After 66 NCAA Tournament games stretched over the last three weeks, the college basketball season will have one final game to decide a champion. No. 1 overall seed and reigning national champion UConn will face No. 1 seed Purdue on Monday in Glendale, Arizona, for the national title at Sate Farm Stadium.
Purdue is seeking its first national championship in program history. UConn is looking to become the first team to win back-to-back championships in men's basketball since Florida did it in 2006 and 2007. The Huskies could tie North Carolina for the third-most championships all-time behind UCLA and Kentucky with a win.
The Boilermakers defeated NC State 63-50 in the first national semifinal on Saturday to advance to their first championship game since 1969. The Huskies returned to the title game with an 86-72 win.
This will mark the 10th national championship matchup between No. 1 seeds for the title. The last matchup came in 2021 when Baylor defeated No. 1 overall seed Gonzaga to secure its first championship in program history.
