Is women's college basketball the sport most prone to total blowouts like this? And I'm not just talking about UConn. It seems to have the least amount of parity of any sport I can think of.

Blowouts, yeah, but not to the magnitude. And in this particular game, in the NCAAT, a 1 seed did get upset by a 16 seed.

Meh. There is parity in Women's BBall. Its the parity by default where maybe 2/3 teams are good and everyone else is dogshit, so of course a 16 can beat a 1. The "2"s can barely compete as it is.

That Stanford team was dealing with so many injuries

Yeah a 16 beat a 1 in WBB tourney but it was a weird scenario. Imagine if a men's 1 seed had to deal with injuries to their main players. They would probably still win, but we saw what happened with Syracuse a few years ago when they lost Fab Melo and should have lost to UNC Asheville.
