The Hurricanes are the scariest team in the East headed into the playoffs. Not just because of the trade deadline, but because they've stayed true to their identity until the right move worked

UConn is about to win its 5th national title since the last time a Big Ten team won a national title.

The Huskies are a modern day Indiana.

Hoosiers 5-1 in title game.
Huskies about to be 6-0 in title game.
