They beat 3 5 seeds and a 3 (which I picked to win the national title BTW) and crushed them all, I honestly think 1981 Indiana's run was easier when you consider the bracket breaks they got before Philadelphia

They almost lost this game, people forget that because of how great the talent on Vegas and how great a coach Tark was

Also they beat 4 Georgia Tech in the semis

Regardless of path that team was an absolute buzzsaw, clicking on all fronts. Nobody was going to beat them last year


I went to the final four last year and we went to the practices. I told my cousin after watching UConn practice for 10 minutes that they were head and shoulders above the other three. It was night and day, even in practice. They looked prepared.

1990 UNLV had the easiest title run statistically-

No. 16 Arkansas-Little Rock
No. 8 Ohio State
No. 12 Ball State
No. 11 Loyola Marymount
No. 3 Duke



especially if they only played 5 games

The beat #4 GT (GT was ACC tourney champs and the #( ranked overall team) in the Final Four

no team run is "easy" but some can be "easier" beating the hell out of gonzaga is by far the most impressive thing. the UCONN team was the best no doubt but i cant imagine any draw being EASIER....this doesnt mean this run was easy....just the EASIEST

1988 Kansas had an easy path to the Final Four.

Seeds beaten, in order:

#11 Xavier
#14 Murray State
#7 Vanderbilt
#4 Kansas state

But then they had to beat #2 region seed Duke and #1 region seed Oklahoma for the title. So...
