Brittany Griner has a deeper voice than half the men in this country.
I kept hoping a Stanford player would do a nut-check on "her".

since they expanded the field. It has happened 12 times overall.
From an article I found ...
Compiling the list is fairly easy, thanks to Page 19 of the Final Four record book, which lists all the consensus All-Americans to play in the event.
Here’s a chronological litany of the 11 previous matchups, including some stats:
* 1939: Ohio State’s Jimmy Hull outscores Oregon’s Slim Wintermute 12-4, but the Ducks win the inaugural NCAA tournament final, 46-33.
* 1955: Bill Russell leads San Francisco to the first of its two consecutive titles with 23 points as the Dons defeat Tom Gola (16 points) and LaSalle 77-63.
* 1957: Kansas’ Wilt Chamberlain has game-highs of 23 points and 14 rebounds, but Lennie Rosenbluth’s 20 points carry North Carolina to a 54-53, triple-overtime victory.
* 1963: Loyola of Chicago’s Jerry Harkness outscores Cincinnati’s Tom Thacker 14-13 to lead his team to a 60-58 overtime upset of the two-time defending champions.
* 1965: Arguably the greatest show staged by two All-Americans in the final. Gail Goodrich scores a then-championship-game record 42 points to lead UCLA over Cazzie Russell (28 points) and Michigan, 91-80. Goodrich and Russell combine to shoot 22-of-38 from the floor, 26-for-29 from the foul line.
* 1968: North Carolina and Larry Miller (14 points) are no match for UCLA and Lew Alcindor, whose 34 points and 16 rebounds key the Bruins’ 78-55 rout.
* 1969: Purdue and sharpshooter Rick Mount (28 points) suffer the same fate, falling to Alcindor (37 points, 20 boards) and UCLA, 92-72.
* 1979: Magic (24 points, seven rebounds) wins the first of many duels with Bird (19 and 13) as Michigan State bests Indiana State 75-64.
* 1982: Worthy’s 28 points on 13-of-17 shooting give Dean Smith his first national championship as North Carolina edges Floyd (18 points) and Georgetown 63-62 on a late, left-wing jumper by some kid named Jordan.
* 1984: Ewing has modest numbers (10 points, nine rebounds), but the Hoyas defeat Olajuwon (15 and nine) and Houston, 84-75.
* 1999: Hamilton’s 27 points carry UConn to its first championship as the Huskies best Brand (15 points, 13 rebounds) and Duke, 77-74.

Nope. Multiple last names means I dislike him. I hope he shoots 1-12 the rest of the way.
