Connecticut advanced to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA men's basketball tournament for the first time since 2014 with a 70-55 win over No. 5 Saint Mary's on Sunday in Albany, New York.
The fourth-seeded Huskies pulled away after leading by just one point, 31-30, at halftime. They caught fire in the second half and turned the game into a rout.
As a team, UConn shot 54 percent from the field and went 10-of-22 from beyond the arc. Many on Twitter thought Dan Hurley's squad has the makeup of a national champion.
