No. 2 Usc, No. 4 Ucla Ready To Square Off In Round 3 With Another Big Ten Championship On The Line
UCLA center Lauren Betts and her teammates used a five-day break to dissect their flaws, make a few fixes and recommit themselves to beating No. 2 Southern California - if they earned that chance at the Big Ten Tournament.
Now it's all set.
The league's top two regular-season teams and Los Angeles rivals will meet in yet another winner-takes-all contest Sunday in what could be one of the top women's basketball games of the season.
"A lot has to be different," Betts said when asked about the title game following Saturday's 75-46 rout of No. 13 Ohio State. "Obviously, we felt really badly about how we played them the last time and how we showed up and we don't ever want to feel like that again."
Round 3 of this matchup certainly has a familiar plot and some storybook twists.
