The NCAA did two top 16 reveals earlier this year to predict who it believed would be the one-seeds in the tournament and host the first and second rounds.

The only undefeated team left in women's college basketball is the South Carolina Gamecocks, who should be a shoo-in as a one-seed and the No. 1 overall seed. 

The Indiana Hoosiers are also looking at that one-seed as they've only lost three games this season and won their first Big Ten regular season title since 1983.

The NCAA named Stanford as another guess for a potential candidate. Since the prediction, the Cardinal now has five season losses and fell out of the Pac-12 Tournament early but still should be a sound team with a shot at the national crown.

Finally, the Utah Utes could be a potential one-seed as they boast one of the best overall records of 25-4 in the whole Associated Press Top 25 Poll for a No. 8 ranking.

Nothing is certain just yet as the Selection Sunday broadcast will have the final word. The madness starts now!
