Boooooooooo.

Nice game by Wagner and second half effort by Michigan. They deserved the win.

It would have been weird to see a team in the NC that lost to the same team we did, when we gauged it as the low point of our season. And Milwaukee had ULC down by 20 in the first half.

that both coach interview was awkward

Crazy to think that both Loyola and Michigan are 25 foot buzzer beaters away from not even making it out of the first weekend.
Sometimes, it's better to be lucky than good in March. (preferably both)

There can be a fine line between a quick exit and a deep run (or in cases of both teams this year, several fine lines).

NC State's miracle run to a title in '83 included two 1-point wins and two 2-point wins.

5-seed Florida was a buzzer-beater from being one-and-out in 2000, then went to Final Four.

UCONN won their first round game in OT the year they beat the Niang-less Cyclones to win the title.

BBall gods if you could have Villanova do to KU what they did a few years back to OU at the Final Four that would be AWESOME!

Good example.

Another was 1995, Tyus Edney buzzer-beater vs. Missouri, UCLA went on to win title.

I'm sure we could find quite a few others.

whar Kansas?

[CTTB78]

C'mon Nova- keep blowing them out.
I'd like to see a 25 point beatdown but KU will probably settle in and make it a game.

 

[CycloneErik]

Nice start. Now make it hurt.

 

[GTO]

whar Kansas?

Villanova hit them coming off the bus.

 

[CTTB78]

It's hard to hit threes in a dome.

 

[Cy$]

I accept Villanova as the new Big 12 overlord.

 

[arobb]

Feels like I'm watching the Globetrotters. Kansas is getting completely owned. Lol

 

[IcSyU]

This is Hoiball on steroids with a good defense on top of it. Holy ****.

 

[cygrads]

KU going to get to double figures this half!?

 

[CTTB78]

KU not used to those charge calls going aginst them. Glad Hollywood and crew was told to go home after his early round blounder.

kansas woke up a little
