1st world problems
I would like to +1 this gif, but Army gave me a new hand.
How is women's college basketball a #1 seed ? I mean yeah i root for Michigan in women's basketball, but I care not more than any michigan sport.
It's just like, one play, bruh.
Because it was an incredible play to win the National Championship
I don't think you're going to catch Arike. Her shot was dope. She deserves it too. She was clutch AF down the stretch for Notre Dame as much as I don't like to give any credit to the Domers.
I'm of course voting for Poole, but I have a problem with it being a 16 seed. Seriously, WTF?
Still, much respect to ND women's buzzer beater (even though it's ND), that shit was insane.
It's all about the rivalry though! UM > ND always.
C'mon ESPN, you can't be bothered to have clips of the highlights in the poll?
Huge uncalled foul on ND right before that.
Poole’s shot was cold-blooded, but he doesn’t hold a candle to ND’s Arike Ogunbowale did in the Women’s Final Four. Two straight buzzer beaters, one against arguably the most dominant team in modern American sports history in UConn women’s basketball.
She earns whatever accolades she gets.
That Poole shot though!
Not saying I don't love his shot. And his shot means more to me personally than her's did. But if I'm an unbiased observer, and disregard the fact that it's women's basketball vs. men's basketball, I'm going with the woman who hit two buzzer beaters in two straight Final Four games to win a national title over a man who hit one buzzer beater to make the Sweet Sixteen.
What she did, in my mind, is far more impressive.
Doesn't hold a candle?
Poole's shot was better. It was more difficult and it determined the difference between win and lose whereas Ogunbowale's just determined the difference between win and overtime. Poole was clutch; her shot had no pressure.
Her shot was no pressure? Dude, her shots were for the right to play for a national title, and to win a national title. She made one of those shots against one of the most dominant teams in modern American sports history
Again, I love Poole and that shot he made was cold blooded. That shot means far more to me personally than what ND did. But she made the far bigger shots. And she made twice as many of them.
It's singular play, so the other shot isn't being factored in. The game it won was bigger, but the shot itself wasn't as impressive as well as it being win or lose with Poole and not with ND.
