The Gamecocks were victorious and defeated the Hawkeyes with a concluding score of 87-75. The game was being shown live on a sports network ESPN, and commentary was done by the former icons of the WNBA, Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi, from “The Bird & Taurasi Show”.
The traditional play-by-play was also taking place. The “Pulp Fiction” actor did not have positive remarks for any of them. He also critiqued the game coverage provided by the ABC as well.

Jackson indicated in his remarks that the 2024 national champions were being deprived of attention as ABC network’s Holly Rowe, Rebecca Lobo, and Ryan Ruocco spent more time discussing Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes.
