Looks like it has been a game of runs. The women’s game between UCLA and LSU had gotten interesting. LSU’s Flau’Jae Johnson hit a layup to cut the UCLA lead to 3. But UCLA’s Gabriela Jacquez hit two free throws and a three-pointer with about 1:30 to play to lead the Bruins to victory.
I had thought the men’s game had only been going for a short amount of time – so was surprised to turn on the game and the first thing I see is Bruce Pearl being interviewed and asked about what they are doing right on this 17-0 run.
Michigan State would score the next 7 points to chip the lead away, and so at halftime they are only down 9. Johni Broome from Auburn is a beast – with 17 points and 11 rebounds and it is only halftime!
Can Auburn hang on to give us 4 number 1 seeds for the first time since 2008?
