Notre Dame. I was upset with them last night, but I actually like them..and know their players pretty well. Plus I like Muffet more than Mulkey.

for me it is the lesser of 2 evils. Baylor. i just can't bring myself to root for diggins or ND. i think UCONN beats Baylor next year anyway so it's not like Mulkey will win 2 NC's in a row, and after Griner, et all, leave, Baylor will be more of a top 10 team as opposed to a top 4 team.

Baylor.

I didn't see Odyssey Simms leaping into her teammates arms when they won a national semi final game they were predicted to win unlike another team last night. Shows me one team is all business and the other team is interested in show boating as much as the ultimate prize.

Baylor has their entire team back next year, hopefully if they win it this year they are not as motivated next year lol.

I voted neither because I can't decide.
Like Muffet over Mulkey.
Like Griner over anyone wearing green.
Big East Loyalty.
Hate to see an undefeated season longer than 39 and not by UConn
Dislike all the Notre Dame players.
Don't like Mulkey's winning percentage rising ... was tired of hearing she hit 300 Ws faster than anybody ... not looking forward to hearing that at every milestone.
Would like to see Griner win one NC and plan to see UConn deny her next year.
Would like to see nobody on ND win a NC.
It's so hard to decide.

I'll happily and vocally be rooting for Baylor to DESTROY Notre Dame!

I've got no problems with Baylor whatsoever and admire what a gritty, tough competitor Sims is. Stanford was my 2nd choice after UConn, but now it's all about Da Bears! Besides, I'm also rooting for DaddyChoc to win the Boneyard bracket and he's got Baylor. ;)

If y'all hear someone yelling "It must suck to be Notre Dame" after they lose tonight, that'll be me and I won't try to deny it! :cool:

It has to be Baylor. Griner is already all over ESPN, so I'm used to that, I just don't want the media to have another reason to indulge in their Skylar Diggans worship...

Baylor.

They have been all business all year and they deserve it this year. The whole team has been focused and has not slipped up once. I can't say 40-0 is better than 39-0. Does anyone say our 1995 undefeated year of 35-0 meant less than the three 39-0 years? No, it just means that more games were played, nothing all that special. Its all just numbers at this point; undefeated is undefeated no matter how you put it. I respect the Baylor program and players, they are a tough team and they have a tough coach (even if Kim can drive some people crazy with her outfits and sideline antics).

Notre Dame, on the other hand, is unbelievably cocky and showboat so much, it's obnoxious. I like Muffet and I think she is a good coach, but I do not like any of the players she is currently coaching. The three seniors and Diggins are so cocky and whiney at all times and they don't show respect for anyone else. The media's love affair with all of them, especially Skylar, is unbelievably annoying. The idea of that team holding up a National Championship trophy is painful and I hope I never have to see it.

Although I have never cared for Baylor .. 1) the whole Methodist vs Baptist rivalry 2) The way they left my former school to fend for themselves back in the mid 1990s with the whole SWC to Big 12 thing.... I will be a Bear fan for the 3rd straight game.

I dont like Notre Dame.... so I cant root for them (except when they play Tennessee or UNC) .... the fanbase comes across as arrogant and elitist .... dont care for the attitudes of the players.... tired of all of the Diggins publicity... and it would only get worse if ND won the title...... ... I dont like their uniforms..... dont really care for their fight song.... :rolleyes:

So GO BEARS !!! :p

Anyone but Notre Dame. Even Baylor. I can't stand the ND attitude.

Geno likes Griner. I also think that Sims is a really clutch player. Kim is a little wacky, but entertaining. She's effective, in her own way.

Can't really add anything here except to say BAYLOR coz of all the reasons that y'all listed. Just the fact that BG gets the GA seal of approval, is enough for me at this point. They've been awesome all year & deserve to win a NC. GO BEARS!

I'm going with ND. Even though I dislike the University and everything it stands for, the girls are a BE team.

Besides, I don't want anyone to have a run at UCONN's record.

However, I expect Baylor to win.

Baylor. They've been one of my favorite teams to watch this season outside of Uconn. Griner/Sims is a great duo. Hopefully they can get it done

Go Lady Bears ! I would only root for ND against Syracuse, Rutgers, or Tennessee, and I would root for Baylor against any of those.

Being that Griner has only 1 year left, you probably won't hear about Mulkey being the fastest to the succeeding win milestones.

I wouldn't even root for them against Syracuse, Rutgers or Tennessee. Sorry, just can't do it.

I gotta' go for the Big East team even though it's not who I think will win the game.
I don't understand all the hate for ND here though. Is it because they had a good year against UConn? Diggens? Novosel? Personally, I like the coach, I like the team, I like the players and I like their style of play.

You like nd. I don't. It is as simple as that, nothing to understand. I ended up hating my first boyfriend, and he has been married for 35 years. Go figure.

I have a hard time figuring how a woman could put up with any of us men for 35 years.

I'm rooting for ABND (Anybody But Notre Dame). Since that happens to be Baylor, I'll root for Baylor. I don't really mind that. As much as I don't like Britney Griner when she's our opponent, I'm gonna love her on the Olympic team.

I hope Odyssey Sims rains 3s down on their heads and outplays the Skylar Diggins by a mile, and that BG dunks left handed, right handed, and two handed.
