College basketball fans commended the dominant two-year run of the UConn Huskies after their second consecutive national championship.
Dan Hurley 's squad breezed through this year's tournament, disposing of opponents with ease and scarcely facing more than a hiccup en route to the program's sixth championship in the last 25 years. UConn's 14-point win over Alabama in the Final Four was the team's smallest margin of victory throughout their tournament run. They became the first team in NCAA Tournament history to win six games by 14 or more points.
That level of preeminence didn't go unnoticed by college basketball fans, many of whom didn't hesitate to rank this Huskies team among the greatest college squads of all time. Fans voiced their admiration for Hurley's program on social media after it secured its second straight national title. UConn won its first national championship in 1999. Huskies are about to win their sixth. In 25 years, they will have gotten all the way up to third all-time on the charts.This UConn squad is on its way to being in the company of some of the best teams in the history of the sport. It's not about future NBA careers or all-time individuals, it's about the way they've dominated the competition over the last two years. Not many parallels in history.
