Top-ranked UConn (3-0) returns to the court Sunday at noon, hosting an unbeaten Ohio State squad (2-0) at PeoplesBank Arena in what should be one of the early headliners of the women’s college basketball season.
The Huskies are coming off a dominant 85–31 rout of Loyola Chicago on Wednesday at Gampel Pavilion, while the Buckeyes rolled past Bellarmine 90–33 on Thursday night, keeping their perfect start intact.
Historically, UConn has owned this matchup, leading the all-time series 6–1. But the most recent chapter went Ohio State’s way, an unforgettable 73–61 win in the 2023 Sweet 16 that snapped UConn’s remarkable run of 16 straight Elite Eights and 13 consecutive Final Fours.
