GLENDALE, Ariz. -- UConn's national title game blowout of Purdue on Monday night didn't unfold with a thunderclap run, a singular herculean effort or a defining moment.
It unfolded as a fitting tribute to the historic team that executed it -- a suffocating defense that gradually cut off the oxygen from the Boilermakers' backcourt, a balanced offense with four double-digit scorers and a defensive game plan executed with precision.
A flurry of bright lights led coach Dan Hurley and the Huskies to their shining moment, as UConn won back-to-back national championships and delivered the school's sixth title, all since 1999.
