WBB: General All-NCAA Thread - Not Team Cyclones Stuff

Might be a #16 Kansas State vs #5 Iowa rematch. If both win their first two in the same Gulf Coast thingie they would meet in the champ game. KSU has a tougher path, will likely play the Lexi #18 North Carolina team.

Same stupid FloHoops TV or I'd check out the KSU game vs two ranked teams. Good test to see how good KSU is. KSU is one of the tough opponents we are scheduled to play twice.

Pac 12 has 3 of top 4 and 5 of the top 10. Just like football in wbb the conference is going out as we currently know it as brutally good.
 
Does it spell trouble with Freese? IIRC her program had mass transfer last season or two ago?

Not just that, lost two seniors that were 1st round WNBA draft choices from last years starting five. They were still picked as 4th in the Big Ten but are obviously struggling early. I liked watching their high scoring style but don't mind seeing some other teams in the Big Ten get their time in the limelight. It wasn't as bad as Baylor winning the Big 12 every year but was in the same category.

Edit: ESPN has her 2024 class at #15 but that's 5th in the expanded Big 10 for 2024. ESPN has them at #11 for their 2023 class.

UNI played in Vegas also and lost to Syracuse and Vandy by similar margins. Probably on par with ISU this year
 
When is last time non conference opp faced each other twice? Probably only way it has is because of ncaa tournament matchup, but this is twice during non conf part of the schedule and only weeks apart.

Does happen especially in some of these holiday n/c thingies. Will be tough playing three games in three days, sort like conference tournaments, but Iowa had much easier games. KSU starters have way more minutes the last couple of days.

Iowa's path to KSU's in this tourney has been ridiculous. Iowa is going to clean their clock due to payback and team being much better rested.
