Huge upset in women's basketball- UConn loses

[Da Coach]

UConn women's basketball had won 111 games in a row, only 3 of them by less than double digits. And they had won the last 4 women's D1 national championships. They were the overwhelming favorites to win the national championship again this season, but tonight in one of the semifinal games, Mississippi State, a #2 seed beat UConn 66-64 in overtime.

Thank you Mississippi State Women's BB....was kinda getting tired of hearing about UConn being unbeatable

Observations from watching the tape...
-UConn caught a huge break on a rebound that Mississippi State got with 26 seconds left in OT -
Some contact under the basket and a little overacting that resulted in NO CALL - then got reviewed by videotape and the refs retroactively called a flagrant foul and gave UConn 2 FTs which allowed them to tie the game 64-64. It may or may not have been the right call at that time in the game - it's purely a judgement call but it was huge for UConn.

I only saw bits and pieces but I thought Miss St. caught a break at the end too with no foul called on UConn player's drive to the basket....lots of contact in the lane on that play.....both coaches and players handled it all with class....
