Our Reading
The game followed a familiar script.
UConn digs themselves out of a hole, Duke’s lead evaporates, and the Huskies steal the win. Sounds like a March Madness classic.
Braylon Mullins’ prayer of a 3-pointer goes in, and UConn’s bench erupts in joy. It’s a moment we’ve seen before, but it never gets old.
This one felt recognizable early on, but UConn’s comeback was anything but predictable. They outscored Duke by 16 in the second half, and it was a stunning turnaround.
The result wasn’t surprising by the end, but the journey to get there was nothing short of incredible.
Original Observation: It’s always the 3-for-all, every March.
