Message: [QUOTE="Longtime fan, post: 4274931, member: 7093"] I believe this to be the situation: South Carolina is the better team, but UCONN can win. In the past, when UCONN showed up at the final they always won, because they had the better team. All they had to do was play their game, and they would win. At least four of those occasions featured Breanna Stewart. Aliyah Boston is the Breanna Stewart of South Carolina. So they are likely to win. However, they have not really been challenged yet. Louisville is the toughest team they have played, and both NC State and Stanford are much better than Louisville. So it is possible that the game UCONN presents will be a challenge South Carolina simply is not expecting. We have the players to win if they all play their " A" games. We can't have 19 turnovers. We can't miss " bunnies." And we have to hit shots both from the arc and mid-range. This is the national championship, and we must play like champions to win. The odds makers give UCONN a 28% chance of winning. And we do have Paige. [/QUOTE]
