Aaliyah could be key in a Baylor matchup.

UCONN has to get by High Point first

I can’t believe DePaul didn’t make the field. I was expecting at least 3 big east teams in. I guess recency bias comes into play cause they haven’t been great lately.
Charlie Creme had DePaul as the last team in & BYU as the first team out. The committee thought otherwise.

There was no UConn to cut to, so they had to put something there. All the other teams they are showing the watch parties.
UConn never really does that sort of show watching photo op.

I think this was done because in the past there was criticism of going into too many stories about teams while revealing the bracket. I'm happy they got the bracket announced, and they have time left to talk about stories now.
Nope! Tthey just focused on Stanford's travels & the two black coaches in the SEC tournament. Very little commentary on matchups or seedings.

No, he had UCF as his last team in and Mississippi State as first out.
He had DePaul as next-to-last in and BYU as 4th team out.

They have another hour of programming on ESPNU to breakdown the bracket after this reveal. This is where I'd expect them to break down matchups.

ESPN has an article with Stanford as the #1 Overall --

"
Stanford: The No. 1 overall seed, the Cardinal won the last of their two NCAA titles in 1992, basically forever ago. But they are the only team in their regional that has won a national championship."

We're all confused, I know

Women's bracket winners, losers and what Auriemma's absence means for UConn
If UCONN is playing Baylor, then they are #2 & Baylor is #7. Stanford is #1 because they are playing #8 Louisville. No way Louisville is ranked ahead of Baylor.

This is a pretty bad selection special.

That just means they made NC State #3 and SC #4.

TAMU is #5 and MD is #6, and so they had to deviate from S-curve pairing TAMU with NC State.

They only do it if the team wants to be on tv. UConn hasn’t done that in years.
