Kim Mulkey's Take: Controlling Ta'Niya Latson

"[Florida State gets] the ball to Latson and then you converge on her, and then she throws it to somebody else and makes them look great.

"They are balanced. You know, they have four kids that score in double figures. They score in the 80s. You'd think the three ball is what makes them go, and they do score about eight a game.

"But it's their dribble penetration that creates a lot of things. They are so long. They are athletic. They are a handful, and if you think about their schedule, they beat Notre Dame on the road. Stanford, I think beat them but they beat Georgia Tech on the road.

"They beat three ranked teams in the ACC on the road. So that tells you that they are very confident and very talented."
