LOSING ALL 5 STARTERS .. THEN GOING UNDEFEATED AND WINNING A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP IS THE BEST STORY IN WCBB .. AND IT WASNT CELEBRATED ENOUGH ..
Because they kept celebrating Caitlin Clark. The refs and the commentators wanted her to win so bad.
The disrespect was unreal.
Raven Johnson started last year as a Freshman. They didn't lose 5 starters. They lost 5 key players
@@luvcyrus5991Raven was not a starter last year, Iowa fan.
Because Caitlin was the best player in ncca women's hands down no competition.....South Carolina has the best team in Ncca Women's basketball but that's a team effort not individual so it's not a sexy headline that will get attention....The media will always follow hype and headlines when a phenom is breaking records and has a chance at a title as the ultimate goal to solidify their Greatness.... Everyone knows that..
Tessa Johnson: Nerves. Of. Steel. 👏🏾👏🏾🏆
She gotta be a Steelers fan
She played the game like she was starter and that's way all bench players are suppose to play. She sealed the game for them!!
Agreed !
the freshman came to play for SC !!
Tessa was amazing today
Raven too stealing the ball a few times from clark
Tessa Johnson
19 Pts, 4 Reb, 1 Ast, 1 Stl (3-6, 3-3PT)

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Career high in the championship game!
Thanks for posting her stats!
Can’t wait for next season. She’s going to be an absolute terror.
Freshman Tessa came to play, the entire team for SC had the desire and heart to win this game. Congratulations SC Champions this was your time to shine
Well deserved SC! Y’all went undefeated and built a dynasty
They need to make a movie about those south Carolina legends.
On it
omg why? lol so dramatic.
Cocks Rise Up: Return of Game
@@beemajic5773ayeeeeee I love it haha! 🤙🏽🐔🙌🏽
Dawn Staley will get a 30 for 30 when she retires
Love her game, calm and collected. Balances out the team
Amazing to go undefeated in any elite sport, congrats to the Gamecocks and they deserve all the attention for that alone.
Tessa Johnson snapped her left femur in half in high school. The dang thigh bone - and not just a fracture, but a clean break. The strongest bone in the body - and arguably one of the most important for mobility, balance, and stability when you consider how many (and the importance of) muscles, ligaments and tendons it supports. Think about that when you watch her glide up and down the court - drive to the basket - step back and hit the midranges, etc. She is fearless. The fact that she plays at such a high level with that kind of traumatic leg injury is so impressive. She is one to watch for many years! She has quickly become one of my favorites on the team.
South Carolina the real team. A one woman show will only go so far
Hater talk 😅😅
@@pedrojoubert9975 good try. Proved that it's true
Twice!! 😂😂
@@pedrojoubert9975it's a fact it's a team sport not a one-man army😮
@@BTL_LTW yep exactly
Raven locked Clark down
And picked her like a lock!!
Johnson reminds me of Jasmine Carson performance last tear. 3x3s. Well done SC
Just found out that back in high school she suffered a major injury (a femur break! )and she is HERE dropping 19 points and winning the NCAA Division I Women’s National championship as a freshman.
I don’t know if we even realize how more than incredible this is. Just jaw-dropping for me.
Tessa will be one of the greatest. Just watch
So many weapons on this team. Tessa was the x-factor!!!!!
TESSA JOHNSON HAD A COOKOUT IN THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!!!!🏀🏀🏀🔥🔥🔥
I have a really good feeling about Tessa. She went above and beyond this season. Menace!
A star in the making!!!!!!!⭐️🏆
Cardozo had 15 points, 17 rebounds, 3 blocks and some other altered shots. She's dominant on the boards and defensively. South Carolina will miss her.
SC just reloads. We have more bigs coming next season and they might be better than Cordoso.
@@vernonkelly3379 "Better than Cardozo?" We'll see. Those are big shoes to fill.
Impressive performance from Tessa!!!
She played like a vet!!!
Tournament Tessa DIFFERENT she got me over here proud like I know her 😂
Did anyone honestly think Iowa was going to win this? They won by 1 point against a team that had at least 60 points sitting on the bench. And they won that by way of ref
Same thing I said lol. The refs couldn’t help them this game. 😂
Iowa should've lost to LSU... the refs helped them win that game, too. Angel Reese was fouled going to the hoop... that Iowa player committed a blocking foul... her feet were never set.
Yes, it's one game. Anything can happen. Plus they had the best player on the court in CC.
@@ahmorganneutralized
Iowa drove the struggle bus against colorado 🙄 And that team was straight pitiful 🗑
Balled out!
Phenomenal performance by Tessa Johnson 🏀🏆
Refs did all they could to give Iowa the win 😂😂😂
Yes they tried lol
Facts 😂
LMAO!!!
0 Iowa bench points was the most ridiculous stat of the game.
In just a couple short years, no one's going to remember Caitlin Clark. The woman who could score, but couldn't win a Championship. 💯
They gone be pressure next year again lol…they gonna hate south carolina
Caitlin Clark is going in the draft so yeah.... They're done😅
Angel Reese said, "we're not scared of South Carolina." I thought that was so cute. That means they respect us.
@@KtotheG Angel and Cardoso are going to be on the same team in the WNBA 👉🤪👈
💛💜💛💜Sparks💜💛💜💛
LSU paid IOWA back for beating SC last year..this year it's the same gesture! I know LSU..grinning🫡!
Way to go Tessa! One of Minnesota's very own!
Congratulations South Carolina!!! A year of perfection completed. 🙂
I love watching Iowa get CLAPPED and I mean CLAPPED....2 YEARS IN A ROW!
A perfect season love you ladies ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow amazing performance by the south Carolina Women team this afternoon was a tough and physical and mental game tonight but by the end of the clock they came out in top.Hopefully they will win the championship this year. Great contributions tonight and efforts from Ashlyn,Kamilla ,Te-hina, Raven Johnson and Tessa Johnson tonight.But for me the MVP player goes to Tessa Johnson her 19 points lead South Carolina to the victory and prevented them from being eliminated. But on the defense end this afternoon was a big and great game coming from Kamila her 15 points and 17 rebounds This is a great night for Gamecocks fans and Dawn Stanley as well.
I love watching Tessa run & & shoot & play. My fav Gamecock all season long.
With a stroke like that Tessa will always be confident. I get mad when she doesn’t shoot her open shots. Coaching staff finally cut her loose & it paid off.
The refs was trying to keep Iowa in the game lol
Just like they did in the UCONN game
It was so obvious... I think they were ordered by the powers that be to give Iowa those last two wins, too... even the commentators have been talking mostly about Caitlin Clark than any other player. Sue Bird predicted an Iowa blowout. I don't know what she was thinking. She must not have been watching SC all year.
Tessa and Chloe gonna be a problem next year.
And a "Star" was born, get em Tess
Tezzzz Johnson is my favorite player, this girl can play.
2nd best player on the floor 2day after Cardoso & only a freshman! Congrats Tessa & THANK YOU 4 helping put an end 2 all that hype.
Tessa was ON FIRE! This program and players are amazing!!
South Carolina wasn't relying on one player like Iowa was. If Caitlin Clark were to go to the bench for any given reason the margin of defeat for Iowa might have set a Championship game record.
Where are the full highlights?? It’s been a half hour since they won. If Iowa won they highlights would have been up
😂😂😂😂
We all know why lol
Tessa was the bessa
MY FAVORITE FEMALE BASKETBALL PLAYER TESSA JOHNSON AND GOOD JOB 🏆❤️🔥
@trajohnadams1772 Mine is JuJu Watkins
Iowa fans slaty on social media right now smh their sore losers
I'm sure they are saying the refs were helping S.C. bwahahhahaha told y'all we would win it all❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
#5..Coach Staley had that number and TESSA plays just like COACH STALEY...I knew she was gonna be a problem since game 3 of this year...🥶
This girl is awesome! So mature for a freshy!
She said Caitlin I’m gonna show how to really shoot 💪 💯 congratulations 🍾 SC
Her dad is Black. She is her father's race@mattep3395
@mattep3395What does having a lot of European in her have to do with anything?
Tessa's all around game is superior to Clarke. Just a better all-around point guard.
Oh please!! What you been smoking?
I just learned about Tessa Johnson this week...and watched a NCAA game by the 1st time this week...
And I should agree...unbelievable hearing that she's a freshwoman(rookie?).
Tessa Johnson was my MVP and she's cute
💯
Great job!
Tessa "CRUSHED ICE" Johnson, did her thang!!!!!
Revenge Tour complete!
Tessa been doing a great job all year .Shes a baller for real. She can shoot
Tessa is a baller great shooting Tessa congrats an ty
0:13 that pull up jumper was so gorgeous
She got that inbound pass and took off. Left CC in her dust lol! That's one my favorite plays of the game. It was sweet! To think she's a freshman. She put herself on the map. I look forward to seeing her in the future.
Yep. All net, no sweat 😂
Yeah...THEY had a predesigned scenario ALL laid out.
Yeah...THEY had the crown all Caithlin shined up and ready.
Yeah...THEY had the coronation all primed and the Queen eager to take the throne.
LOL..
Thing is Coach Dawn Staley and the Game Cocks had a vastly different point of view.
Long live the QUEEN!!
Minnesota Stars ⭐️ Live for this
Tessa up next !
😎What a great player, so smooth, so pretty, may God bless Miss Tessa Johnson !!! Omaha!
More SC love flood it espn I know it hurts you yahoos to do this but the better team won
This game was so good! I'm probably going to watch it again, although the 1st quarter was stressful. I know the outcome now! Tessa was so clutch! GO COCKS 🔥🔥🔥🏀🏀🏀
Yo Tess, you won MVP in that game to me!!!
facts
South Carolina has girls off their bench like Tessa Johnson who would start for any other team.
I didn’t hear anything about S Carolina all year. Nothing but Caitlyn Caitlyn Caitlyn. Didn’t watch the game, but sounds like Iowa is pretty weak except Caitlyn.
Crazy this sport is doing better than the weak NBA.
@knockout9446 Doing better than the NBA? You are not the sharpest.
@@Redridge07The NBA ratings are garbage. Just look it up.
And you will probably never hear of Iowa again 😂
@@lazs.2623🗣NEVER.
NBA needs to let them boys play without blowing a whistle for anything
Don’t know any players, except C. Clark. Looked at the leading scorer on the winning team. She’s a freshman. Boom 💥 congratulations on winning a trophy youngster!
G.O.A.T.S COME THROUGH WHEN YOU NEED THEM!!!!!
I'm go to the parade when they get back to Columbia sc
Ball don’t lie. Congrats SC. Refs couldn’t help this time. Lol
lol S.C. They didn’t say nothing when she wavy Johnson off last year. She pick her off 3 times this year
PROUD OF GAMECOCKS!!! 🖐️ 💍 I thank yall for all the sacrifice, dedication, and hardwork!!! Love yall
Congratulations 🏆
Tessa Tough 💪🏽
So happy for Tessa and I dont even know her., LOL what a performance!!!!
Talk About 🔥 🔥
Tessa was Hoop N.. 👍🏿👍🏿
Congratulations
New pack in the air 🚬 that Caitlin Clark pack..
They overcame the refs shitty calls, justice for UConn was served
Clark's defense against her was pretty lame.
The so called G.O.A.T got put on the grill 😂
Still the goat , but best team won .
@@reubenblanco3021no such thing as a G.O.A.T with no ring sorry... she's really good tho😁
@@matthewsteele7601funny the SAME folks have that same argument about BRON..rings equal CHAMPIONS..not the beautiful way in which you play the game. They SHIFTY ASF, with everything..lol
@@FknTorn-xv2xs Exactly 😂
@mattep3395as far as her being good for sure but to be the GOAT of COLLEGE basketball would require her to win in college genius 😂
Good job ladies ❤
Tessa and Fulwiley will be the Kyrie and Klay backcourt
She is amazing and I like her voice. From Brazil 🇧🇷.
She's a beast!
Tessa!! 🔥🔥🔥
Tessa ate that a$$ up
I knew South Carolina would beat them bums Let's Gooooooooo
Unreal game…insane roster that South Carolina has and they are all young !! Caitlin Clark was ridiculous in the first quarter but s Carolina had way too much of everything and they eventually wore them down. Congrats to South Carolina !! The best team won…I have never seen a player like Caitlin Clark who made me believe the miracle could happen in the 1st quarter…she is the best I have ever seen…I also like seeing teams show class wether they win or lose so mad respect to Staley, s Carolina and Iowa…good stuff..,
@Show_time3 You dont watch female basketball
@@Redridge07 you can’t tell me another player that played 40 minutes per game with teams guarding them full court and switching different defenders and their whole game plan to stop her and take a team of 3 stars to back to back finals….i watch a helluva lot of bball…and you can have your opinion but I am allowed mine so my opinion is correct…because it is mine…..but let me ask you, has any other player in woman’s bball had to overcome such a huge talent gap and been this successful ???…
@@Show_time3 yep, even if your opinion does make in logic sense
Did Iowa really expect to be SC with playing only five to SC’s 9?
A big difference in the game. South Carolina had NINE players they could play who are all good. Iowa can only rely on their starters. S.C. wore them down.
One man teams never win the championship ...
Tessa...❤❤❤....She and M. Fulwiley will crack the South Carolina Lady Gamecocks starting lineup next year...Tessa...Fulwiley...Raven Johnson...Ashlyn Watkins...Chloe Kitts...❤❤❤...
THEY HAVE A GREAT STARTING 5 AND A BENCH ,AND THEY PLAYED GREAT D ON CLARK ..the girl on LSU was struggling lol
Painful watching Clark attempt to play defense...
Revenge game S.C.
SC have Size and Depth, IOWA are small team.
Hmmm, that's funny. At any rate, nobody was using that excuse when Iowa came straight out the gate in the 1st quarter and took a 10 - 0 lead over SC expecting a blowout.
@knyyghtrydaa2084
And when they beat them last year. Now the goalpost moves.
Paul Pierce what you got to say now how about the black girls
I don't think Chloe is black lol but way to keep the racism going idot
That Right There!!
Tough shots all day!
People keep saying this is a super team while these are freshmans putting in work. This is the reason why you get so much feedback about Caitlin Clark because many other people are being overlooked. Reality will set in even more when the WNBA gets their hands on Clark after the target being put on her back.
This is how you know people think scoring is everything . She was 5th best in the team
