Was it luck in 1987 when we got to play Providence instead of Georgetown?

We were lucky in 1996 when
We played Drexel instead of Memphis
Georgia instead of Purdue
Mississippi St instead of Cinci (or UConn)

Were were lucky in 2003 when Bogans hurt his ankle and Marquette smoked Kentucky, or when we got to play Auburn instead of Wake Forest (to say nothing of Albany)?

Why were we unlucky to play Michigan instead of Kansas?  Was it luck that we got Cal instead of UNLV?  Was it good luck that we played a team in the Sweet 16 that year completely unprepared for our zone?    Was it bad luck that we played Marquette in the next game because they beat us earlier in the year or was it good luck because we beat them?

Was it good luck that we got to play MTSU instead of MSU or Gonzaga instead of Utah in 2016?

The 2014 UConn team played the 2,3, and 4 seeds in their region and then the top team in the whole bracket.

Im just so sick of parsing “luck.”  They have five titles and we don’t.
