we did outclass them. Very proud of these Iowa girls and coaches!
Thank you Coach Bluder and the whole team for bringing us so much to be proud of and to look forward to!! God bless.
Can someone tell me why the NCAA will not allow coaches to speak their minds. You can clearly see Coach wanted to comment on the officiating.
Iowa girls are surely a class act that’s a win in my book👍
LSU was just super hot shooting. The LSU kid that came off bench with 20+ pts was the difference.
Great coach, congratulations Iowa🎉
Great team great ppl. Worst ref’ing in history, absolutely shameful and they shouldn’t be on a court at this level. Get it together NCAA!
These are CLASS individuals. I hope we see them next year with a different result.
Thanks for putting the spot light on women's basketball, you gained a fan for life this year .
Me too - and this coming from an LSU fan
Classy bunch of women! No excuses, no whining like South Carolina. I didn't watch a game all year long, this was better than I expected and I hope that Iowa gets another shot next year
SC didnt whine… Clark is classless
@JeSko TV look at Staley try to bring race into the game, go and check it out
So she blamed them losing on race, or did she call out the media for criticizing her team for things that predominantly white teams get away with? Big difference.
Classy Iowa coach
Great year for Iowa (not a fan). A lot of great players who were a threat at the three point line.
This team advanced women’s basketball into creating an interest with people who had no interest before.
By far the Best Women's Basketball I have ever seen! 🥳🥳🥳👏👏👏🙌
Great season Iowa!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You made Iowa so proud!
Loved Iowa’s Class after the game
What else would they show? Have you seen how she acts after a win? Or while winning? This is called being humbled
Indiana fan here, all class Iowa!
Class. Super admirable class. Young ladies, THANK YOU!
Thanks! Iowa Hawkeyes For The Great Basketball Season! The Lady Hawks Will Soar & Fly High In Fall 2023-24
Congrats to you from a SC fan! Good luck!
Caitlin a class act. Will be watching Iowa next year.
And that ladies and gentlemen is how you show class. Great season to the Iowa Hawkeyes!
Mrs. Clark will be back and will learn from this. It will make her more determined to win it all in 2024.
Agreed! She will win next year
She is a beast on the parque , hope she achieves that goal for next year,, ace of 💎s queen of 💜s Sweetie... ✌️🙏☝️💪🤔
For that to be true she has to do more than just shoot the ball. The whole team is just waiting on her to shoot the 3. She didn't drive the ball to the basket not one time for the entire game and you can't win a game that way. LSU played together as a whole team and that's why they won.
What a great group of young ladies. They have a lot to be proud of.
In ‘68, i temp coached a girl’s Elem school team in NOVA. TWO-dribbles and pass, were the rules.
Seeing the play that rivals the men…YOU’VE COME A LONG WAY LADIES! …Ain’t no more callin’ ‘em ‘baby!)
Such a great great show of TEAM and skill from both women’s teams this tourney.
Great job definitely should be proud of yourselves y’all will get it next year .
Much respect to the Iowa Hawkeyes, I enjoy the way you play the game. Monica is well respected by Coach Geno Auriemma, raves about how Monica plays the game, and as a UCONN fan I agree.......
Caitlin Clark keep your head up you are a amazing player and amazing role model to young kids. You have Good sportsmanship 😊
You are the BEST and have the BEST ladies! Be proud of the class and dignity you showed! GO HAWKS
when the game plan was let them shoot and it turns out they can actually shoot lol. Great championship game. Caitlyn made some tough buckets. foul count 19 LSU - 20 Iowa free-throws 20 LSU -21Iowa stop the narrative of the refs. LSU had two stars benched the second quarter. Could the refs let them play more yes but that was a physical game we saw elbows from both sides go uncalled.
Also, don't let the media play the blame game. The Refs did their job. Had Iowa won , this wouldn't be an issue. Be classy.
Total Respect and Love to The University of Iowa and especially the Women's Basketball Program.
True class shown, after a tuff loss!
Be very proud of yourselves Hawkeyes. You did a wonderful job. You are a wonderful woman.
First time I’ve ever been interested in women’s basketball. Amazing job Hawks!
Why?…Oh, never mind.
@@tgreene4357 you know why🤣🤣
Great game! So impressed with these athletes.
Me, too. Yes, it was a great game! This season will go down as one of Iowa women's finest... so far. 😊 It will be interesting to see how their season affects Iowa's recruitment outcome in the years to come. So proud of our Hawks! 🦅🏀
Despite the loss, Caitlin's run to the championship game with this Iowa squad was one for the ages. Iowa actually played pretty well, but LSU was on fire today! Reminded me of Larry Bird's Indiana State vs Michigan State
translation: i am a racist...
@@msp5138 that’s a very inappropriate comment on your part. Let’s celebrate Iowa for their great season and congratulate LSU for the win.
@@msp5138huh
She was something else. I never new woman could play this good. Pretty amazing to watch the highlights and see so many 3 pointers from both sides.
Great job all season go Iowa
When you lose all you have is class🎉. Great game both teams .
Great game Iowa,very competitive team!!! Officiating was great and very tight!!!🤗🏀🏀
Well Iowa's Head Coach made this statement. In her post game interview after winning against South Carolina..WELL I GUESS NOBODY WON IN VEGAS TONIGHT OR ANYWHERE. BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T THINK WE WOULD WIN AGAINT SOUTH CAROLINA. Well Coach your statement can be applied to you and your team. BECAUSE NOBODY WON IN VEGAS TODAY. BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT YOUR TEAM WOULD WIN AGAINST LSU..
Incredibly classy. Iowa proud!
Classy. In high school, I was coached by women who didnt have the privilege of competing at the state level b/c Title IX hadn’t happened fast enough for them. I live within 15 minutes of a top ten women’s team and the arena never sells outs. But Iowa? Iowa sets a standard for love of the game that is good for us all. Thank you for such a terrific season, series, and all the entertainment that accompanies it. I know, having coached 9-10 year olds and junior high girls that having a standard to look up to can make all the difference. Thank you.
Truth
Well said, ladies. God bless!!!
