I don't think I would give it to anyone until several games into the season. I will say this, Paige and almost anyone would be a pretty good bet (if 100% healthy and 100% back). A little like the DT era. Want to play 2x2? I'll take DT and almost anyone else (although I would prefer StewieTough call.
AA HM and AA vs NPOY (coming back from injury) and never played College ball.
But if you take off rose colored glasses and look at it like that, probably have to give it to LSU.

You also need to factor in who from this past year will not be on the roster. Losing Dorka and Lou is not insignificant.The real comparison is between;
LSU: #2 transfer Hailey Van Lith, #3 transfer Morrow, #2 Williams, #7 Del Rosario, #44 Velez, #73 Kent
UConn: #1 Paige, #1 Azzi, #5 Caroline, #5 Ice, #6 KK, #15 Ashlynn, #41 Q, unknown Jana
That is what each team has coming in that were either not there or who were either wholly or partially compromised last season.
Losing Morris and Williams is not insignificant either. I’d say they are about even.You also need to factor in who from this past year will not be on the roster. Losing Dorka and Lou is not insignificant.
