UConn did about as good a job as a team can in containing Clark, but the star's teammates stepped up under the big lights.
It was tight the entire game and the chatter online was fantastic. It was fascinating to see Iowa — a No. 1 seed but a historically weaker program elevated by a single great player — take on the legendary UConn. People online loved it.

There was some controversy, however. A late offensive foul call against UConn helped decide the outcome. Most folks didn't argue there wasn't a foul on the play — UConn set a pretty straightforward moving screen — but rather people thought the call shouldn't have been made in the final moments of the game. In the end, though, it was a foul and the call was made. It all but sealed things for Iowa.
Some folks joked and hypothesized that ESPN wanted Clark in the final. Others pointed out that there was a foul and the call was correct. Even into Saturday afternoon, the arguments kept on going.

Up next? Iowa will play the South Carolina Gamecocks on Sunday to decide a champion. It'll certainly be an interesting game. The Hawkeyes have Clark, sure, but South Carolina hasn't lost a game all year. It'll be a heck of a matchup and you can rest assured folks will be arguing about it online.
