The UConn women lose in OT

The UConn women lose to Notre Dame in OT

They came into the game 36-0.

All four #1 seeds made it into the Final Four. The championship game will pit Notre Dame (34-3) against Mississippi State (37-1). Louisville was the other team in the Final Four and they finished 36-3, with two of their losses coming against UConn and Mississippi State.

All three of the Notre Dame losses this year came against other teams in the Final Four, so those four teams between them lost only two games all year except when playing each other! (Mississippi State lost a shocker to South Carolina, and Louisville lost a squeaker to Florida State.)

At any rate ...

Notre Dame played UConn and Louisville during the regular season, but they did not play Mississippi State, so the championship game provides a good narrative, even without mighty UConn.
