Conference tournaments reshaped the NCAA Women’s Tournament picture.
On this episode of The Women’s Hoops Show, Jordan Robinson and Autumn Johnson take you behind the scenes of covering conference tournaments before diving into the Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament, where UCLA delivered one of the most dominant championship performances in conference history, defeating Iowa 96–45 and strengthening its case for the overall No. 1 seed in the 2026 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament (March Madness).
The hosts also break down the biggest conference tournament upsets, bubble teams fighting for NCAA Tournament bids, and the major storylines shaping the 2026 women’s March Madness bracket.
Then, the conversation shifts to the pros as the WNBA’s March 10 CBA deadline arrives with no agreement yet between the league and players. What are the key issues holding up negotiations? Jordan and Autumn explain the latest on WNBA revenue sharing, salary cap increases, and what could happen if talks continue closer to the start of the 2026 WNBA season.
