You did not lose because of the refs. You’re inside players should have 30 more fouls. It’s one thing to play hard, it’s another thing to play dirty, and they master dirty.
You did not lose cause Reese fouled out with four minutes to go. She doesn’t guard Hall or Johnson. She plays the dirtiest of all, I’m not talking about hard and hustle and tough, I’m talking about throwing elbows to the face hacking across the forearms with no call. Blatantly throwng elbows in the back to try and start something. She gets the Jordan rules, but the referees know they have to call at least five out of her 40 fouls. Go watch her supposed blocks against Cardoso. She hits her both times right across the forearms. Not the wrist…the dang forearms. Her 4th foul she pulled KC to the floor by her jersey and acted like a victim.
You can come up with all the scenarios of players, that if you had them, you would have beat us soundly. What the heck, every team could use that scenario after every loss.
Last night did not mean you are now better than us (like your message boards think), it does not mean that you will beat us on a neutral floor. It simply means you had the world at your feet, a hostile crowd, ESPN was in love with you last night, you played as good as you can play, and you still lost by 6 to a team that did not play its best. Let that sink in.
So enjoy 2nd place in the SEC, and hope you can avoid us in the big dance…..that’s your only path.
