The South Carolina Gamecocks (35-3) will face the Connecticut Huskies (38-0) in the NCAA Women’s Final Four Friday night at the Mortgage Matchup Center in Phoenix, AZ. Tipoff for this rematch of last year’s final is scheduled for 7 p.m. EST, with coverage provided by ESPN.
If South Carolina is going to record what would be an epic upset, well, it’s going to be a tall order. There isn’t much the Huskies aren’t good, no—the best at (their good at everything). They lead the country in adjusted defensive efficiency, points allowed per game, steals, field-goal percentage, assists per game, field-goal percentage defense, and assist-to-turnover ratio. About the only thing they do not excel at is free throws (No. 309 in free throws made/game). They are strong on both ends of the court, have multiple shooters, and a deep roster. It’s as complete a team as you are ever going to find.
As for the Gamecocks, while they may not be the best in the country at a lot of things like UConn, they are among the best in several categories: third in scoring (87.1 ppg), seventh in blocks/game (5.9), fourth in three-point percentage (37.7%), and seventh in rebounds/game (42.47). So, they may not be as great as UConn is in several categories, but they are still great.

Our Connecticut Huskies vs South Carolina Gamecocks Prediction
The easy out here would be just to say UConn is going to continue its dominant march back to the Final. But are they? Offensively, they did not look great against Notre Dame; the defense certainly did, but the offense did not. Should the UConn offense have a similar “slump” and South Carolina can catch fire from three-point range (which they are excellent at defending), the Gamecocks might have a chance. Maybe.
