How much will the USC game predict a match-up with uconn?....

Uconn put a 25 point beat down on the game hens in their house but it could have been 50 if uconn had wanted. The husky girls coasted the entire second half.

The question is, since USC now has to turn around and play us in the hump, how much of a gauge will our game with USC be relative to a potential match-up with uconn in the tourney?

I think the outcome of monday's game will likely indicate that uconn is the better team but then they beat USC by 11 last year who beat us 3 times and we know what happened in Dallas. As someone said then, if we played em 100 times we might lose 99 of them but then we only have to win ONCE.

Very little. Regardless of what happens Monday night, I think UConn has about a 70-30 chance of beating us if we play.

I agree. Watching highlights, UCONN looks long and quick at every position. Maybe it was just optics, but I can’t see us matching them at very many positions.

Its all about matchups... UCONN 's perimeter game vs our inside game...our perimeter game is strong too, but they have more shooters... I see McCowan being the key, she has to be on....but Missouri is like a less talented UCONN and we struggled against them last nite... that being said we will probably get screwed on the seeding and have to go to west coast and run into a RAT...

Baylor scares me a whole lot, too... they’re another team I’m hoping and praying is on the other side of the bracket come March.

Baylor’s women’s basketball coach is Kramer Robertson’s mom? I had never heard that before.***

Hate to say if we meet UCONN and play as bad as we did thursday night -they'll beat us by 30 .

Well yeah, IF we play like we did last night. We won't. What if they play like they did the night they barely beat Texas? We'll beat them if they play like that. Of course, they won't play like they did that night either. Can't judge a team on one bad game.
