Straight from the Dog
Sixteen Top 25 teams on the schedule for Sunday with four of those games have Top 25 teams playing each other. Of course No. 17 UConn is playing No. 24 North Carolina. The others??
No. 1 South Carolina takes on visiting No. 11 Utah in the early ESPN game. This could be a really good game. South Carolina has been slow out of the gate and games have been really close till the end. I don't see why this would be an exception. However, Utah has only played one ranked team and they lost to then No. 21 Baylor.
No. 2 UCLA is visiting No. 20 Florida State. This seems like a mismatch, but I really like FSU as they beat Tennessee. I'm a big Ta'Niya Latson. She graduated HS from the sister school that my granddaughters attend, American Heritage. But I believe the Bruins are just too much for the Seminoles.
No. 12 Ohio State is playing on No. 25 Penn State. The Lady Lions have only played one ranked team and only lost to No. 6 USC 71-70. But the Ohio State ball pressure will win the day for the Buckeyes.
One other interesting game is No. 18 Louisville taking on in-state rival Kentucky. Based on the results so far this season, Kentucky could get blown out. They have really struggled in most of their games. And Louisville is at home so expect a win for the Cardinals.

Plus one for every assist block point rebound and steal. I don’t add extra for offensive rebounds as it already seems to favor the bigs. Minus one for every missed shot (2, 3 or foul), turnover or foul committed.
