I’ve never been a huge women’s college basketball fan but Caitlin has made me a fan. This LSU fan watches every single Iowa game. She’s drawing alot of attention to the sport and well deserved.

[@survivrs]

@TheSandmanShane Thanks for watching!! Caitlin and the rest of the team are why I began watching last year, and so glad I did. It would be great if they could keep getting talent in for when Caitlin and the others are gone.

[@victoriafisher9807]

Same with me. I never watched it before. I’m a fan! I want a front row seat at a final game. I live in California, might be difficult!

I don't watch women's basketball, but when I saw Caitlin Clark was on ESPN2, I flipped over and watched.

@@anthonytaylor7928 good point. but a thing about the goat debate is its not always who is best in a singular area. jordan has a balance between all aspects except assists. so does caitlin. so even tho shes not the first to do it nobody has seen stats like her with all the scoring she does.

[@plantmillionsofteees5676]

“History In Flight!” What a GREAT LINE

[@survivrs]

That was so exciting to watch. The interstate rivalry is always a hard game no matter which city the game is played in. Caitlin's scoring was amazing as was Kate Martin's. 3,013 points for Caitlin, and it's December!!

[@user-xf4mx5wn8s]

Completely agree with this post. Gabbie has lost all her confidence on offense, feel sorry, but she has to be the one to step up and fix it.

[@HannahDisponett]

​@@user-xf4mx5wn8s, true...but that was selfless of her to give the ball to CC to get her to 3,002 instead of attempting the 2 pointer herself!!!

[@survivrs]

@@HannahDisponett I don't agree Hannah, Gabbie, like most shooters will hit a slump, and they come out of it eventually, and she hit 2 3's early, but after missing a few shots, she did seem to lose her confidence, so it was easier to feed the ball to Caitlin or Kate. She still tried a few more through the game, but she went cold. I know the feeling of having a bad game, but not in Basketball. Sometimes it's hard to build that confidence back up. I hope she can do it soon.

[@HannahDisponett]

​@@survivrs, , I agree, and I believe I've even said she's hit a slump and hoping gets better. Still, Gabbie was still pretty open for a two but selflessly gave up that chance for CC to break the record...that may have been her plan all along? Otherwise, why not pass it to Kate who was RIGHT UNDER THE BASKET and could have made the easy lay up?

[@survivrs]

@@HannahDisponett To be honest, I don't think she was doing it for Caitlin to break the record, it was just to put it in the hands of someone who was shooting on FIRE that night. As it turns out, Caitlin and Kate were the 2 that were on fire although Mollie and Hannah both contributed. I was wrong with my original comment, I thought Gabbie had hit 2 3's at the beginning, but she never scored a point. I'm not going to try and get in her head at this point, I'm not qualified, but I hope now that they've got that monkey off their back for awhile anyway, I'm hoping that Gabbie will be on point for the next game, if for no other reason than to get her confidence back if that is why she wasn't hitting. You have good comments all the time, and without Kate's shooting, we could have easily lost that game. For such a young team, Iowa State could be contenders for the big dance unless this was just the typical "Iowa/Iowa State" game that you never want to bet on either team because it rarely turns out like you think it will. Do you have any thoughts on whether or not Hannah might have reinjured her ankle that night after the fall with the ISU player who lost her shoe and Hannah's foot came down on the shoe. I thought she was back in the game after that, so I'm hoping she is still good to go on the next game.

[@daletaliaferro6386]

Caitlin Clark's shot is identical to Larry Bird's: smooth, effortless, and dead-on accurate. A real treat to watch. Hope she plays for a very long time.

[@user-us2ye5il3v]

Her shot is nothing like Bird's, nothing. She has a one motion shot and Bird's was a two motion.

[@RW-gx6ml]

She’d average about 12 assists if her teammates could hit wide open shots.

[@bertjones3010]

Why would they even care, she does it all.

[@survivrs]

@@bertjones3010 That is baseless. Caitlin is never shy about dishing the ball to other players if they have a better shot. Not only did she break 3,000 points, she has at least 750 assists and at least 750 rebounds to add to her resume. That assist count only proves that she is not out there just for herself. Also when reporters grab her, she will give her teammates all the glory or MORE of the glory they may or may not deserve before she ever says a thing about her own performance. She is selfless on the court, as well as crazy great. I hope she stays for her COVID year.

The rest of the game is mostly trash but this young lady is legit. She's has the kind of playstyle and swag that we've been waiting for to make us care by ACTUALLY entertaining us. She's cold.

[@wymple09]

A couple of Clark's 3's were insanely long, way behind the line. Other girls have good percentages, but not from a mile back. She went from 16th all time to passing up several women ahead of her. Before the regular season is done she will have the record. Might as well, she already has more records than any player in history.

[@survivrs]

29 feet for 2 of them, her best range shots come from beyond 25'.

That was a great game. I was VERY impressed w how good IA state was. My parents went to IA state, and my dad's father went to Iowa, where his brother was a Professor of Physics. My grandfather, at Iowa, qualified for the US Olympic Trials, but didn't go because he couldn't afford the train fare to get there. Use your Free Will to LOVE!

[@jeffboland624]

I state looks like a team of the future with their freshmen. Iowa is the team of the present

[@survivrs]

@@jeffboland624 I agree about ISU! They are YOUNG, and while you have to take into consideration the in-state rivalry games should never be bet on because records and ranking mean absolutely NOTHING. Something that was shown when ISU grabbed the lead a couple of times and only lost by 9. Iowa wasn't putting in scrubs either, that was a well fought game which is more than I can say for the men's game last night where ISU beat Iowa by 25. It's going to be interesting to see if ISU can keep up this pace through their schedule.

[@wymple09]

They played well above their heads trying to win that 1 game they really lose sleep over. And Clark's team mates weren't shooting worth a crap. They missed everything in the 3rd quarter, so Clark had to do it herself. 18 of Iowa's 1st 20 points after the half were Clark. With decent shooting, or even close, it would have been at least a 20 point win.

Dang Cyclones Defense

[@wonderlandian8465]

How is any team defending Clark like this? I can't understand what coach would ever defend Clark like this 0:50

[@survivrs]

@wonderlandian Are you talking about the screen or the fact that she was out beyond the arc a ways? If you're talking about how far out you would defend her, you pretty much need someone on her once she crosses the time line because there are very few places on the home side of that line that she can't or won't hit, but 29' is definitely getting out there. Teams try to defend her, but when they do, it only frees up at least 2 more Hawkeyes, and they can all shoot the 3 or take it to the basket in just about any way imaginable. Caitlin isn't afraid to give the ball to a teammate either. She has over 750 assists, so she's not selfish.

[@plantmillionsofteees5676]

There are some very good basketball players. A few, we could label as ‘great’ … On up the ladder and into rarified air, there are ‘generational players.’ You’ll see less than 5 of those in your lifetime … and I never imagined there’d be the need to carve out a category that’s greater & higher than generational-greatness. But now that category must be established. And there’s only one person in it. And her name is Caitlin Clark 🏀 🏆… I mean SERIOUSLY! WHAT THE WHAT! What am I watching here. I’ve never seen anything like it.

[@djake1107]

ESPN ignored that fact that the last women to score more than 3,000 points in her career was Ashley Joens of Iowa State last season, but that would have messed up their whole storyline.

[@elmarko9051]

Wow, just looked it up. It would have been a nice sidebar, showing that Iowa (D1 - UNI, Drake, Iowa, Iowa State) is a good place for for WBB. And that ISU advanced to the 16. Weirdly enough Creighton ended both Iowa and ISU's season in 2022.

[@davidedwards4720]

While that’s true Joens took five seasons to reach that plateau and Clark passed it in 3 1/3 seasons.

[@avileemiller7942]

22 came through

[@jdneely9939]

Too bad her teammates (except Martin 14 points) can't hit open shots. Marshall may have goddess eyes but she can't seem to use them to see how to shoot the basketball into the net (0-5 from three land). Affolter, Davis, Stuelke, Goodman n others scored 21 points COMBINED!!! YIKES!!!!! Iowa is so screwed once Clark leaves.

[@brycematthew3115]

if they had to run an offensive play, they'd call timeout and sub her in. She's got 4 fouls and they'd rather have someone out there on the floor who doesn't have to be afraid of getting their 5th foul for defense.

[@notmenowhere]

[@mjuza7114]

Caitlin scored 35 points and that sounds really strong, but this was bad shooting evening for her because she made only 12 of 31 shoots. She forced her shoot way too much, she missed too many shoots, but also she had to make some shoots because entire team had really bad shooting evening...only 34.5%....9 rebounds and 5 assist....overall, she was best player on court, but she needs to improve her shooting percentage

[@bertjones3010]

She was shooting a lot and was able to make a lot of shots but missed few shots and her shooting % was miserable. But shoot, when you make a shot or two, it all counts in the final score, if you get my drift.

[@survivrs]

@2mj When you consider how far out she was when she missed those shots, the fact that she was still draining as many as she did negates the percentage. ISU was playing an incredible game, especially when you consider how young they are and they had the home court advantage as well, however, home court advantage doesn't mean jack during the biggest in state rivalry that gets played every year. It's not a match you want to bet on.

[@thecrudepodcast5907]

Greatest/deadliest female shooter to grace the sport of basketball.

[@StoryGordon]

Caitlin is one of the best players this year, but scoring more than half (52.2%) of Iowa's points against State and one third year to date could make them more vulnerable in tournaments. Not a given, only a thought. That she is also the assist leader may negate the situation. She is fun to watch except when she pushes an opponent to the floor.

As you can readily see the three point shot now has become the standard of basketball, gone are the days of triangle defense calling plays that involve one or two other teammates all you have to do is learn the three point shot the rest is history thanks to Steph Curry Reggie Miller basketball has changed forever at least the girls look a little better nowadays using a regular ball not the clown ball from the Globetrotters, wnba should take note, get serious. and shooting the three-point set shot, bill Burr's message obviously got through as you can see the crowd, good for him women and men should support Womens sports, and they will as the competitions starts to get better.
