I watched most of this game and I still wonder just how good this team could be if they played hard for the entire game on both ends. they fell behind, then took control and then once they had a good lead, relaxed, made some dumb fouls and their defense was bad. I'll be watching Tuesday, but they better play hard or Iowa will send them home. GO CATS!!!

^^^^ I'm with you Lighthouse: they can't play inconsistently against Iowa or else they are going HOME. Iowa has a sensational guard-Clark; she would win Freshmen of The Year if it wasn't for Paige Beckers (UCONN)...bet Clark will get the second highest votes. Lets go Cats
