Saturday saw the two top teams in the country, UConn and South Carolina, beat their opponents. The Huskies had a tougher go of things, beating No. 4 seed UCLA, 86-71, while the Gamecocks led by head coach Dawn Staley trounced Quinnipiac, 100-58. Carolina’s starters didn’t even play the final six minutes.
The story this year is whether or not anyone is capable of dethroning Geno Auriemma’s UConn club. The Huskies are sitting on a 110-game winning streak currently, and their next foe, No. 10 Oregon, would require a Herculean effort to pull off a win. It’s not very likely.
