Excellent analysis.  I would add one additional element to the UConn vs Iowa seeding question under two Selection Committee’s key considerations, “Total Body of Work” and “injuries.”

If UConn and Iowa are close for the last #1 seed then the committee has to consider the battle between the two teams that took place in November on a neutral court in Portland, OR.  In that game, Iowa had all their key players.  But UConn was playing without Dorka.

Clark had a good, but not great game, being harassed constantly by Nika.  Czinano, Iowa’s other star, was largely shut down and completely outplayed by Aaliyah.  Azzi exploded in the 2nd half, totaling 24 points, putting away the game for the Huskies down the stretch.

Azzi is back and Dorka is currently playing the best basketball of her career.  Considering the outcome of the game between UConn & Iowa earlier this season, it would be very difficult to elevate the Hawkeyes over the Huskies.
