Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 5158455, member: 12088"] After watching the UCLA Michigan game today, I’d say UCLA must be the prohibitive favorite to win the NC. Michigan played them tough, which speaks well for their freshmen. But something about the way UCLA was able to extend the lead in bunches whenever it got close made me think of them as winners. SC looks like the closest to them in terms of talent. And I would never underestimate Cori’s ability to underperform in a tournament. But that’s a different sort of consideration. Below these I’d put ND, on the assumption that Maddy comes back strong. And then Texas USC LSU NC St and UConn in no particular order. ND and UConn are waiting for players to return and return to form, so it’s not so easy to tell how to place them. They could both overperform or falter. As a Husky fan, I focus on the upside for UConn. But ND has some serious upside too and appears to be closer to their best form. [/QUOTE]
