You have to to give them credit for winning there titles but their final opponents outside of 1999 have been pretty poor.

1999 Duke- probably the best team not to win the NC so UConn should get big props for this win.

2004 Georgia Tech 3 seed. Not really a great team their bracket blew up and they beat a 4 seed in the Elite 8 and 2 seed in the Final Four. I am fairly confident  UConn was worthy though they were the best team most of the regular season and they cameback against Duke in the Final Four and earned this title.

2011- Horseshoe title. They beat 2 seed San Diego State, 5 seed Arizona, 4 seed Kentucky, 8 seed Butler. This team benefited from the brackets blowing up and riding a hot Walker. Butler's offense in the NC was a disgrace to CBB.

2014- They were underseeded. Beat Villanova/Iowa State/Michigan State/Florida to earn it. 8 seed Kentucky in the final was missing Willy Cauley-Stein but UConn beat the #1 overall seed and beat good teams.

They just have gotten breaks and taken advantage. This year we are riding our break of Michigan State losing and now need to win 2 more games.
