The 68-team field has been cut to 32 in the 2022 women's NCAA tournament. Each of the No. 1 seeds had an easy ride into the second round. The top four seeds in each region are still alive, but for teams such as the No. 3 seed LSU Tigers and the fourth-seeded Arizona Wildcats and Oklahoma Sooners, it wasn't by much. That doesn't mean everything is going by form. Six double-digit seeds have moved onto the second round. That's as many as the last two NCAA tournaments combined.
This has been a resurgent year for the Big 12 and the league's 6-0 record over the first two days has confirmed it.
