UConn aims to be the first team to repeat as national champions in men's basketball since Florida in 2006-2007.

As the No. 1 overall seed, UConn has outclassed tournament rivals, boasting an average victory margin of 27.7 points.

Despite the departure of key players to the NBA, UConn has effectively rebuilt its team, maintaining a robust starting lineup.

Historically, teams like Duke (1991-1992), Cincinnati (1961-1962), San Francisco (1955-1956), Kentucky (1948-1949), and Oklahoma State (1945-1946) have achieved back-to-back NCAA championships.

UCLA holds the record for the most national championships and is the only school with multiple repeat victories.
