Wow, what a game!

It's pretty amazing that UConn has went from a top 10 team early in the season to a meddling 9-9 Big East team and now is in the Final Four after this roller coaster of a season.

Yeah I have no shot at winning the OS group but my work pool and one I'm in on another website I can win if things playout correctly for me. Need UNC and KU to win tomorrow then need KU to beat UConn in the title game, any other scenario I can't win so pulling for the bracket at this point since theres some cash to be had.

Lamb is going to be a stud for UConn. Dude has incredible length and made some great plays.

If only I would of put Butler in the FF like I had the first 2 hours after the brackets were released as a gut feeling before taking Pittsburgh over them.

So proud. After that run they made in the BET, this was already a successful season. We could have lost in the 2nd round, and this would have been my 3rd or 4th favorite uconn season ever. Now final four.

Last summer, we came off a very disappointing nit season, had the NCAA violations, and had what was considered an underwhelming recruiting class. Making the tourney would have been considered a success this year. Now, final four, legit chance to win it all.

What does that mean? Donovan is one of the best coaches in the country, period.

Donovan never met a shot he didn't like when he played. Period.

Re: The Official 2011 "Running Commentary of Every Single Tourney Game" Thread

What to take away from today is

1. Butler is back in the final four and remains the king of Indiana college basketball

2. UConn and Kemba saved the Big East conference from what seemed like embarassment. 11 bids with no Final Fours would've had Barkley more smug than he normally is

What I want tomorrow

1. For "Brad Stevens of 2011" to win and setup the youngest matchup of Final Four coaches ever. If any one of those 2 win a title where they are. Why bother going to another college coaching job.

2. For John Calipari to have a Final Four to his name without the threat of it being vacated

Roger...I thought you were referring to his coaching style. No doubt Billy was a gunner in his day.

I didn't like the play call at the end of regulation or the play call when we were down 72-71 in OT with 14 seconds left. That said, this was Billy D's best coaching job. To see this bunch in November if you told me they'd be a shot away from the FF I would have laughed at you. Huge improvements and it was a fun season to watch. They will be solid next year with some good recruits coming in and Patric Young continuing to develop.
