Each of the games with the largest margins of victory in women's ������Ƶ tournament history came in first round games, where lopsided matchups are notorious for large point differentials. Of the matchup listed, only two of the losing teams scored over 40 points (Hampton with 45 and Saint Francis with 52); all but two of the winning teams scored over 100 points in their victories (Duke-96, Tennessee-99)

UConn accounts for five of the top-10 blowouts of all time, while Tennessee is the only other program with multiple listings in the top 10 at two. Interestingly, the Huskies are the only program listed to have won a national title after their huge first-round wins, being crowned champs in 2000 and 2013.
