Having the top spot in March Madness didn't really matter to Huskies coach Geno Auriemma as he looks to lead the team to another undefeated season with the school's 13th national championship.
"We have been in that situation before, not that much different than being a No. 2 seed or a No. 1 seed somewhere else," Auriemma said. "I think it is important that we recognize that there are a lot of good teams out there and there are times I felt like we deserved a No. 1 seed based on our wins, our record, who we have beaten and it didn't pan out that way. This year it did."
The Huskies (34-0) need six more victories to complete the seventh undefeated season in school history. They are trying to become the first team to repeat as champions since the program won four in a row from 2013-16.
