I respectfully disagree, and gracious as you are, a little sandbagging going on here.  SC was certainly a top 4 team even after losing Watkins; and quite honestly a top 2 team by end of league tournaments.  Go back and look at Vegas odds.   Its just that SC did not match up well against UCONN.  Kind of like no one can match up against Curry, Klay, and Green in the prime (dont' get me started with KD).

SC has been masterful at building a team based on strong defense, rebounding and athletic players up and down the roster.  Last couple of years they got a strong boost in 3 pt efficiency with the addition of Tehina. For UCONN we've not been able to match this kind of SC team in years past, by and large because of injuries and depth and also to a certain extent had no real answer for Boston/Cardosa.   It will be exciting to see how this goes back in forth in the years that Geno has left, but the chess match is great for wcbb and I am excited to see how Dawn and SC do next year (in addition to UCLA).
