Message: [QUOTE="Sphinx, post: 4780973, member: 4623"] From the CBS Sports website: [I]The defending national champion [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/teams/UCONN/connecticut-huskies/']UConn[/URL] Huskies dominated the 2023 NCAA Tournament with six double-digit wins in six games by an average margin of 20 points. But if their season-opener on Monday is any indication of things to come, this season's Huskies team, dare I say, may be even more unstoppable. OK, so not every game it plays this season will be against literal Lumberjacks, but No. 6 UConn nonetheless made quick and easy work of visiting [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/teams/NAU/northern-arizona-lumberjacks/']Northern Arizona[/URL], dominating the Lumberjacks 95-52 in one of the most lopsided showings of the day. The spread was between 25.5 points in favor of UConn, so winning is no surprise, but winning by 43 and outscoring them by 26 in the closing 20 minutes -- even more than the spread for the game -- is demolition reminiscent of the UConn team that routinely demoralized opponents en route to the title last season. That's enough to get you the top line in our opening day winners and losers recap of the day that was in college basketball. A tip of the cap, Huskies. We see ya.[/I] [/QUOTE]
