We could be on the verge of history in the 2023 men’s NCAA tournament this coming Monday. Four teams remain in the hunt to be crowned a national champion, three of which have never taken home the trophy. UConn, on the flip side, has won four national championships.
No. 5 San Diego State Aztecs vs No. 9 Florida Atlantic Owls
In the early matchup on Saturday, San Diego State and Florida Atlantic will achieve school history by making it to the title game. This is FAU’s second NCAA tournament in school history, they had their first win in March Madness weeks ago when they knocked off Memphis. The Aztecs finally put the Mountain West on the board after going winless in the tournament since Nev.

No. 4 Connecticut Huskies vs No. 5 Miami Hurricanes
UConn hasn’t played in the Final Four since 2014, the last time they won a national title. Right now, nobody is as hot as the Huskies. They have won every game by double digits. In the Elite Eight, they knocked off a battle-tested Gonzaga team 82-54. Miami has had to make comebacks in the last several games, including falling behind to the Longhorns by 13 in the second half.
