NCAA Women's Basketball Championship Live Stream Watch Online National Title Game

The Connecticut Huskies are back in the national championship game again and their opponent is a familiar one, as the Louisville Cardinals are part of the Big East and also once played against UConn in a championship game, which the Huskies of course won.

UConn is one of the most dominant programs in college sports and team has a chance to stay undefeated in eight title games with a win on Tuesday night in New Orleans. The team won in 2009 over Louisville and also won in 2004 in New Orleans with a team led by superstar Diana Taurasi, who went on to play in the WBA and won three straight titles with the team.

Louisville has made an amazing run through the tournament by beating Tennessee and the number one ranked Baylor Bears to end Brittney Griner's career and now the team has a chance to do something very special, as the men's basketball team won the national championship on Monday night against the Michigan Wolverines. The Huskies are the only team to accomplish that feat and now Louisville has a chance to repeat it.

Breanna Stewart has been a star for the Huskies as a freshman and is one reason why the team is back in the finals and was able to take down Notre Dame in the last round after losing three times earlier in the year The Huskies didn't win either the Big East conference or the tournament this season, but they will get a Big East victory on Tuesday with a win over rival Louisville.

Stewart has scored 82 points in four games this tournament and had 29 in the game against the Irish that sent star Skylar Diggins out of college basketball with a loss. Stewart brought the Huskies back from an early and late deficit to beat the Irish and the team pulled out what ended up being an 83-65 win against their conference rivals.

The Irish had the Huskies' number for the season and dating back to last year's final four, but this time it was the Huskies who ended up on top at the end. The team is 34-4 and now will face off against one of the most surprising and excellent stories of the tournament in Louisville. Antonita Slaughter put in 18 points to help the Cardinals defeat California on Monday and the team now will face off against the Huskies.

The Cardinals weren't 29-8 and now make it an all Big East national title game and can match their male counterparts with a win. The team came back from a deficit and now faces another powerhouse in UConn. The team will not be scared of the Huskies after beating the Bears and the Volunteers and they will focus on trying to shut down Stewart.

The Cardinals making it is only the third time that the teams have had the chance to do it on both the men's and women's side, with Duke and UConn doing it in the past and the cardinals are also the lowest seed to make to the title game. The team will try to use their three point shooting prowess to win and they did a good job of keeping Cal back on fast breaks and will do the same on Tuesday.
