South Carolina is the new UConn and now even though Geno's program still deserves respect, it shouldn't be considered close to unbeatable like it once was.

Let us be honest that conference stinks. Big Ten has 5 teams ranked and Big East has one.

It was a great game to watch. Lady Vols have had some near misses recently and closed the deal on this one. They play a fun style of play and they seem to have a good young coach. Hopefully RU can do that soon….

Paige B is a very good player, but she’s no Caitlin Clark although the commentators try to make her like she is (so annoying). UCONN is going to have a tough time staying relevant in that terrible conference of glorified high school teams. Geno has to be the only reason recruits go there. Once he retires, could become the next LaTech.

The way UConn plays, Paige Bueckers isn't asked to be Caitlin Clark. She is extremely talented, but from what I've read, doesn't tend to enforce her will on a game.

The effect of UConn being in the Big East is a bit more complicated; given his strong OOC competition, he can earn high seeding that other teams in his conference can only dream of. That said, it isn't a one bid league, probably 2 this year but could maybe eke out 4 in a really good year. The payout to UConn due to being in the BE is probably part of the concern.

Currently, they win plenty. I still wouldn't bet against them as a potential Final Four team. That said, I wouldn't bet on them winning the championship.
