May I humbly suggest another reason (besides lineups and offensive woes), why this team, so loaded with talent, has not played to their potential?  Our championship team was HUNGRY and this team (for reasons I don't know why), is NOT.

I do agree with this sentiment. Heck, in the UCLA postgame; Haley  quoted along the lines of ''we just didn't match their energy in the second half.''
If you can't muster the energy in March to play all out a win or go home game; winning is not gonna happen. We've lacked energy in the game's we've lost this year. 
I also think the Hulls, Anna Wilson, Kianna, played so hungry every game that some of that is contagious and made up for players that were less inclined. 

Many on the roster are National Champions forever so maybe there isn't anything to prove hence the less hungry team. But, for many winning at the top is so satisfying, that you want to get back there and do it again and also know how much hard work goes into getting there in the first place.

We probably need a psychiatrist / psycholgoist to get in the minds of college kids.  I don't think any of us can truly understand what's going through their minds sometimes. Being a student athlete is hard.
