Louisville looks to be our only competition in the AAC. (maybe Rutgers a little). But both only for 1 more year.TN is a distant memory, ND loses Skyler, Baylor loses BG, who's next?
I hope somebody rises to the occasion
maybe Louisville if they start to land some top recruits

Tennessee may not be old news for long. That game will end back on the schedule at some point.
The reason that the ND-UCONN rivalry got so big was that ND actually beat UCONN (and more than a few times !). ESPN and other networks will live on the 2-7 UCONN vs. ND record in the last 9 games as long as they can. Some other team will have to do something vs. the Huskies to generate another rivalry.
You forgot about this year's signees. I believe Louisville lost the recruiting battle for every Top 20 recruit (Russell, Greenwell, Chong, etc.) Did anyone notice any major talent headed to Louisville in this most recent class (2013)?Louisville gets I think three injured players back and only really loses Reid who was a shadow of her former self after all her problems, so they should be very good ...
However, with that said, still need to play some games out on the west coast. Besides Stanford, I would like to see games scheduled against UCLA, Cal & possibly USC. Would like to see the team in California on an annual basis.
Agree can never count them out.Let's not count out ND yet. I thought they lost a lot last year, and would be happy to crack top ten.
Forget . They'll never give us a game.I'd throw Duke into the mix. I know they got blown out with basically the same personnel but they have a lot of great talent.
Of these only MD and ND could give us trouble.Louisville gets I think three injured players back and only really loses Reid who was a shadow of her former self after all her problems, so they should be very good.
Rutgers - we'll see. I think CViv needs a truly dynamic scorer for her team to be successful and she hasn't had that in a while and not sure she has it next year.
OOC - Maryland, Duke, ND (?), UNC (?), Stanford (?), Cal (?), Kentucky (?), TN (?) PSU (?)
Yes, let's tour the west coast; come home with an average MoV of 30+ points.I'll go out on a limb and say it will be North Carolina. Have to believe after next year, UNC will do everything it can to get on UConn's schedule on a yearly basis. Playing UConn gets a team more publicity then any other team can get them & that includes the Lady Vols.

That's the limb I was about to go out on, too. Hardly much of a limb, rather a trunk, with UNC adding 25-30 McD AAs over the next couple of years.I'll go out on a limb and say it will be North Carolina.
