UConn's Unbeaten Run Faces a Shortlist of March Madness Threats
UConn remains undefeated through 34 games and is favored to win the national title, but experts flag a few potential threats in March Madness. The Huskies’ defense and paint protection keep them ahead, yet their willingness to concede 3-pointers can be exploited by hot outside shooting. In the Fort Worth 1 region, Vanderbilt, Texas and UCLA stand out as plausible upset candidates thanks to high-volume 3-point attack and relentless pressure, with Ohio State and Tennessee also capable of disrupting UConn's rhythm. Even if one of these teams pushes them, UConn’s scoring margin, assists and defensive metrics keep them as the team to beat.
