UConn is in a good position to do so again this season. The Huskies are a No. 1 seed and have had little trouble moving past any team so far in March Madness en route to the Final Four. UConn has won every game by double digits, defeating Stetson, Northwestern, San Diego State and Illinois.
No. 4 seed Alabama has taken a different path. The first win wasn't close as the Crimson Tide took care of No. 13 seed Charleston, but Alabama has been in some close games since then. The Crimson Tide beat Grand Canyon, North Carolina and Clemson to advance to the Final Four. The win over the Tar Heels was an upset victory as UNC was a No. 1 seed.
Can the Crimson Tide pull off one more upset of a No. 1 seed and advance to the national championship? Or will Alabama's unexpected run come to an end in the Final Four?
Here's how to watch the game.
