Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 5121297, member: 2117"] Most significant to me would be: 1. 1995 title game vs Tennessee, this put UCONN on the map in a big way, was the first title 2. 2003 title game vs Tennessee, I think this game was UCONN's most underdog title after losing so much talent and it signaled that they were a serious threat to surpass Tennessee for most titles in women's basketball. It also was the standout game of Taurasi's career. 3. 2016 title game vs Syracuse, established a 4 peat which had never been done before. Stewart going 4/4 for MOP will likely never be matched and will never be beat. It's also the program's last championship win. 4. 1996 Final Four game vs Tennessee, it was an epic game that UCONN lost but it was the first time Tennessee proved they could finish win and this catapulted the rivalry to a different level. The UCONN-Tennessee rivalry defined women's basketball for more than a decade and took the sport to new heights. 5. 2017 Final Four game vs Mississippi State, one of the biggest upsets in NCAA history, on a buzzer beater no less. This game ended UCONN's death grip on the sport and paved way for a new age where competition was stronger and UCONN was no longer a lock to win it all. [/QUOTE]
