Will Sage Astor-Women's March Madness Elite Eight schedule, TV, predictions and more for Monday's games

Angel Reese and the defending national champions in LSU. The all-time Division I scoring leader in Caitlin Clark and Iowa. Southern California and JuJu Watkins, the probable freshman of the year. And Paige Bueckers and the juggernaut that is UConn.

The Iowa vs. LSU rematch of last season's championship game will eat most of the space around the women's NCAA Tournament on Monday. But the Trojans and Huskies feature an intriguing matchup that pits Watkins against the 2021 player of the year.
