San Diego State vs. Connecticut Pick: Connecticut -7 | Shop for the Best Odds Below!

9:20 p.m. ET

The No. 5 seed San Diego State Aztecs take on the No. 4 seed UConn Huskies on Monday in Houston to determine the 2022-2023 national champion.

On Saturday, San Diego State continued its march to the final by knocking off Florida Atlantic 72-71 on a thrilling buzzer-beater by Lamont Butler.

The Aztecs trailed by 14 with just under 14 minutes to play but stormed back to advance to the national title game Monday night.

Senior guard Matt Bradley had struggled throughout the tournament but had his best game on the biggest stage Saturday with 21 points, including 4-8 from beyond the arc.

Forward Jaedon LeDee was the only other Aztec in double-figures, as a balanced attack added up to 72 points, which proved to be just enough to secure the win.

SDSU won the Mountain West tournament, so the Aztecs have not lost dating all the way back to February.

UConn will prove a whole new challenge.

SDSU has a top-five defense in the country but will be facing off against a UConn team that ranks No. 3 in the country on offense and has one of the best big men in college basketball in Adama Sanogo.

The junior forward is coming off a phenomenal performance on Saturday. In the Huskies’ 72-59 win over Miami, Sanogo poured in 21 points on just 11 shot attempts while pulling down eight rebounds.

Guard Jordan Hawkins dealt with food poisoning in the hours and days leading up to the game but put in a solid performance with 13 points.

UConn didn’t even shoot the ball well from deep (9-26) but held Miami to just 32 percent from the field, and out-rebounded the Hurricanes by nine.

With their run to the final, the Huskies have surged up to the top spot in KenPom’s rankings with the top 10 offensive and defensive units.

Every single UConn win in this tournament has been by double digits, with only two (Miami and St. Mary’s) coming by less than 20. Head coach Dan Hurley’s squad’s dominance has been the story of the tournament, and I see them cutting down the nets after another double-digit victory to cap it all off tonight.

It’s been a great tournament to watch so the non-gambling part of me wouldn’t mind a close game, but I don’t think we’re going to get one.

I locked in UConn -7 at -110 at Caesars.
