GLENDALE, Ariz. — The final game of the 2024 NCAA Tournament is scheduled for Monday night at 9:20 ET here inside State Farm Stadium.It's a great one — UConn vs. Purdue.It's a matchup between the two teams that have combined to be ranked No. 1 in 12 of the 20 Associated Press Top 25 polls this season. It'll feature two-time CBS Sports National Player of the Year Zach Edey matched up against UConn's Donovan Clingan, a fellow center who is in contention to be the first big selected in the 2024
NBA Draft. When it's over, we'll either have a back-to-back national champion in UConn or one of the greatest redemption stories in sports history with Purdue winning a national title one year after becoming just the second No. 1 seed ever to lose to a No. 16 seed in NCAA Tournament. What more could we ask for? UConn is listed as a 6.5-point favorite, which is notably higher than how most computers are projecting this game to go. That's interesting but also understandable given that the Huskies have now won 11 straight games in the NCAA Tournament by at least 13 points. So Purdue clearly has a tough test on tap in trying to become the first team to beat the Huskies this season without the benefit of a home-court advantage.
