There are numerous great upsets along the way. There a few points that contribute to the magnitude of this one last night as "biggest" under certain definitions.
1) Baylor has in many maybe most corners been considered the prohibitive favorite to win it all. It has been said it was Baylor and the rest or Baylor and CT and the rest, or Baylor, CT and ND and the rest, but the common denominator has been Baylor.
2) After falling behind CT by 10 Baylor came back strong against UCONN's defense dominating the game late to win by 6.
3) The season started as to whether anyone could win "a" game against Baylor this season and might they be set up for a shot at UCONN's consecutive win streak at the start of next season.
4) When Baylor was beaten it was because Sims played about 5 minutes against Stanford in the loss.
5) The loss occurred during the tournament in the Regional before lots of viewers and when everyone knows it is one and done.
6) Baylor trailed but as much as 18 to L-ville.
7) Griner was essentially ineffective the whole game against a team with one player over 6'2".
8) L-ville looked to be in chaos as Baylor completed the comeback to take the lead with just 7 seconds and everyone thought it was over.
9) L-ville's key player Shoni Schimmel fouls out, Sarah Hammond fouls out, Bria Smith fouls out and Vails has 4. These key players are out of the game.
10) Baylor completed the comeback with 7 seconds left to take the lead. It all seems to be over. The world exhales.
11) Suddenly, the world gasps as Monique Reid who just missed the front end of a critical 1and 1 drives the length of the court to get fouled at the basket and steps up to the line for a team with no hope in overtime because of those players now relagated to the bench and makes 2 FTs with 2.5 seconds and the whole world is changed and the tournament becomes wide open.
