The Sweet 16 has begun, and the biggest question right now is how USC can survive tougher competition without star guard JuJu Watkins. The sophomore left the court after injuring her right leg against Mississippi Sate, and tests revealed an ACL tear in her right knee.

Nothing like a conference rivalry matchup to instantly turn up the heat in the Sweet 16. Duke and UNC split their two games this season, each winning at home. The Tar Heels’ victory was a low-scoring overtime affair, 53-46, as only two of the 20 total players reached double figures.

No. 2 seed UConn has advanced to the women's NCAA Tournament 's Sweet 16 where they'll face the No. 3 Oklahoma Sooners this Saturday. The game, at Spokane Arena, will be broadcast on ESPN. The Huskies are widely considered a favorite in the tournament, especially now that USC's JuJu Watkins has been sidelined with a torn ACL.
