Magic Month for NCAA Women's Basketball: Nicole Auerbach Sees Final Score as 'Unpredictable'!
Check out how Nicole Auerbach sees the women's NCAA Tournament playing out.
These UConn Huskies do not have a weakness. I might talk myself into individual players and/or teams that could give them trouble, but I'm not going to pick any team in this field to upset the unbeaten Huskies. I penciled in this championship game matchup as soon as the teams were announced, and I do hope we get it.
UConn and UCLA have been the two best teams in women's college hoops by a good margin, and I'll be shocked if the title game features anyone else. I went back and forth over my final two Final Four participants. I didn't want to go all chalk with all four No.
1 seeds — and South Carolina is a lot more human than it was a few years back — so I went with Iowa and Michigan, two teams that I have seen play extraordinarily well. I believe in their ceilings, although I acknowledge both have tough No. 3 seeds in their regions in addition to their respective No.
1 seeds. I didn't pick a ton of upsets, but I do think there are a number of intriguing potential second-round games even if the first round is chalky. We'll potentially get Audi Crooks and Iowa State against Sarah Strong and UConn in the second round!
