10 hottest NCAA Tournament teams entering March Madness
Iona (14-game winning streak)
Rick Pitino鈥檚 squad has become a powerhouse in the MAAC after picking up his second conference tournament victory in three seasons. The Gaels are hoping a jump from the 15th seed in 2021 to the 13th seed this season can result in the same level of March success Pitino has become accustomed to over the years. A 14-game winning streak has Iona hitting March Madness at the perfect time as they prepare for a matchup against the No. 4-seeded UConn Huskies. Behind three 15-point per game scorers and a turnover-efficient defense, the Gaels represent a team capable of pulling off an early upset.
