70 - 55 UConn wins controlling the game from start to finish.

Huskies 80 - Cardinal 57

UConn comes out swinging and connects with an overhand right square to the jaw in the 1st Round. Stanford never fully recovers from the daze. From there it gets worse, as Stanford can't match UConn's speed and can't afford to get into a running game. But trailing early, that's exactly where they'll find themselves and their struggles will compound from there.

81-68 uconn. This could be Day 2 of four glorious days of uconn basketball. Fingers crossed. since December 30 2010 when the streak was broken, uconn is 3-0 against Stanford with double-digit victories each time. I'd take any sort of a win here, but the recent past dictates 10+ points.

I hate to be so close to Alex but I'm going with 81-66

I think it could be kinda close...68 60, good guys. I hope I'm wrong, but they have really grown and have a great coach.

I think this is going to be a lot closer than most people think but the Huskies will eventually pull it out in the end. 72-67 UConn

78-58, UConn. With two and sometimes three "bigs" guarding in the paint, Stanford will be forced
to try and get their points from behind the Arc. Lotsa luck, Tree!

I don't see our shooting picking up all of a sudden, it's going to be another grind.

UConn 69-58 Stanford, with the margin not really representative of a game that will be played at a 4-8 point margin for most of the second half. We won't have ever been threatened, but it's not going to be comfortable at all.

How about UConn winning 72-59 with their defense again leading the way.

Both my thoughts and my score exactly.

I still say it will be UCONN by between 15-20. I think in my analysis thread I said something like UCONN 74, Stanford 58, so i'll go with that...

The problem the in the NCAA's hasn't been the play of Moriah, KML or Stef. The problem has been Bria and Stewie, especially the last 2 games. Frankly, I just don't see how they can continue to have sub par games. IF both of them do, then the predictions of an 8-10 point win are probably accurate. However, if they are "on" at all, watch out - Tony's prediction is more accurate...

If Stanford needs to play with a chip on their shoulder, so be it. I would think that the chance to play for the National Championship would be motivation enough. Stanford has improved; however, KML is healthy, Moriah is way beyond where she was in their first meeting and they won two games without playing their best. UConn 74-64.

If the shots are falling we win by 20+. If they are not falling, we win by maybe 12.
