Women & Men:
In two otherwise very different championship events, the 16 remaining teams can testify to the true madness of March. Sweet 16’s average seeds in both brackets are lower than their respective historical averages.
Is this going to be the new normal? Let’s consider what we’ve seen so far in both tournament areas.
At first glance the numbers appear very different in the men’s game than in the women’s tournament (below). For example, it’s a big deal that the Gonzaga men have reached Sweet 16 for the seventh time in a row. People take this before the fact and note that only Duke and North Carolina have achieved this feat in the modern tournament era.
Predictions:
2 seed Iowa’s Creighton’s surprise upset at Iowa City was one of the few shockers that even had a close game.
Lauren Jensen’s 3 with 15 seconds remaining sealed a 64-62 victory for the BlueJays. Later that day, South Dakota wired in a 14-point victory over No. 2 Baylor. Monday brought the same thing.
No. 5 Notre Dame went to Norman and beat No. 4 Oklahoma nicely. Kim Mulkey’s No. 3-seeded LSU hosted Ohio State in Baton Rouge and came out on the short end of the final score of 79–64.
