What Is the Average Score of the Women's College Basketball National Championship Game?

With fewer major upsets in the Women's College Basketball Tournament compared to the men's version, bracket pools are much more likely to come down to predicting the final score of the championship game.
We don't even know which two teams will play for the championship in Phoenix on April 5. How on earth can we accurately predict a final score?
With the use of a little historical data, we can make our best educated guess on which teams will reach the final game and what range a typical score would fall into.
Average Score of the Women's College Basketball National Championship Game
The women's game is quite top-heavy, with over 75% of the champions being tournament 1 seeds. This year, the 1 seeds are UConn, UCLA, Texas, and South Carolina. Combined, these four teams have just seven losses on the season.
As expected, each of these four powerhouses ranks highly in offensive efficiency, defensive efficiency, and rebounding. This is a repeat of what we see in most of the women's college tournaments. This is a game dominated by juggernauts and dynasties.
This is a good thing for those of us paying attention when we fill out our championship game score tiebreaker, because it means the total of this game is more easily predicted by history than on the men's side.
Below is a table of the scores from the women's college basketball championship game in each of the past 10 seasons:
Overall, an average final score of 74.4 to 61.9 gives an average total of 136.3 points in the women's college basketball championship game.
This total isn't far off from what we've seen recently in the men's college basketball championship game, but the margin of victory is much more lopsided.
