Shocking Upset or Reigning Champion? Dark Horses Emerge in 2025 Women’s NCAA March Madness Predictions

Now, I am not saying to just pick chalk for the women’s tournament. That is not fun, but also the probability that all 1-8 seeds win in the first round of this tournament is 0.0002%, per TRACR.

Pick some upsets, just not that many.

11 Murray State over 6 Iowa: The team that has lost in the last two championship games losing in the first round? All things considered, the Hawkeyes had an impressive season after losing the game’s greatest player. Bringing in transfer Lucy Olsen from Villanova has helped gain back some of that scoring, and they have key wins over Iowa State, USC and Michigan State. This has more to do with Murray State’s dynamic offense.
