I tend to think of the final four teams as 3 primarily defense oriented teams (SC, Louisville, Stanford) and one offense oriented team (UConn).   It will be an interesting contrast of styles but my money is on a defensive team winning.  I think that is where the game is evolving to, namely defense and rebounding wins championships (Stanford ‘21, Baylor ‘19, South Carolina ‘17).  I think some of the UConn dominating runs had both the best offense and defense.  A possible exception to this could have been Oregon in ‘20 if there had been a championship.
