I was cheering for the blue team.
Living in KU country this hurts......but at least this time the good guys won over the thugs........
UCLA beat virtually the same Kansas team by 13 in last year's elite 8. That doesn't scream "UCLA's talent isn't good enough" to me. The tournament is more about luck than anything.
Without UCLA to cheer for, I'm glad to see KU as NC
great game, when Memphis was up by 8 late I thought the game was over, but like UCLA all season KU battled back and more
Nice to see the smug looks on Memphis players wither away. Both teams played a great game though. I didn't think Memphis could've been stopped considering how dominant they've played.
Timing is whats important in the tournament. UCLA wasn't hitting their stride during this tournament.
It may sound cheesy, but "Never give up until it is over," never rang more true. I would not have bet a plug nickle on Kansas' chances in the last 2-minutes. But, then again, stranger things have happened in basketball games. Still, what a way to end the college season. Now, we can rest until football in September
That's why it's called March...uh...April Madness! That was a good game to watch despite not having our boys in it.
Shades of the Bruins' comebacks! As Billy Packer said, and every ESPN analyst who had a microphone repeated regularly, it's the FT %age when the game is on the line that counts and Memphis' bad shooting from the line would and did catch up to the team. Bad coaching down the stretch by Calipari . . .
I believe one of the Memphis players referred to their free-throw shooting woes in one of the pregame clips, before the start of the Final Four (i don't remember if it was during the whole "We Are Memphis" thing or before that during the final four pregame show).
They said "we've never lost because of our free-throw shooting yet. I don't know why everyone's making a big deal about it"
Karma sucks ass.
