The UConn Huskies have a chance to make a bold statement on national television tonight against No. 1 overall seed Kansas.
There are a lot of reasons UConn can't win tonight.
Kansas has won 15 straight heading into this game. The Jayhawks have absolutely wrecked the competition in the Big 12, sweeping Oklahoma (No. 7 KenPom) and Texas Tech (No. 52) while winning home games against West Virginia (No. 10) and Iowa State (No. 18) in a regular season series split.
They beat both Kansas State (No. 52) and Baylor (No. 28) three times and grabbed a second win over WVU in the conference tournament championship game.
