UConn has the best chance at going back-to-back since 2007. Why is it so difficult? Why is UConn different? Billy Donovan, Jay Wright, Scott Drew and others weigh in. "You have to go back up the mountain again. And you can't go back up the same way."

Can the dominant UConn repeat? Many have tried, many have failed

The Huskies are making it look easy to win back-to-back NCAA titles, despite the pressures faced by former champions that preceded them.

Kentucky subbed in Justin Edwards at the 5:42 mark of the second half. From that point on, the Wildcats had an all-freshman lineup on the floor. They didn't make another sub the rest of the game. Over that 5:42 with five freshmen on the floor, Kentucky outscored Arkansas by 12.

No TyTy Washington, no Sahvir Wheeler -- and Kentucky goes out & drops 90 on Alabama. Erased an early 13-point deficit. Crimson Tide made 9 of its first 12 3s, made just one of their next 19 attempts. Kellan Grady was terrific, Jacob Toppin made a huge impact in his second start.
