Someone needs a hug.
Or a hobby.

More than Kansas and Duke each have in their whole history.

3 different coaches have won a title there, too, which means their success carries over even with coaching changes.
That's a big deal. |

ESPN ranked all 85 championship teams.
They had 2008 Kansas at #24. Too low in my opinion. 2024 UConn was slotted at #29.

I checked to see if my perception of their insanity was accurate... going back to their first NC (UK being slightly cheated for having won at NC the year before), they've obviously doubled up everyone in NCs.
Yet, they've missed the tournament twice as many seasons as the next team. If you say a season was fairly successful by making it out of the first weekend of the tournament, they don't do that 60% of the time... and besides Villanova, that's an extra 3+ seasons. And the Final Four is hard, right? Every other team has at least as many FF losses than NCs... well, not UConn, they're 6 for 7 winning it all once they make it that far. Every other team has a pretty normal downward slope on how difficult it is to win the tournament (besides Duke making the Sweet Sixteen) while UConn has about an equal chance of losing in the 1st weekend or winning a title... ![]() ![]()

I will take losing in the first round six times and missing the tournament if it meant a championship six times in 25 years.
