The 2025 women’s college basketball season is well underway, and there have already been some spectacular matchups.
Within the first few weeks of play, the top games did not disappoint. Junior guard Hannah Hidalgo hit the game-winner as No. 19 Notre Dame completed a marvelous comeback against freshman sensation Jazzy Davidson and No. 18 USC. The top-ranked UConn Huskies, led by forward Sarah Strong and guard Azzi Fudd, survived a furious double-digit comeback from No. 9 Michigan, led by its sophomore guard trio of Syla Swords, Olivia Olson and Mila Holloway.
If that kind of high-intensity basketball is your holiday wish, you’re in for a treat. There’s so much great basketball left before we ring in the new year, including seven top-15 matchups. Here are the biggest women’s college basketball matchups through the end of December:
