It’s Final Four time, a day earlier than usual. As opposed to their prior practice of having the women playing a day later than the men, the NCAA Tournament has moved the women to Friday-Sunday rather than Sunday-Tuesday.
Tonight’s games begin at 6:30pm CT at American Airlines Center in Dallas. Stanford, a 2-seed, takes on 1-seed South Carolina. It’s sort of a painfully obvious thing to say, but if anyone’s going to dethrone Connecticut, it will be the winner of this game. But it’s also true in the abstract. These may very well be the two teams in the country best suited to give the Huskies a run, but that still hasn’t worked out so well recently.
