May I respectfully disagree? Kansas would win most, but I'd say more like 7 out of 10. Having watched both teams play multiple times this year, the disparity was not as great as most believed.

Current personal issues aside, the worst TV does at this is Tiger.
This drives me crazy. I was a golf fan before Tiger. I used to enjoy watching golf on TV because I got to see so many shots by different styles of players. Now...I get to see Tiger get out of his rental car. I get to watch Tiger put on his golf shoes as the announcer is saying "look how effectively Tiger makes the bunny ears, pulls through and completes the tie of his right shoe. The man can certainly tie shoes." And then we watch him warming up on the putting green, then the driving range, then the putting green. By this time I am usually yelling at the TV, begging to watch some actual competitive golf shots.

Can Stanford win? Of course...

WILL Stanford win? I have no idea. I don't think so, but stranger things have happened. Anyone else remember the 1985 Men's Championship game? No one gave Villanova much of a chance against Georgetown and their star-studded line-up. Took pretty much a perfect game to beat them, but it happened.

Stanford will need some things to go their way...but it could happen.

The problem right now is that there are only a handful of schools out there that the true "stars" of girl's HS ball want to play for. If you are really good, you go to UConn, Tenn., Stanford, or maybe one or two other schools. When there are more "stars" coming out of HS, there will begin to be more parity.

Wink

The early line is UConn by 8. Tim Donaghy called me this morning to see if I wanted to put a dime down on the Huskies.
