Winners and Losers of the 2024 Men's Final Four | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors

Not since 2006 and 2007 Florida has a program won back-to-back national titles, but UConn may snap the drought.

Last season, the Huskies put together a dominant run as a highly respected No. 4 seed. They landed the overall No. 1 seed in 2024 and have backed up their billing all tourney. The 14-point win over Alabama is UConn's smallest margin of victory in the Big Dance.

This time, though, a greater challenge looms in the championship.

Fifth-seeded San Diego State was a fun story in 2023, but the Aztecs were a surprising runner-up. Purdue, conversely, entered the campaign as a top contender, waltzed to a Big Ten crown and landed a No. 1 seed.
