There were a few upsets and several blowouts across the first two rounds of the NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament as March Madness continues its roll into the Sweet 16.
No. 1 overall seed South Carolina Gamecocks have been responsible for two of the aforementioned blowouts in the tournament so far. They take on the No. 4 Indiana Hoosiers in the Sweet 16 on Friday.
The undefeated Gamecocks took down No.16 Presbyterian in the first round with a 91-39 beatdown and didn't let up in the second round against No. 8 North Carolina. South Carolina won that one handily, 88-41.
Indiana has had a couple of strong showings of their own, defeating No. 13 Fairfield, 89-56, in the first round and taking out No. 5 Oklahoma in a 75-68 win where the Hoosiers pulled away late.

Evan Gerike writes, "South Carolina should be able to provide several answers to Holmes in the post and the Gamecocks can match the Hoosiers' shooting ability. Thanks to more rest afforded by a deeper bench and an extra day off between games, the Gamecocks are in good position to move to the Elite Eight."
