A Woman's Take on the Womens' Road

Tennessee- 10.9 seconds to go in he 2nd half. Pat Summit screams over to her team like Sensei said to Johnny of the Cobra Kai's in his final match against Daniel in The Karate Kid: "Hey! This 'aint over. Finish it. Finish it!" Yikes! And I think we all remember the look on Johnny's face when he said that to him. How can anyone play under that much pressure? So of course they have absolutely no star players so this is another one that goes to the coaching. Pat Summit is the winning-est basketball coach in history (men and women) with 882 wins. 882. 882. I mean who wins 882 games? I'll tell you who. Pat Summit, that's who. They'll crush Michigan State but unfortunately they'll lose to LSU.

Baylor- Who?

Michigan State- Yet another average team with yet another above average coach. Coach McCallie came 5 years ago. 1st year: Division Semifinals. 2nd Year: WNIT Semi-finals. 3rd Year: 1st round NCAA Tourney 4th Year: 2nd round NCAA Tourney 5th Year: NCAA Final Four. Now granted she won't get further than that this year, but that's quite a track record. It definitely guarantee's her some better recruits next year.

LSU- They have something no other team has going into the Final Four: Star Power. Seimone Augustus leads the way milking 20ppg and completely embarrassing anyone who guards her. She's going to show up every night. She'll be tournament MVP and they'll take the trophy back to Louisiana.
