This is going to be a great game on Monday night, but conference games are more important for USC. The Duke comparison doesn't work because the Gamecocks won at Duke (where the Blue Devils blew out Kentucky and Louisville) and UCONN played them in Hartford. With a lot of snow predicted in Connecticut on Monday night, there may not be as large a crowd at the game as under normal circumstances.

LOL
Not as many as the SEC.
How many SEC teams have made the Final Four in the last 6 years?
You may win the popularity polls but as far as winning something that you earn on the court the SEC is old news.

If there was an AAC/SEC classic, the outcome would be something like 13-1, SEC. UConn is great, everyone else is beyond pathetic.
That's irrelevant!! .... As far as South Carolina is concerned, they seem to be where uconn was back in 90's and that's building a national title contender year in and year out
Didn't Tulane beat LSU? There a few AAC teams that would give some SEC teams a game but generally you are right. But I couldn't care less about the AAC. I'm a UConn wbb fan, not an AAC fan. UConn basketball fans want nothing more than to get out.
So the fact that the conference you think is the best has had zero FF teams in the last 6 years is irrelevant to their status compared to other conferences? WOW!
And in the 90's UConn wasn't building a contender, they won a national title and made 3 FF's. How many has SC made in this decade? Bad comparison.
I honestly like the S Carolina program and I think Staley is a great coach. But let's face facts. The SEC got two 1 seeds last year based on their play in the SEC and both exited the tournament after 2 wins each. Who beat them? Two 4 seeds from the ACC. You can talk all you want about the "top to bottom" of the SEC but great conferences have teams that compete for national championships. I think both Tenn and Carolina are better teams this year and both have a shot at a FF but l want to see that happen before I consider them at the same level as teams like UConn and Notre Dame.
Texas a and m won it all within the six year span, so you are already spewing a bunch of nonsense. If your going to make a claim, at least make a halfway legitimate one.
Uconn WAS building a contender in the 90's and they won their first title in the 90's. You just made my argument for me. Thanks
As a uconn fan you should be enjoying your dominance while you can, it won't last. These things are cyclical. uconn should be ok as long as geno is coach, but when he retires all bets are off.
No I'm LADY VOL all the way. That was for the UCONN fan who is giving us a hard time. When we play South Carolina we are going to get the WIN.
For starters, I think it's at least 10. Coates, Wilson, White, Cuevas, and Roy almost certainly will play. And, I don't think it's a matter of the 10 as a whole, but rather Wilson, White, Ibiam, Coates, Welch, and Dozier rotating between the 3-5 positions. The most glaring aspect is Stokes having to play longer minutes due to our size/skill combination. I know Duke has similar size, but who is an offensive threat besides Stevens? I'm not ragging on Stokes, but in my mind the longer she plays and/or Tuck does not is a plus for us and a minus for UConn(remember Tuck replaced Stokes as a starter after the Stanford loss). Stewie also has to defend the post more often in this game, not saying she can't, but rather I haven't seen her bang in the low post much. I'm not naive, I know we'll have to make adjustments too, but if it turns into a defensive game, I like our chances.
Find me one competitive game that South Carolina has played this year where they used more than 8 players. Just one, thank you.
I have no idea what you're talking about. Seeing as how, Im the SC fan and I have watched ALL of the games. Everyone I named played against Syracuse. Take out White, replace her with Gaines, this was the Duke game. Anyway, this is Tennessee's board, and I'm not about to continue this pissing match, on here.
