UCLA is not that big, so maybe Tennessee can get a lot of paint points against them? Westbrook has a huge size advantage on Dean, maybe she can have a field day getting into the paint? Its a new season, Tennessee has talented players. I can't imagine UCLA would not prefer to play an other 11 seed because in other situations UCLA could at least out-talent or out-athlete them. |
As a Bruin fan, I confess that I'd feel a bit more comfortable if my team were facing Quinnipiac or Missouri State. The silver lining, though, is that there will be no "looking past" Tennessee. This Lady Vol team-- just by virtue of their burnt orange jerseys and their McD AA pedigrees-- will have the full attention of the UCLA roster. |
yeah. agree. My whole gripe is not that Tenn 'could' be a good team, and sometimes this year they looked great, but that they totally and absolutely did not deserve to be in the tournament based on their body of work. So UCLA gets the un-benefit of the committee's crapulous decision. I just hope UCLA doesn't get time warp and keeps playing like they did in the conference tournament. |
I think BOTH teams might fairly take criticisms for their 'body of work' thing....UCLA kinda salvaged their season at the end and TN had their flashes of brilliance here 'n there. That heightened expectation of "who will show up" makes this interesting. BOTH coaches--who've received considerable flak here as of late--have a lot to prove. Again, makes for 'Must-See' TV.
