Especially in the 90's. As a UConn fan you just expected to play a lot of Mondays. Every year the two best teams were UConn and some other team that rotated into the second spot.

1995 i was 19 years old like all things in the prime of my life Uconn was in the middle of their rise to power and it was awesome. I miss that time in my life so much.

I was a couple of years younger but hell yeah to all of this. Mid 90s college basketball and watching UConn knocking the door down was so freaking cool.

1:03:30 - 1:03:58 is chefs kiss
(ignore what happens immediately after)

Suffocating defense down the stretch to pull away. I was only a few months old when this game was played but it was GREAT to watch now. Thanks for posting @HuskyNan !
