Picking the NCAA women's bracket: UConn beats Texas for another national championship

UConn is favored to win with a perfect 34-0 record and a 50-game winning streak, beating Texas in the projected Final Four matchup, AP said.

  • This year, UConn beat Texas to claim the national title, with the NCAA women's tournament Final Four featuring UConn, UCLA, Texas and South Carolina.
  • UConn Huskies entered the tournament 34-0 with a 50-game winning streak, and Sarah Strong has gone 70-3 in her games with the team this year.
  • Emerging from the Fort Worth 1 regional bracket, UConn advanced to the championship game after beating Vanderbilt, while Texas progressed through its bracket, including a win over UCLA, to reach the final.
  • Most bracket players picked Connecticut to win, so choosing Texas, UCLA or South Carolina offers a strategic differentiation, as advised for this year’s pool.
  • Seed statistics across past tournaments show top-seed dominance as 32 champions came from No. 1 seeds in 43 previous NCAA women's tournaments, while teams with 10 or more losses won only three times this year.
