Is there even the slightest hope that Arizona can defeat UConn?  It is hard for me to imagine a scenario where that happens, other than UConn getting a covid test that knocks out some players, or McDonald having the best game of her life and scoring 50.  In addition to McDonald scoring 50 points, she could foul a bunch of them out or just plain wear them out by having them chase her which would be possible if there was no shot clock.

UConn only used 6 players against Baylor. The three perimeter players went 40 minutes each, while three bigs split the remaining minutes equally. So wearing them out is conceivable, at least.

If we meet UConn in the final, it'll be interesting to see if we can make our depth tell.
