Despite the record, this team didn't win 111 in a row...breanna stewart and co won most of those, and these guys were largely just along for the ride. They eked out some much closer wins this year. So while it's still a huge upset in that uconn was the best team in the country, and they had the streak "history" behind it, but it's far from shocking, I think. Dissapointing, as any upset is, especially given the boneheaded plays at the end that lost it...but it takes a hell of a game from any opponent to beat uconn, and MSU brought it.
I'm pulling for them over Stanford tomorrow, though i didn't realize it's been forever since stanford won either.
Didn't South Carolina beat Stanford? It's an all SEC Final.
