ESPN lists Rutgers Women's Basketball as a “ team that can wreck your bracket.”

Team that could ruin your bracket: Rutgers. The No. 6 seed didn't look like itself, especially defensively, in a 73-62 Big Ten quarterfinal loss to Iowa. But the Scarlet Knights won nine games in a row before that. If Rutgers recaptures that mojo, it could be dangerous.

Diamond Johnson listed as one of five players to watch in the Mercado Region

Diamond Johnson, Rutgers: The freshman guard is second on the team in scoring (17.9 PPG) to senior Arella Guirantes (20.8 PPG) and leads the Scarlet Knights in 3-pointers (49) while shooting 45 percent from long range.

Which teams advance? NC State, Texas A&M, Indiana and Rutgers are my picks to reach the Sweet 16. NC State advances to the Final Four. -- Voepel
 
If the defense is locked in, both Arella and Diamond are "on," and we get one other player to have a big game, RU is very dangerous.

Hopefully the entire team is putting up a lot of shots and preparing to come out
on fire! That is the key. Mael, Tekia, Zippy, and Liz especially must be "on" to open up driving lanes for Arella and Diamond.
