2024 NCAA Women's Tournament Sweet 16 Preview -- Who can STOP South Carolina from winning it all?
The first weekend of the Women's NCAA Tournament provided a lot of drama, but despite those close endings, the results were all chalk. Ashley Nicole Moss and Terrika Foster Brasby look back at the first weekend and set the table for what looks like an epic weekend ahead

The Bracket is supposed to give the higher ranked team an advantage. They have earned it.
Yeah a lot of people can't comprehend this.. .why I'm not sure 😁😊GO GAMECOCKS
That's what people say, but right now they all pretty even. As far as #1's SC just the best team. NC can beat any 8 seed in the tournament. Texas was in a dog fight with Alabama.
It’s a mental advantage in all reality it’s no real advantage you still have to go out there and win home, away or in another country
Great discussion! Y'all know your stuff.
If South Carolina plays like they did against North Carolina they are going to win the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament.
That Saturday slate might be a all time day in college basketball history yet alone women's basketball.
Great job Ladies, good knowledge of the teams and game. Appreciate your inputs., continue success.❤️❤️
Do appreciate the acknowledgment of what Texas has overcome to get the #1 seed but I do think they and the Big 12 are underrated nationally. W Virginia pushed Iowa and Iowa St pushed Stanford because they are very good teams. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Baylor beat USC and know that Texas defense is elite! 💪🏾😎🤘🏽
Great show ❤
Can't move to neutral sites until you know you can fill the venues. If you launch it, and the crowds are sparse, it sets the sport back a bit.
Unnecessary travelling.
At ND, the stadium is packed! How exciting for these teams that don’t have a lot of attendance at their games. And yes, we pack it even for the non-ND game! Go Irish! ☘️
Subscribed. This commentary is spot on. Caitlin needs help. I think they will get it on Saturday and surprise a lot of people.
By who?
@@ishmael_03 The referees of course, just like it was in the WV game.
WVU vs IA was a football game masquerading as a basketball game. Stuhlke literally got pulled down multiple times in the game - on a pro wrestling arm lock- it was crazy how physical the officials let WVU get. Good for them its a formula but the refs should be aware going forward and make the calls particularly in the post. CU going to be tough though
Your joking right, the country saw how WV was cheated, 30 FTs to 5 for in the game and in the last 2 min , Iowa shoots 14 FTs to WV 0, a blind man can see the fix in that, i had no dog in the race, but do like to see a real basketball game instead of a referee exploted plot, i hear the refs are under NCAA ivestigation as should be, they may never referee another game.
@@judgejurylw1026 judge, is this true about the investigation?
@@dondee5439 Yes , i watched the program of ESPN Womens Analyst , Debbie Antonelli and sports Center Anchor talk about it, of course the outcome of the game can not be changed, but after the Womens March madness is completed, the refs in the Iowa / WVU, game would be an investigation, do to the irregular fouls called against WV, especially in the last 2 minutes of the game, when it was tied up, and Iowa shot 14 FTs to WV, 0.
Please !!! Stuhlke hooked pinned and pulled the wv player down Iowa fans NEVER seem to think that they foul.
NICE JOB Ladies
On Iowa: first, it's a team that learns from problem games; and two, we gotta see if Molly Davis is back (they really missed her calm ball handling v WV).
She out for the season
@@KelzKelz yeah probably but I can keep hoping... ☹️
@@def1ghi I thought I saw that as confirmed but I could be wrong.
Well, imo, a prominent NCAA basketball analyst puts it best, "when you're playing in the NCAA tournament, you have to face your nemesis". Iowa got passed one of them by winning a game with only Clark hitting 3's. Every other time that happened, they lost. Iowa is going through a gauntlet, and they survived their first test. Colorado is going to look like West Virginia, only taller. That team is very quick, and they're battle-tested. It's a very challenging bracket for Iowa.
@@greg.d.c totally agree and honestly we've not had our best games so I'm hoping Iowa can step up to the challenge and at least go down looking their best.
I believe Texas will be back and go further with Rori next year.
I feel too teams should play at the underdogs house in the first two rounds that would make it more interested because them underdogs would be hype on their own court and see if the top teams can handle that pressure because pressure bust pipes
I don't think you do neutral sites. I think the #1 teams have earned that home field advantage for the first two rounds. You don't like it? Beat em.
Not enough emphasis on fulwiley
Right it’s cool she bout to take the spotlight they won’t have a choice but to say her name
She’s definitely a BALLER!!!
6:33 It’s CARVER Hawkeye Arena…not Carter…
I think USC is the team to win it all. Great show. You guys know your stuff and give great analysis.
Certainly heavily favored. But, with a knockout competition, anything can happen. Though i would favour a 3 game finals series. In the end we all want the best team to win. Not the luckiest team.
USC, I'm on board❤
@@DvonCarr Get off asap!!!!!
@@gokuswanson2037 i JUST go OFF, they lost.😊
@DvonCarr good stuff, no need to thank me, I'm just out here saving lives lmao (to be fair I'm shocked USC lost but I've been watching all the games and JuJu had me concerned with her play style late in games)
Go Irish! 💚☘️
I think it will take a lot out of UConn’s limited rotation to beat Duke, and I wonder how much they’d have left against USC 48 hours later
Hook Em Horns
No team is safe. Anybody can get got during the dance.
Depends on the referees, can always beat your opponents but never the referees.
Ashley Nicole Moss is gorgeous and smart 😀Uconn fan here..They can beat Duke since Duke has a hard time scoring as is along with Uconn's defense - they should win BUT against USC, Wadkins needs to have a bad game for Uconn to win..We will see - Go huskies..
thanks for watching! x
Y’all just completely discounting Baylor like it’s a given USC is going to the Elite 8. Y’all know USC only has a 56% chance to win that game, per advanced stats. How about giving some love to teams that don’t have these superstars y’all like to talk about all the time. They’re working together; a different star every night. You can make your pick, but don’t act like it’s a foregone conclusion.
Only a certain few (weirdos) want to see LSU vs. Iowa again. The last season championship game between them wasn't a close game or a nailbiter. So why? Why do "we" so desperately need to see these two teams face off. The LSU team couldn't give a D and judging by the looks of the Iowa players during the " Iowa Hawkeyes selection show watch party " @ 3:41 , THEY DON'T WANT TO FACE LSU either. So, let's stop the fake hype about a rematch. EVERYBODY who is truly a women's college basketball fan who has seen either of the two games LSU has played against South Carolina this season, wants to see these two teams play again. This time with all healthy players and a National Championship on the line. THAT'S the real game most people want to see.
LSU needs to give SC credit for last years title - it was crazy #2 Iowa had to play #1 SC in the semi-final match! If you think IA was at 100% for the title game after the dog fight the SC game was then you didn't watch their semi-final game. Congrats LSU, but don't get it twisted they didn't face the same Hawkeye team that ran through the Big10 and took out a generational team in SC.
@martinpatzkowski barely won with refs help. Why couldn't they keep up to physical for them too bad
I disagree. LSU thought they wanted the smoke but they didn't! It was a good game too! Go IOWA!!!!!!!!
UCONN can beat Duke but with their limited roster, I don't see them beating USC.....
I think UCONN can beat USC. I think they have enough on their team to do it.
@@greg.d.c I'm a UConn fan but who's on uconn team is guarding juju Watkins she's 6'2 6'3 with a grown lady body and athletic uconn doesn't have any wings to stop juju Watkins Paige is 5'11 she will be in foul trouble just don't see Uconn beating USC
@@greg.d.cUconn couldn't stop Hannah Hidalgo and Norte Dame at home JuJu Watkins and USC is a different breed
Iowa's offense has been screwed up since starting guard Molly Davis got injured. If she can play this weekend, that will be huge as she is their second best offensive threat.
I really hope she starts!
is there any word on if she’ll play saturday? i kinda assumed she was done for the season tbh
Virginia Tech, Kansas St, Ohio St, lost on their home court. Stanford, Texas, Iowa, LSU, UCLA, Indiana, NC State, a play or two could have got got. Uconn, Oregon St, Gonzaga, got competitive games on their home court. Only South Carolina, Notre Dame and USC wasnt tested. Now everybody in the sweet 16 on neutral sites. How is neutral sites a topic?
LSU gonna beat them when it counts. If the refs stay out of it. I feel we would have still beat middle Tenn but the refs played a major part in us blowing them out the same as the Iowa game when Iowa had one made shot in the fourth quarter but scored 14 of their 16 points from the line but nobody talks about that they just hate on the Showtime Tigers And y'all don't even know it Geaux Tigers
They couldn't beat the Gamecocks in BR, they're not going to beat them on a neutral court.
LSU Can’t Do Nothing With SC Ngl
@@TrainsFerriesFeet SC barley beat us 10 against 6 two games what makes you think we can't beat them if they meet up a 3rd time watch and see just live on. Geaux Tigers
@@torreyturner9562no chance against SC! Just like the first 2 games. Down the stretch fatigue kills LSU.
@@torreyturner9562 2-0 this year; LSU hasn't beaten the Gamecocks in more than a decade.
Go UCLA! Send LSU home! Someone else can win the National Championship!
Don’t sleep on Oregon State.
@rluellam - Thanks for pointing that out. Ever since the brackets came out I've been predicting Oregon State would advance and take down South Carolina. OSU is tall, strong, have depth, and it's really hard to score on them in the paint. South Carolina will have their hands full, and they will crack away from their home court. Pac-12 has 5 teams in the sweet 16 for a reason. The Pac-12 has been the toughest conference by far this year.
@@user-gn3wq1mt7g Oregon State has to beat Notre Dame and Hannah Hildalgo first!!!
@@zohall6034exactly!
Go Irish! ☘️💚
@@user-gn3wq1mt7g because maybe they are over rated conference maybe and SC score more points than OSU and give up less points than OSU. Every thing you said about OSU goes for SC. SC has been number one after first week and where OSU finished 13th ranked. The Notre Dame game, the referee’s interruption may have cause ND to lose to enforce a rule for the first time this in that game when it was not called whole season. We’ll see who wins but Carolina not doing as good as they can lately, they been close to losing many game
Neutral sites time!
Caitlin can't win it alone, neither could Larry Bird in 1979 even tho the Sycamores were 33 and 0 the day of the Championship game, mostly because of Larry Bird. Magic and the Spartans brought their game and even if Larry had put up a 30 + point effort the Sycamores were still likely to lose by a point or two instead of the 11 point lost they suffered. Basket ball is a team effort first and foremost.
NOBODY is stopping SC, and I'm not even a SC fan. I can't stand Cardoza. She plays dirty and she's a bully.
🤣😂 You think she's a bully because she's 6'7 and won't allow ppl to just grab and pull on her because she's the biggest person on the court? What's your definition of bully?
@@black803100My definiton of a bully is: someone who blindsides a player half her size and pushed her to the ground, knowing that she can't defend herself. Ya know, like when Cardoza got suspeneded for pushing Flau'Jae Johnson...who's half her size. Not Cardoza's first bullying incident, either. I bet Cardoza won't dare try that on Angel Reece, or better yet Audi Crooks of Iowa State.
Ucla is going to destroy lsu
Oh, we know what you girls did in your college years. 😑
USC (So. Cal) will beat USC (So. Carolina). Got that Ju Ju Mo Jo.
Keep on dreaming
Lol, South Carolina has no compettiton
I don’t think they will meet this year
Oregon State will advance and take down South Carolina. South Carolina will finally have to take on one of the best teams in the best women's basketball conference this year. The Pac-12 has 5 teams in the sweet sixteen for a reason. Oregon State is tall, strong, has depth and is extremely hard to score on in the paint. South Carolina will be away from home and won't get the home cooking. Quite simply, South Carolina will crack under pressure. They should have lost to that also-ran Tennessee, but dodged a bullet.
LMAOOOOO
Haven't been watching that South Carolina team, have you? Their fans travel and they probably play the toughest schedule out of any team. They are young but battle tested, and I don't see that with Oregon St. Ask yourself the question, Can Oregon St. face the pressure of dealing with a team that is a defensive and offensive juggernaut and not fold?
You delusional!
They got to beat Notre Dame 1st.
They have to do it again, right?@@KelzKelz
This show is trash 🗑️🗑️
WHY, because they have an opinion ?
Agree, Devon. Enjoyed and learned alot pertinent information. Am excited to see more NCAA Women's Basketball! 🏀 ❤
ps Dvon.
@@eileendarr3956 so am I , i LIVE for THIS moment, after it's over for the year, im done with basketball PERIOD !
@@DvonCarr THEM 2 don't know wth their talking about 👀
