UConn showed Illinois and the rest of the country just how dominant it can be in an incredible eight-minute stretch on Saturday.
The No. 1 overall seed scored 30 consecutive points from the final two minutes of the first half to the 13:16 mark of the second half in its dominating win over the Illini to advance to the Final Four. The final score ended up being 77-52, but that was trivial after Connecticut delivered a proverbial TKO to Illinois and a warning shot to the rest of college basketball before and after halftime.
