It was a Great season for UConn, but Cinderella lives in Tuscon!!

In their two losses to Stanford the kitties led through much of the first quarter. For the epic upset to occur a combination of ice cold Connecticut shooting and Aari McDonald going off in the first quarter could make for a very interesting game. The kitties use that trapping defense and have a ability to disrupt passing lanes. So thinking about the possibility of an upset if Liv picks up two stupid fouls in the first quarter and AE does the same that would certainly level the playing field.

While I do think the kitties have a amazing defense I'm not sure they can hold Connecticut to a season low of 59. Marquette and South Carolina held the Huskies to 63. So the question becomes if the kitties can somehow hold Uconn to 63 can McDonald score 64?

The MOJO Gods have warned me not to make a prediction for this game, so I will honor them.

Arizona has to play a slow-down game to have a chance. They have to pack it in and hope UConn guards are off on their three-point shooting. They have only averaged 50 pts in their losses to Stanford and UCLA. So therefore
UConn 66-50
