Message: [QUOTE="Gamecockfan77, post: 4091316, member: 6414"] I think South Carolina would have won more meetings than not with UConn last year but I agree with the idea that Stanford might as well start at #1. I have no idea how to rank the teams this year so let's just start where they finished. I think Stanford was easily the best team last year from start to finish and I believe they have good depth and balance and lots of upside with Haley Jones and Brink. Haley Jones is the kind of difficult matchup playmaker that can win games. South Carolina was a bit short handed at end of the season but had no one to match up great with her aside from Beal who Stanford was able to force onto other defenders. UConn was really one dimensional scoring wise and I think was pretty average at several spots in their lineup. How Stanford copes with losing Williams and how much depth and scoring the other two add will tell the tale. Of course there are 4-6 other teams that could knock off all three in my view. [/QUOTE]
