I am so excited for this one. I expect the winner to maybe score 60 points. Nobody knows Dawn and SC more than Vic, but he rarely beat her. The style of game Texas played against Maryland plays right into when SC is best.
I think Boston might have trouble guarding Collier because Collier can stretch the floor and she is much quicker than her. SC has way better guards and if they hit 3's, I think they win by 10.

Victoria Saxton poised for a career high on layups alone -- 4 straight wide-open layups just by running their half court offense. Then a fast break layup by Henny. Remind me again how this team held Maryland to their season low??? Then again, Maryland opened that game with a 13-2 run before Texas really got going.

Texas is not starting well.

Gamecocks quieted down a bit in the last half of the 1st Period, but take a commanding 18-7 lead at the end of the 1st Qtr. Victaria Saxton is 4-4 in the 1st Qtr., with 8 points to lead the way.....

Ugh. Debbie has picked up what I call the “sportscaster glitch”...”she yada yada yada, does Boston.” I was so hopeful that wouldn’t make it into women’s sports. It’s all over men’ sports, not just basketball. So annoying. And I only hear it from sportscasters.

Amazing to me that this is as close as it is..
Texas needs to get in transition, they aren’t going to score in the half court against South Carolina.

Victoria Saxton with six left-handed layups I believe... or was one of those from the right block?

Gamecocks run off a 9-0 run and had the rebound for the final possession, before Boston gets the ball stolen from her, and Texas runs down to the other end and hits a three at the buzzer. But the Gamecocks out-score Texas 19-15 after the Longhorns opened the 2nd Period strongly, and lead 37-22 at the half.
Zia Cooke leads the way with 13 pts on shooting, Victaria Saxton added 12 pts on 6-7 shooting, and 7 rebounds.
Collier has 4 pts on 2-8 shooting, and 2 boards......

Disclaimer: I say this knowing full well that I'm just a fraction of the coach Vic Schaefer is. However, I don't understand how their offense can't get her any better looks.

They did throw it away at least twice trying to get it in to her.

It feels like a blowout but Texas got it down to 10

The Gamecocks were out-scored slightly for much of the 3rd Qtr., but Amihere comes back in to score two buckets, and Zia Cooke scores again to give the Gamecocks the late-period push to out-score the Longhorns 15-12, and extend their lead to 52-34 after three qtrs.....

Warren leads the Longhorns and is their only dbl-digit scorer thus far, with 13 pts. I guess her head is fine. And then she charges....

So Charli comes back in when they're behind by 21 and Boston is on the bench. Maybe she can do something now.

It’s Vic’s first year. Texas will only get better.
