are allowed to leave the bench area in

04:04

order to help break up a fight or

04:06

anything that breaks out yeah you got to

04:08

leave that to the coaches to get the

04:11

separation fans do not belong on the

04:28

floor

04:36

so the officials at the monitor again

04:38

taking a look at this you see you can

04:40

see them making notes there is a lot to

04:43

look at

04:45

here yeah they've got to figure out how

04:48

they're going to assess how they're

04:49

going

04:50

to give out the

04:52

penalties as a head coach what are you

04:54

doing in the huddles right now after

04:56

something like this happens number one

04:57

you are talking to your team about get

04:59

get your emotions in check if you are

05:02

South Carolina you're talking to your

05:04

team look we are in the lead right now

05:06

and we don't want to lose the lead by

05:08

giving up with technical fouls or giving

05:11

them freebies at the free throw line if

05:13

you're Kim Moy you're telling your team

05:15

I understand that you are wanting to

05:17

play hard and you're playing for your

05:19

player that's not here in last year POA

05:21

and in order to do that we have to take

05:23

care of business on the floor and

05:26

playing the game you're making a run in

05:30

the

05:46

moment take a look at this again it

05:49

starts right here F Johnson holds on to

05:51

milaysia full Wy commits the

05:54

foul and then there's a scuffle between

05:56

Ashlin Watkins and Camila cardoso

05:59

comes in and shoves to the

06:04

ground that's when a fan who Brooke

06:06

Weiss bro has just told us was F

06:08

Johnson's brother leaps out of the

06:10

stands onto the

06:22

court keep in mind if you're a player on

06:25

the bench whereas the coaches can help

06:27

break up a fight players on the bench

06:28

cannot if they were to leave the bench

06:30

area they would be

06:32

[Applause]

06:34

ejected the goal is to keep them over

06:36

there keep them safe and away and keep

06:39

anything from

06:41

[Applause]

06:47

escalating you see all the coaches

06:49

trying to hold their players

06:53

back I think most of the players that

06:56

were involved were already on the

06:58

floor

07:20

so they're looking at Camila cardoso

07:22

right now too but we saw something

07:23

happened to her lip on the play before

07:25

this all

07:27

happened well you kind of see saw all of

07:30

this boiling up there was a lot of it

07:32

just talked about players were drawing

07:34

at each other back and forth I mean

07:37

these are two of the top teams in the

07:40

SEC they're battling for that top

07:43

spot look and after everything that we

07:46

just

07:47

saw with player

07:50

ejections I'm sure there's some coming

07:52

because of what we saw shoving we saw

07:58

pushing we 2 minutes and 8 seconds left

08:00

in this ball game and it's a seven-point

08:19

game they broke it up as quickly as they

08:22

could the coaches tried to get in there

08:25

to have

08:28

separation is watching the LSU

08:40

bench and the staff did the best that

08:43

they could to try to hold players

08:50

back and then on the South Carolina side

08:53

yeah look on the left side of your

08:54

screen at the South Carolina

08:58

bench

09:07

play yeah players cannot leave the bench

09:14

area coaches can in order to help break

09:17

up a

09:18

fight and see the officials have a pen

09:21

and paper there to keep track of

09:23

everything and what they see happening

09:26

from both

09:28

benches

09:46

here's the start of

09:53

this I think Camila

09:58

cardoso should be

10:01

ejected she came up

10:04

and shoved an opponent to the floor but

10:08

you also had F Johnson that did the push

10:11

off as well yes before that the

10:14

officials have been at the monitor we've

10:15

seen them with the pen and paper now

10:17

they're conferring with each other all

10:22

three the ejections would be more costly

10:25

to LSU cuz they have a limited a limited

10:28

bench as it is is

10:38

yes LSU has stayed huddled up this

10:41

entire time over on their side of the

10:53

floor no question this is not what we

10:56

want to see at the end of a championship

10:57

game we want to see good basketball we

10:59

want to see competitive women but we we

11:01

don't want to see it escalate

11:05

absolutely sportsmanship discipline is
