SC threw everything at her. She was exhausted at the end, missed her last 4 3 point shots, had turnovers, and still lit it up & won. The heart of a champion. And breaking records almost every night.
was she a champion?
@@lebronjamesharden3958 Ask SC, Louisville, Georgia
@@wymple09 she hasn't won any championship dummy
I know whose not a champion this year...South Carolina
Cook was amazing though..Cook vs Clark tonight...they shut Boston down
Love her game and her attitude! One of the best post game interview. Giving credit to her teammates, the school, the coaches and etc.
Post game interview was delivered like a pro!
Yeah so classy. She should be a case study for how to be humble and modest in victory. She even gave props to the other team and coach.
@@dsirtonski Caitlin Clark is a great player but the way Caitlin was praised for her trash talk and Angel demonised for doing the same was yet another example of racism based double standards from white peoples. Whenever white folks are given an opportunity to be decent aka not racist they fail.
One factor that is often overlooked; this girl has tremendous conditioning, she runs so hard, so fast, and so often, she never slows down.
She's like Steph Curry in that regard. Generational player.
If you play like Curry, better have conditioning like Curry. She’s definitely a generational player. Very exciting to watch.
yeah you can tell - 6 feet tall total bean poll. All she does is run.
@@HenryTechBoyI don’t even think Steph uses as much energy as she does it’s like this girl has energizer batteries that never go dead 😂😂
Forget about battery, Caitlin probably has a mini nuclear reactor inside her.
Definitely a new fan of her! She was letting it fly all game! 🔥
So bandwagoner? Shame
welcome aboard shes collecting fans😀
Fam how are you just getting to know lady curry
@@iinspireNP 🤓
@@TheMoefiggaz Mr curry
She' special, man. Her on the court performance coupled with a post game interview in which she loves on her teammates, coach, and fans in such a genuine and articulate manner is something special. she's not only athletically gifted, but also intellectually gifted
You’re just now realizing that? ☺️❤️
A special man is right
She’s a breath of fresh air. Not a selfish word out of her mouth even though she could arguably justify doing so.
Yeah true but that's not who she is. That's what even makes her even more special.
That girl can ball. Iowa looked the better team the whole game. South Carolina looked tight. Iowa played freely. Great game. Great for women's college basketball.
Amazing woman. Gives a lot of credit to her teammates and coaches. Very selfless yet an unbelievable player. Go Hawks!
She forgot to thank the refs
Champions rise to the occasion
I don’t see how you can say … SC wasn’t even called for any fouls in 4th Q until there was like 3 minutes left … And they called two weak calls out of no where on Iowa’s Warnock during the last 2-3 minutes or so of the game . . .
@@cedricbattle9829 Really? Go back and watch the highlights. She was fouled so many times. Boston gave her an elbow to neck that put her down and no call!
@@cedricbattle9829 yeah, especially on that reach in by Boston that should've been her 4th.
As somebody who was Born and raised in Iowa city, Iowa. I'm So proud of these Women and glad that they may be the ones to bring us our first national title.
Born and raised in Des Moines (Caitlin Clark). Attends UoI in Iowa City.
@@Gallegos78west Des Moines to be specific
In basketball. You have to be specific 😊
😂😂😂. Good joke
Love her humility and gratitude, repeatedly taking the focus off of herself and complimenting her teammates and coaches. Authentic team spirit!
As a South Carolinian I tip my hat to Clark. She had a great game and her post game interview was very respectful. Way to represent Iowa!
*I recognized greatness from Caitlin since she suited up her freshman season. My wife and I are huge fans! Her element of surprise factor with her coaches and teammates encouraging her and giving her the green light is unparalleled. Kudos to coach Lisa for putting this team together!*
She knows the game so well, she’s so positive, always speaking so highly of others teams and coaches, amazing
She broke a few records today. Her price just went up 100X.
She's famous so it's good seeing her being humble and not getting ahead of herself
Price?
@@wingzfan102 NIL…. She’s gonna make millions after this tournament
@@wingzfan102 advertisements gonna be crazy
@@xmwxmorris stl cardinals guy has made a few snide responses so far to others on here. I'm thinking he's a sc fan.
literally SO proud of Iowa!! What a game that was!
Oh literally proud vs figuratively?
@@wingzfan102 😂
Takes no personal credit, but talks up her Team, Coach, School, and State. CC is a Leader!
The timing on those pick and rolls/ give and goes was impressive. Never seen it done better.
She’s a walking bucket! Love to see it! Keep it going Caitlin! 👌🏽🏀
Larry Bird and Steph Curry had a little baby and named her Caitlin Clark! You go girl!
Clark is the female Steph Curry. She's an assassin,a dawg,she put Iowa on her back down the stretch and lit SC up. I never seen anything like it before. Hats off to that young lady.
she is NOT a dawg as you so eloquently put it
That’s just sports lingo for saying she’s really good at her sport and is tough and resilient.
@@weljenks no its not actually so please just do not use that term
@@themidwestplainsmanpodcast yea it is you moron lol
She is a DAWG
not a better feeling as an Iowa fan! Clark is the best thing that happened for the womens basketball game! Go hawks!
Eh. Atleast win a chip first to say "best"
Larry Bird and Steph Curry had a little baby and named her Caitlin Clark! You go girl!
Wow!!!! Such a BEAST! This is greatness.
Unguarded 🔥🔥🔥 this was the game of the year by far 💯💯💯
Gotta love this kid.. simply amazing and so smart and humble.
Good for her and good for Iowa! I hope they win.
1st overall pick generational talent
Hahaha love Caitlin's swagger.
First woman game I watched and so glad I did. Looking forward to Sunday
Amazing show of heart and in the first half the passing was outstanding. Congrats Iowa.
You can tell how smart she is by looking at her impressive eloquence and her insane reading of the game.
You can see the smart in her eyes
❤
Might be the dumbest thing I've heard today.
The usual right? The other hue is just athletic.
@@GP-wt8eo who do you mean?
Congratulations to Iowa Hawkeyes on an unbelievable performance beating South Carolina who existed a much bigger, stronger, and more Athletic team. And, Congratulations to the AP player of the year Caitlin Clark who had a game for the ages another 40+ game.
Slayed the dragon. CC is transforming women’s BB.
What about the new players thats already there?
I was telling everybody about Iowa. Been telling everybody that Caitlin Clark is the best player in women's college basketball. The media tried to make you all about A. Boston. But I was never convinced she was better than Clark
This girl definitely has brothers that play ball. The way she plays is just different.
Love her game, she is one of the fewest players who can do a step back three like James Harden do.
im a LSU fan, but if they lose to this Iowa team i wont be sad. CC is an incredible player, very Kim Mulkeyish
I don’t think ppl realize Clark has a LEBRON effect on that Iowa program.. without her they probably don’t even make the tournament..she’s literally carrying that team
she is NOT just the only one carrying the team
Larry Bird comes to mind, his college team Indiana state lost to Magic Johnson Michigan in semis. Larry lifted his teammates from average to once in life time players.
Tonight's game had the underdog winning.
@@themidwestplainsmanpodcast she had more than half of the teams TOTAL points!!!! If that’s not carrying it idk what is!! Without here they aren’t even in the tournament
There's no defense
I'm sry ya say no defense???? They held SC to 73 n Boston was as much as factor in this game as you n me was.
She has two years of eligibility left, WHOA!
Clark got that dawg in her 1000%
Best woman’s basketball player I ever seen
Congrats to Caitlin and the rest of the Hawkies. Lol at the SC fans who thought they could stop her and blow out Iowa.
Such an amazing player!! WIN Hawkeyes!!!!!
Love watching this generational player go to work! She excels in big moments and is a pleasure to watch her play the game. Best wishes against LSU
I love what she said about the culture and value system within the team. It starts with the coach. If you create a healthy culture that respects one another and works together as one, amazing things will follow. I'll be rooting for Iowa all the way.
Witnessing history as an Iowa fan.
CC #22 is a badddd mamajama .
National Champions bout to be real .
🏆🖤💛
SC was unbelievably talented. They were bigger, taller, deeper and more athletic and Iowa beat them with teamwork and resilience. Game of the year for sure.
as Mulkey said at the end of her hall of fame speech, the players, the players make every coach look good. any coach would be happy to have someone half the talent Caitlin Clark has, as well as the attitude and conditioning.
All week haters kept sayin SC were going to kill Iowa, where are those talkers tonight hhhmmm
Best female ball player to ever touch a basketball 🐐
The best woman basketball player in the world. Caitlinsanity two more years!!!
She dropped fowdy on #1😳 . Clark is HER!!
Love this postgame interview.
Great Story / Legendary. Iowa was well prepared by a truly outstanding coaching staff. The post trapping defense in the first quarter allowed superior shooting to get the lead. Taking better care of the ball is how they kept it.
She was no joke !
Dawn Staley will somehow make Iowa’s win racist
I never seen anything like her I won’t miss the next game
The best comparison is really Larry Bird. Deadly shooter but her bball IQ is Einstein on the floor. She’s 2 steps ahead of defenders always. I’d love to hear Larry’s take on Clark.
I had the same thought,that she plays like a lady Bird...
He said he can beat her with his left hand
It’s awesome to see the Iowa Caitlin Clark’s go to the championship game
Lady Legend? No! Just Legend 🫡🫶🏽
Bringing fundamental, smart basketball back.
Where’s all the SC fans that were saying Iowa was gonna get dominated ?? I’m born and raised in Iowa I love 20 mins from carver life long Iowa fan, never had a doubt they would win this game, SC didn’t show the respect they should have towards this team and now they’ve got the whole country’s respect.
Scored or assisted on every pt in the 4th quarter Daaang Girl, go getter at a top tier!
And she gave all due credit to a great SC team, as well.
Wow. What a great game. How blessed are we to see such a talented player.
Clark is phenomenal. Her long three is like a line drive. I see flash of Manu Ginobili in her game. Lets see if LSU has the answer.
some of her passes after the double team and on the transition from here was seriously impressive. Really enjoyed watching these teams face each other. Both good teams and Caitlin is a superstar.
Respect to Caitlin Clark 🫡 ❤🎉
I had faith in Iowa all the way. I knew they would come out with the W. GO HAWKS!!!!!!!
LEGEND
After Stanford lost I thought I was out. Well I’m officially back in.
She wanted to remove her jersey for a sec 😂
She may have missed some of her last threes, but she still lit it up and made many shots (more than 40 points 😳) to win and beat South Carolina. I watched this whole game, and man was it exciting, you can tell that the whole team works so hard. Caitlin shot the lights off and put on a show as always. Go Hawks!
Iowa’s coach reminds me of legendary coach Pat Summit. 😃…..Great game Caitlin
I am from Tennessee and no she is not.
@@RaiderRSupastar I actually knew coach summit and would go watch the team practice in the old practice gym before they tore it down and yes, her mannerisms are like coach’s were.
Caitlin Clark saved basketball
So happy i have no word
Oh I will SO be watching the final. Never watched an NCAA basketball game(men's or women's)...EVER. But watching this!!!! Hoping for an incredible match up.
Wow awesome I feel like I know this lady,all hustle and work,way to go oh and wsu brought me here,thank you.
I believe Caitlin has another year at Iowa. If that’s the case, she deserves a nice NIL deal. Her contribution to the women’s game is off the chart. She literally beat a 36-0 team with her will and insane talent.
Simply a legendary performance.
Geeeze Caitlin is on a missions mission. There's no way she will let her team down in the championship against LSU.
She’s so good
a young 🐐
Wow! Just Wow!
There are people in this world that you love to see lose, ANNNNDDDD Caitlin Clark is one of them.
Glad she got the snot kicked out of her. Humble pie.
Ngl, i thought Iowa had no chance. Caitlin Clark is indeed generational, congrats to her and her teammate and good luck in the Final cause it's going to be another very tough battle against a great team.
Shoutout to SC for their amazing couple of seasons, this group was special
Lots of fans here In Iowa thought we might lose this game because SC was hyped up so favored to win. I always said even if we didn't win we at least showed up and gave it our best.
Larry Bird and Steph Curry had a little baby and named her Caitlin Clark! You go girl!
The Larry Bird of women's basketball. Her shot making ability, passing the ball to her teammates and knowledge of the game are tremendous.
Dumb comment I'm sure she don't want to be compared to a dude have u ever compared a male player to a female player ? Most likely not
She,like Bird,does have a winning attitude. It is uncanny!
She's closer to curry than bird
as a Clemson fan this was awesome
One thing I wanna say, they need to rest. Most of the time, what happens after a hard fought win like this, they show up at the next game looking tired. They have to play again Sunday night! No partying, coaching staff needs to send them right to bed.
That's what happened to Gonzaga Mens 2-3 years ago after they won an emotional NCAA Final Four game in overtime against UCLA. They fell flat in the Championship game vs. Baylor.
Caitlin and her team played their hearts out! The best team won! Both teams have great players. Go Buckeyes!
What an Upset. I definitely thought I was gonna be SC vs LSU. WOW! Just Wow!
Epic CC beastmode
Steph Curry with a ponytail. Amazing player!
Dumb comment
She will change Women basketball culture.
What an amazing performance! So fun to watch. I'm more interested in the women's final than the men's because of her.
Absolute Dawg💯💯
Heart of a champion
#1 draft pick? I'd say so, killin it
Clark was ballin.
That pick and roll with senano was the difference
IOWAAAAAAAAAAAA
Is this heaven no it’s Iowa going to march heaven.
