Predictions:
No. 2 seed UConn. There’s a reason the Huskies were ranked No. 2 in the country at the beginning of the season, and we have started to be reminded of why now that they’re finally healthy. UConn is both deep and balanced offensively, plays suffocating defense and has been battle-tested.
Yes, they struggled at times when they were short-handed, but they also were within reach of beating No. 1 seed Louisville without Azzi Fudd and point guards Paige Bueckers and Nika Mühl. And the team has improved so much from the beginning of the season that its three-point fourth-quarter against South Carolina in November seems like it happened a lifetime ago.
With six of their nine rotation players having competed in the national semifinal last year, the Huskies’ newfound experience and maturity could push them over the edge for UConn to advance to its 14th consecutive Final Four.
