It's time for another upset (or two) in this tournament. Of the 8 games remaining in the sub-regionals that will be played on Monday evening, 6 feature a clear-cut favorite. (The other two games, #4UCLA--#5Texas A&M and #4Louisville--#5 Tennessee are pretty much a pick-em.)

So, if you had to pick a team to pull off an upset tonight, which one would it be? The teams are listed with their respective regional seeding rank.

Can't decide? Okay, you get to choose up to three upsets. Zero isn't a choice though (no risk, no reward).

Poll closes at 6:30 PM EDT.

Good luck!

It wasn't me who picked Syracuse. Here's my evidence:

Apparently we have a traitor among us ...I mean a troll. :eek:

My three were Quinnipiac, (Keep the dream alive), Oklahoma (good size and athletic) and Oregon (Well coached and fearless freshmen).

If the Q can put together 2 good halves or 4 quarters they will win. Against Marquette they lead by a big score in the first half and let Marquette come back and almost lost the game.

Oregon and its super frosh Sabrina Ionescu are getting better and better. Won't be a big upset if it happens. Washington, despite the talents of Plum, is vulnerable. Oklahoma could pull it off.

I voted Quinnipiac & K State. Although, the Quinnipiac game is probably a long shot. I am pulling for them though.

So you're saying you want to see him in a ladies basketball uniform? You know how much he spends on those suits? He couldn't live without his flashy glasses either. They don't make sports goggles that cool.

I voted for Syracuse - a mojo thing. The other 2 ... I can't remember. Ah, Oregon over Duke and Okla over Wash.

Oklahoma can definitely beat UW. One big factor for Oklahoma against Gonzaga was their complete domination in the paint. GU had no one strong enough to match up w/ Pierre-Lewis (17 pts. 9 reb. 9 blocks in that game). She will find it a bit more challenging battling in the post w/ Osahor than she did against the Zags. 3 point shooting will be another key. OU was 10-23 in the first round, UW was 7-29.

Stanford is rolling and Oregon has a narrow lead over Duke. Maybe these Pac 12 teams aren't so bad after all.

KSU is face guarding Karlie Samuelson. She has no shots. She sat after her 2nd foul. To be up by 18 and not have Karlie, shoot is pretty good for Stanford.

I think McPhee is undervalued, she's having a nice game (16 at the half). Smith off the bench has been big for the Cardinal down the stretch of the season. She's probably their best post player currently. At least offensively.

I got the Oregon underdog win 1/1 so far. They look very interesting. very well coached. Oklahoma and Quinnipiac next.

Sorry to see Duke lose. Probably a result of Lambert being out. That likely contributed to Greenwall's poor game. Hate to see someone lose due to injury.
