South Carolina vs. UConn Prediction and Pick
UConn and South Carolina are set to give us a classic. South Carolina, like Stanford, has a great inside presence. The Huskies will have to stop Aliyah Boston -- which will be challenging and repetitive.
The Huskies are led by Christyn Williams and Paige Bueckers. They are the leading scorers on the team and should put a lot of pressure on the Gamecocks' perimeter defense.
South Carolina will be fighting against history in this game. The Huskies are 11-0 in National Championship games. They've never lost in this position, while the Gamecocks lost by one point last year. On the other hand, South Carolina has won two of the last three meetings between the two teams.
If UConn is going to win this game, the Huskies are going to stop the Gamecocks on the inside and have their guards outperform UConn's.
This is going to be a back-and-forth affair, so I'll take UConn on the spread and South Carolina to win it all.
Lean: UConn +4 (-110)
