I'm predicting two losses and a conference championship for the 2018-19 team going into the NCAA tournament.  And that's a good thing... the last thing I'd want is for the team is to again head into the tournament undefeated on the season.

For me, by far the biggest downside for next year's team is no Azura.  Yes, she could be inconsistent last year, and probably was a net liability in the second half of the national semi-final.  But she would have been an absolute monster next year had she stayed, and with the development of others like Megan, on balance the roster would remained as good as it was.

Last year, Notre Dame proved that a motley crew can win a national championship in any given year if its players are properly motivated and well coached.  And  UConn proved that the most talented team in the nation can fall short.  That gives us more than a puncher's chance next season, and makes me a believer that number 12 could happen.
