Tell me why it's not as impressive... Wooden's streak is legendary, but it's not like the parity in men's hoops was as close as it is now during his run. And it's not like UCONN women are playing sisters of the poor every week. They've survived the tourney a few times, where they could have tripped up easily to good teams. Tennessee, Stanford and recently Baylor are all squads that match up well- yet the Huskies took care of business.

This kind of streak would be impressive if it was even a middle school squad, much less a D1 team. Not to mention the turnover UConn's had during this streak. Even if there's a huge talent gap over everyone else, sports has taught us how difficult it is to remain unbeaten for just one season.

The only way you don't think it's gangsta is if you're ignorant about women's college hoops (or just sexist).
