Upset Alert!

I was tempted to pick TAMU or Stanford - I think both have a shot - but WCBB is generally predictable so I went with "none."

 

[MSGRET]

The way that both Buffalo and CMU have played, I believe one of them might just pull an upset. If Duke plays the way they did against Georgia, they will end up losing to UConn by 40 points.

 

[Zanzman]

That wouldn’t be an upset

I voted for Stanford defeating Louisville, but really appreciate the 6 votes for Oregon State--thank you!

 

[Vowelguy]

Surprised so many have MAC winning again. I give that very very low probability.

I can't put my finger on it but there is something about that Oregen St. Baylor match up that I think is going to be interesting......

Not a knock on Louisville, but I think Stanford is the most likely upset. I would be happy w/ 2 Pac 12 teams in the Elite 8, I'd be ecstatic w/ 3 or more.

I don't know about 40. 30 sounds about right. SCar is going to have a rougher time than expected against the Buffs. Most of us have been around too long to underestimate Tara. I just don't think she has enough talent this year. They could make it interesing though.

Not really! The more games Tara looses better it is for Geno's stats. I have nothing against Tara, she is a tremendous defense oriented coach but home cooking comes first!

In another thread, I thought OSU could give Baylor a game and possibly upset them, but there are too many "if's" and I think there may be too much pressure on frosh Taya Corosdale to match up against Lauren Cox.

Stanford's has the touch at Lexington the last two years, but I'm not sure they have enough horses on offense to take down Louisville.

My gut for an upset is N.C. State over Mississippi State. The Wolfpack play good defense to begin with and if Wes Moore has a week to plan and his relatively short bench has a week to rest up, I think they can make scoring very difficult for the Bulldogs. I like Chelsea Nelson a bunch and think she can cause some issues with Miss. State. In any case, it will be tough game that will be decided on which team ekes out enough offense.

It starts with JACKET TOSS part deux.

 

[MilfordHusky]

I saw Oregon State in Maui and like them. Gulich is good and her backup is huge. I also think that Stanford is peaking and Louisville is fading.

There is something about the pesky Duck:

Well, with Kim there are other things to wish for too:

I completely agree with this. I may be totally off base here (probably am) but I think this game will be the one to watch tonight.

I hope Kim Mulkey learned from this one that you need a certain looseness in a jacket to be ready for the toss.
