And then there were two. The 2024 men's NCAA Tournament is down to just two programs from the original field of 68 teams. Seventeen days after the madness began, the Purdue Boilermakers and the Connecticut Huskies will decide who takes home the national championship.

Purdue pulled away in the second half to earn a 63-50 win over NC State and end the Cinderella story of the tournament. UConn took the upper hand late to win 86-72 over Alabama and make their second consecutive national championship game.

One game remains in the 2023-24 men's college basketball season Monday night in Glendale, Arizona. Will it be Purdue's first national title? Or will UConn become the first program in 17 years to repeat as NCAA champions?

Historic finish: Connecticut pulls away from Alabama in Final Four to move one win from repeat title
