UCONN vs NOTRE DAME | STANFORD vs TEXAS A&M
Okay, let’s not discuss that I scored an astounding 1 out of 4 in my picks. That goes without saying that this year’s Elite Eight has nothing been short of entertaining and surprising, even if it lacks that quintessential Cinderella story.
So Vandersloot and the Zags fell to Stanford, right? And that Skylar Diggins and the Fighting Irish upset the Tennessee Lady Vols yesterday. This morning, Maya Moore scored her 3000th point in a 35-point rout of the Duke Blue Devils, and Texas A&M’s Sydney Carter pushed her team over Brittney Griner’s 1st-seeded Baylor Bears and that’s with Danielle Adams struggling.
Texas A&M Aggies : 1st Final Four in school history
Stanford Cardinal : 4th straight Final Four
Notre Dame Fighting Irish : 1st time since 2001
Connecticut Huskies : 12th Final Four

With that said, I’m pulling for a UCONN – STANFORD final.
