The Final Four lineup is identical to last season, with UConn, UCLA, Texas, and South Carolina advancing to the sport's final weekend for the second year in a row. The only difference is the matchups and location, as UConn will face South Carolina while UCLA takes on Texas in Phoenix.
Reigning champion UConn (38-0) enters as the undefeated favorite, led by All-Americans Sarah Strong and Azzi Fudd. The Huskies have won 54 straight games, including by an average of 37.8 points this season. They'll face a familiar foe in South Carolina (35-3), which has reached six straight Final Fours under coach Dawn Staley.
