What would be your top 5 Most Dangerous NCAA Women's Tournament Teams this year? Here is my list so far:

Lousiville
University of Oregon
Kentucky
DePaul
Ohio State

I don't believe there is a potential 4-seed in the country that wants to deal with NCState as a potential 5 seed. I expect the Wolfpack Women will be sent to either Lexington or Columbus.

As a number of teams proved last year, any team that gets hot from the second game on can be a real threat to a higher seed that doesn't bring their A game. Your list is pretty good, but any team with three point shooters can be scary as that is the great equalizer, hit 50% of better and take a lot and even if you can't defend worth beans you will be in the game.

If you're including 4 seeds, then gotta have UCLA.
I would also say NC state, Syracuse, and Tenn.
I can't believe I forgot UCLA. They are much improved, and very dangerous. They could take down OSU tonight.

And with the way folks rave about Jordan Canada. Great guards can be decisive in a tourney game.

I agree with the post abut TN. They are just chaotic enough to cause real trouble if the sun, moon and stars align.

Tennessee.

They play down or up to the level of competition.

They'll either no-show and lose in the first round against a #10 seed, or make a run to the S16/E8 while knocking off a few Top 10 teams in the process.

I hope Tennessee plays well in the tourney. Let them take out as many of the top teams as possible. It just makes UConn's path to #12 that much easier, so if they want to do some of the heavy lifting for us, I won't complain.

That is the issue for the TN AD and teams meeting them in the big dance..

You say that as if you haven't seen her play? She's a straight-up baller.

I'm not one of the 12 people east of the Rockies with the PAC12 network.

UCLA's games at Baylor, South Carolina, and Washington were shown on Fox or ESPN2.

Didn't UConn play UCLA with Canada a few years ago? She is good.

MODS @HuskyNan @Js111 @Biff - I HEREBY CALL FOR THIS PERSON TO BE CITED FOR CRIMES AGAINST (boneyard) HUMANITY, AND SENTENCED TO IMMEDIATE BANISHMENT.
Bringing home #12 is not going to be easy like it was last year where you just roll the ball out there and tell Stewie, Mo, and Tuck how much you want to win by. I'll be happy with Tennessee playing well and taking out a Texas or Baylor or ND or South Carolina or any other top 10 team that potentially stands in our way of a championship. Like I said, if they, or any other team for that matter, can do some of the heavy lifting, I won't complain even if that team wears orange.

I might have accepted a temporary insanity defense. Instead you have shown a WILLFUL DISREGARD FOR LAW AND ALL STANDARDS OF DECENCY.

THIS WAS A WILLFUL AND PREMEDITATED CRIME WHICH SICKENS ME TO THE CORE.

I don't think they get you, vg. These young 'uns - what are you going to do?

Nobody is picking a mid-major to pull an upset. Watch out, there are some good mid-majors out there!!
