On Monday in the title game, the Huskies will face San Diego State, which became the first team to hit a buzzer-beater while trailing in a Final Four game“They’re one of the best teams in the country,” UConn coach Dan Hurley said."And I think it’s fitting that both of us kind of earned our way into this title game.”
Isaiah Wong led the ’Canes with 15 points on 4-for-10 shooting. Harassed constantly by Sanogo, 7-foot-2 Donovan Clingan and the rest of Connecticut's long-armed, rangy perimeter players, Miami, which came in with the nation's fifth-best offense, shot 25% in the first half and 33.3% for the game. “I’m a defensive guy first and foremost," Hurley said. “I just love the way we guarded them. They’re one of the best offenses in the country, and we really disrupted them.”
