SEC Showdown: Texas Longhorns vs. LSU Lady Tigers

In a notable SEC women’s basketball matchup, Madison Booker and the Texas Longhorns are set to face off against Malaysia Fwali, Flase Johnson, Mkayla Williams, and the LSU Lady Tigers. The Tigers are currently struggling in the conference, with a record of 0-2. Texas stands out defensively, ranking in the top five, which might pose a challenge for LSU, especially given their tendency to turn over the ball, averaging 17 turnovers per game. The key for LSU could be to accelerate the game's pace, utilizing players like Fwali and Johnson to secure quick scores. However, if Texas manages to dictate the game's tempo, LSU's half-court difficulties could once again be exposed.

Big Ten vs. Pac-12: UCLA Bruins vs. Nebraska Cornhuskers

Another intriguing contest features the UCLA Bruins and the Nebraska Cornhuskers, with both teams currently performing well. UCLA’s Lauren Betts averages 17 points per game, making her a significant threat. On the Nebraska side, Britt Prince is contributing an impressive 19 points per game. This game presents a substantial opportunity for Nebraska to demonstrate they are among the nation's elite teams. Despite UCLA's current strength, led by players like Betts and Kiki Rice, coupled with coach Corey Close, their ultimatum will likely come in March and April, determining if they can make it to the Final Four.
