The UConn basketball team suffered a 77-75 loss to Florida in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, and after the hard-fought loss, head coach Dan Hurley opened up on the emotions he felt after the bid for a three-peat fell short.
“Yeah, I mean they showed their quality,” Dan Hurley said on CBS. “I mean I thought we played with tremendous honor. I thought we played with the heart of a championship program that’s gone back-to-back, and for a team to end what we really wanted to do, they were gonna have to put us down. And obviously a worthy opponent like that, there’s honor in the way we went out.”

UConn basketball was in control for much of the second half, but ultimately came up short in the end. It was a great effort, given that UConn was a No. 8 seed coming into the matchup and Florida is viewed as one of the favorites to win the national championship.
