The UConn Huskies started the 2024 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament hot out of the gate.

The Huskies made quick work of the No. 16-seeded Stetson Hatters and made it look easy against No. 8 Northwestern in the round of 32. The Huskies will now have a national championship rematch against No. 5 San Diego State in the Sweet 16.

The Huskies have a plus-56 point differential through the two games. Needless to say, the Huskies have looked good as they have pursued back-to-back titles and Fox Sports broadcaster Tim Brando agreed.

"I’m not sure. I don’t think so," Brando said to OutKick’s Dan Dakich on "Don’t @ Me" when asked whether anyone could hang with the Huskies. "They were an automatic pick for me. It’s very, very rare that I’ll say I’d take a team over the field. But toward the end of the year, like the last two to three weeks, I saw them a lot."

Brando recalled UConn’s matchups against Marquette during the regular season. UConn took advantage of the Golden Eagles’ foul trouble and won by 28 points back on Feb. 17 and then held on against them two more times, including in the Big East Championship.
