Still, had a great time, was center court 25 rows up across from the benches, and while it was sad to see us lose, we did get to the Final Four in a year when we weren't supposed to, and did so in awesome fashion exacting revenge on numerous opponents along the way.
Go cats go!

kkaabboomm said:I'm 99.999% confident this banner will stick. Sandy Bell (UK Compliance) has been up Cal+crews ass since he got here, crossing every T and dotting every I. I didn't pre-buy championship tickets, I had a line on section 124 (125 was behind UK bench, 124 was 1 section closer to the band) row 7, right on the aisle next to 125, so baseline, were UK to have made it that far. but we didnt. reliant is going to be no where NEAR as packed.
example: this is the UCONN student section, for the national championship game, tonight:

I'd say Bill Laimbeer was the first big flopper.chuckddd said:Forgive me if you've read this rant before, but...
Flopping in basketball came into vogue when Euros started sullying up the sport. I'm looking at you, Vlade Divac! Apparently, in Europe, basketball is played a little too much like soccer. MAN UP! Team USA should have a slogan of "we don't dive". That would work for futbowl, or whatever it is, too.

Your team is gonna be beastly scary next season depending on who actually declares for the draft this year.

I was just thinking the same thing. Too much court noise.suaveric said:Does the game audio sound weird to anyone else? Commercials sound ok.

Ya, more or less. I suppose I cant complain because the game is tied. Would be worse if this was a blowout. At least the potential for an exciting ending is still in high.jjasper said:Pretty representative of the quality of play this year.
ItWasMeantToBe19 said:Not really, but there was almost no talent in college basketball this season and that made it a little hard to watch like the Ammo-Reddick-Tyrus-George Mason year. It's nice that next year's recruiting class is really good though, should improve the overall level of play.
jjasper said:At this point college basketball's quality is almost entirely determined by the freshman class.
