62: Argue against 2009? I tried, it didn't go well. (2009 vs. 2003)

51m | May 25, 2021

Throughout the UConn Men's Basketball's Greatest Teams Tournament Challenge, Tim and I have made it our responsibility to pick a team in each matchup and make our best case for why they would win a hypothetical game. Even in the lopsided matchups like 1999 vs. 2021 we've given it our best shot and made some honest to god points for why the underdog could possibly steal the game.

But this time, I drew the short stick and had to argue against 2009, and like every team the Huskies faced that year, 2009 broke me.

In probably the most hilariously lopsided discussion we'll have in this entire tournament, Tim and I discussed the 2009 and 2003 teams, what kind of seasons they had and I flailed wildly trying to come up with a coherent case against one of UConn's true powerhouses. Will there be a stunning 14 over a 3-seed upset? I'm not counting on it, but crazier things have happened.
