Did she have the all-time best single game performance for a MSU player in any sport tonight? This humble poster says yes.

Funny I just posted a similar thread. I think the answer is yes.

41 points in a game against a #1 seed, to take the program farther than it's ever gone? I can't think of one better.

Always fun when a player (one of ours) gets in the zone

on the Big Stage.

If this performance ain't it, it's in the conversation for sure. What a night she had. 41 points. 41 minutes. 0 turnovers.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

Has to be. I was in awe watching her.

 

[Hankp22]

I think so

I think it was the best individual performance I've seen by an MSU athlete. I don't know which is more impressive: the 41 points or 0 turnovers? She also forced the Baylor PG into possibly her worst performance of the year. It is pretty awesome to do that on a stage like that.

 

[57stratdawg]

On up there.

 

[Shooter McGavin.sixpack]

I agree. Like TBone said, it was an awe inspiring performance. There aren't enough adjectives to describe it. She was magnificent.

Yes. 41 points by a person that typically doesn't score, but knew she had to because of how well they defended inside was so clutch.

Dak at LSU was pretty close, but the 0 turnovers over 41 minutes at point guard is taking things to another level.

41 points and zero turnovers in a Final Four clinching win. No way it's not number one the list.

Didn't Burke Masters go 6-6 in the regional game he hit the game winning grand slam in? That and Dontae Jones' 28 points against #1 Kentucky in the SEC tournament championship game are the only other two that compare when you consider the huge stakes of the game.

Darryl Wilson had 27 points on 9-for-14 shooting while guarding future Hall of Famer Ray Allen in the 1996 Sweet 16. Allen still got 22, but he shot only 9-for-25 (36 percent).

Saturday was the three year anniversary of her Dad passing. She sobbed through tears during the post game interview that it was all for him.

Got dusty over here at my house for the little gal that was told by one coach she was too short to play in the SEC.

What a heart on this kid.

I call her little fry because she reminds me of a Spud

The Burke Masters game didn't send us to Omaha nor would we have been eliminated with a loss. We played FSU two more times. That was basically equivalent to Game 1 of a Super Regional.

Stat-wise that's the only legit comparison, but William did her thing in a higher stakes game.

 

[Bulldogg31]

This is crazy but McCowan's game in the Sweet 16 wasn't pretty damn impressive too. For about 10 minutes she looked like the greatest player in WBB history.
