64. David vs. Goliath: Can Daniel Hamilton and Co. stand up to Ben Gordon and Emeka Okafor? (2004 vs. 2016)

53m | Jun 8, 2021

In our final first round matchup of the UConn Men's Basketball's Greatest Teams Tournament Challenge, we have what looks on paper like one of the biggest mismatches of the tournament. For the 2 vs. 15 game, we have the national champion 2004 team going up against the American Athletic Conference Tournament champion 2016 team.

Is there much debate over who would win a hypothetical matchup? Probably not. But Tim Fontenault and I still took this opportunity to reminisce about how amazing the 2004 team was and how much fun the 2016 team was during what was otherwise a dark time in the program's history.
