Presuming Charlie Creme and most everybody else will have UConn, So Carolina and Notre Dame as #1 Seeds. Who's your 4th?

While I don't think they're the 4th best team, I think TX has a good chance to go undefeated if they can beat Baylor, and if they did would probably get the fourth #1.
 
I didn't vote because I don't see ND in the final 4 this year. I think 3 of last year's semi-finalists return, but ND watches the championship this year. ND has had key injuries, the Reimer situation, the early departure of Loyd and they're beating lesser teams by very small margins.

I just don't see them having a better chance than Ohio State, UCLA, Texas, Baylor, etc. Tennessee could very well get it together and end up a better team by the tournament.
 
I voted for Texas. As the above poster stated the Baylor/Texas games will be key. Ohio State was very impressive on the road against Maryland. I like to see what happens in the rematch game. Yesterday was the first game I thought Maryland really missed Lexie Brown. I also like to see what happens in the Gillespie situation. I have no confidence in Warlick and Tennessee to get pass the Sweet 16.

I think UCONN / Baylor / SoCar / & TX at this point of the season have the best shots of making the Final Four.
I think KY & MD have an outside shot of making the FF.
If a team has very good big girls they can beat ND.
 
If Brianna Turner is healthy, I think ND gets to the Final Four as they'll outscore everyone they meet. However poll question is who's the 4th #1 seed, not who going to the Final Four? :) Based on ND's projected record, they'll be a #1 seed.

She played well against Pittsburgh yesterday -- 20 points -- because Pitt shut down the outside and ND had an off day with decision making. She's really the key for the Irish, because she gives them an inside/outside balance and the fact is Mabrey2/Ogunbowale are going to have frosh moments. If Brianna's shoulder holds up, I think ND makes it. Will be tough, but they seem to find a way....
 
UConn is only one team that deserves a #1 seed. Everyone else is by default.

South Carolina / Texas/ Baylor lack shooters. Notre Dame is to small.

What's the "Gillespie situation"?

Cancel the tourney now as there appear to be no teams in the NCAA worth watching other than UCONN. I guess we will have to wait until next year to have 4 number 1 seeds in the tourney.

I voted for Maryland, despite their loss to OSU. I don't care if Baylor is a 1 or 2 seed as long as we are in the Dallas region. Other than UCONN I think Baylor has a shot at defeating any 1 seed.

Baylor. They may have the best backcourt in the country. A healthy Niya Johnson and Alexis Jones ... OH MY.

TEXAS will NOT go undefeated. They may finish with 4 to 6 losses.

I like you. I like you a lot.
 
It is going to be an interesting year - I am not sure I see any team except Uconn getting through their conference schedule/tournament unscathed - SC and ND have the best chances of doing that, but neither of them have looked that dominant and I think they will slip up one or more times. Baylor already had one slip and I am not sure TX has the experience to do it. OSU will lose somewhere along the line.
 
Everyone does understand the 4 starting guards for Texas shot 9 for THIRTY against Texas Tech ... 11 assist NINE turnovers as well from the 4. If this is a womens basketball number 1 seed ... OH MY :eek:

Which Alexis Jones ? The one that was 2/18 FG vs OSU, or the one that was 10/17 FG vs Oklahoma. Yes I know Johnson did not play against OSU - still 2/18 is terrible

Did you mean UConn is #1 seed by default, not everyone else?
 
UConn
South Carolina
Notre Dame
Texas / Baylor (whoever wins B12)
 
My vote depends on whether I'm seeding the field based on what's happened so far or projecting who the top seeds will be come March. If the tournament began today, I think Texas would have to be a #1 seed. When the tournament actually begins, I suspect Baylor will be.

Looking at who they will be playing (all Big 12) I don't see where those losses are going to come from. If they avoid injuries, the Big 12 is not that strong and I don't see anyone but Baylor beating them. It's possible they lose to Baylor 3 times (counting the conference tournament) and maybe one other game in the conference to get to 4 losses, but if they don't lose to Baylor (a big if I admit) I see a better than even chance of them going undefeated in the regular season.

Baylor will beat them twice, Okstate once, WVU once, I would not be shocked if Iowa St gets the W tomorrow. Texas is NOT consistent throughout a full season.

UCLA.

Agree with this...think it will become more apparent as conference plays goes on. UCLA just beat Oregon State by 20 last night and Jordin Canada is playing lights out.

Still mentally recovering from her ACL tear. 2 years ago she easily puts that Baylor team on her back without Niya. I think without Niya that game she put a lot of pressure on herself to lead. I think she needs to realize what she can and can not do until shes fully recovered mentally not just physically.

Just a few words for thought. prior to this game Lex previous meeting was against them in a NCAA tournament. She had a much more effective stat line. Nine points, seven assists, and 3 rebounds on just 2 of 6 shooting. Im convinced she was pressing too much in the absence of their all american point guard.

Jones had an off night against OSU, but that does not define her season. She is not the first player to ever have a bad shooting night.

I agree. Jones felt a lot of pressure trying to compensate for the absence of Johnson, plus, it was the first Big 12 game of her career. She is an incredible player that has the ability to take over a game. And she and Johnson are, IMO, the best guard tandem in WCBB.

I think the people in Columbus, Ohio might disagree with you on this. Can't wait to see the first Texas/Baylor game in a couple of weeks though.
