Match-ups matter and USC's team is a BAD match-up for Stanford.

Arizona played USC twice in the past two weeks - a 95-93 double overtime loss in the last weekend of the regular season and a 65-62 Pac-12 tournament loss.  In other words two VERY close games. Is UofA a better women's basketball team than Stanford? No, but for whaterver reason they matched up better with USC than we did yesterday afternoon.

Stanford's 2024 team is vulnerable to elite teams with athletic guards that can both drive and shoot mid-range jumpers.  Of course, there's a lot of teams like that in the last rounds of the NCAA tournament.  

Let's enjoy the ride and this group of players for however long it lasts while hoping we get a little match-up luck during this NCAA journey.
