A year removed from her final college game, the best player in Maryland women's basketball history [Alyssa Thomas] is a hard act to follow.
So, too, is Niveen Rasheed, still perhaps the best player in Princeton history two years after she last played college ball.
Yet here we are, waiting for Monday evening (ESPN2/WatchESPN, 6:30 p.m. ET) and a game between top-seeded Maryland and unbeaten No. 8 seed Princeton that is one of the most anticipated second-round games in recent NCAA tournament memory.
How do you replace the irreplaceable?
In each case Monday, the answer was already there, if not yet obvious, before the question needed to be asked. |

No poll?
It's pretty clear who has the best offense, best defense, best athletes and best coaching. |

| Yeah, there better be a good reason why Stanford's game can't be at 6 or 7pm PT.

Lexie Brown: 2-6 shooting and 1 turnover. 0 assists. Pass the ball. Mincy is a better creator it looks like at least right now, 2 assists already and 0 turnovers.
Princeton will need to use substitutions judiciously and make sure Wheatley stays fresh.

Maryland can transition all night long, and Princeton already look like deers in headlights on defense.
12-8 MAR with 14:31 left in half

Terps aren't the smartest team around.
They've given up 2 points by not getting their toes behind the arc.

I have MD-Princeton on my TV, Oklahoma-Stanford and UNC-Ohio State on my browsers. Will flip to chekc out FSU-Gulf if close. Throwing Tennessee overboard.
This is NOT how the tournament was meant to be watched!

| Howard for Maryland is working so hard for post position but Brown hasn't passed her the ball once. Brown gets a lot of attention but to me she is the worst of Maryland's "Big 4". Mincy, Jones, and Walker Kimbrough all seem better to me.

Compare 8 seeded Princeton to 3 seeded Oregon State and 5 seeded Mississippi State! Much better team.
Committee got it wrong!

| Tarakchian for Princeton forces too many tough shots. Its ok to pass it back out when you have good teammates.

| Mincy is playing great, could she be a WNBA player? She has injury issues but man she looks healthy now.
