NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament 2019: Regional Quarterfinals, Day 1- Afternoon

Letting my freak Flag fly.

Ok, arguably Baylor had a better day than UConn because margin. They also had a weaker seed being #1 and all, I don’t begrudge them.

Not so many upsets, there rarely are in the Women’s Tournament during the Round of 64 since there is such a difference between the Premier Programs and everybody else. As you move forward you get more. On Day 1 you had Buffalo, Clemson, and Indiana.

That’s it.

ESPN is doing Regional Coverage which I suppose means that if you’re in a geographic area with a strong demographic for a particular team you’ll get more of that unless it’s boring.

In other words the same as they always do.
