NCAA Tournament 2024

Middlebrooks fouled.
No call.

fuck uconn

I get it. But Hurley and their players are so likeable.

lol, ok. hurley is far from likable

but you do you

[pdub]

Ugh.
Edey a cheat code.

[pdub]

You gotta get Burns and Horne a touch on every offensive possession.

The other Wolfpack players just can’t.

I'm laughing that people probably think/know Purdue is going to win the game but these exchanged baskets right now are making people who bet the line - sweat. Myself included - but to a much lesser degree than most people who wagered on the game.

[pdub]

Bummer.
Purdue was strong defensively.

I hate the charge call in college ball. There’s no reason that was a block when other times same play is a charge.

Yeah, I um don’t like them at all.

[hoopla]

These refs seem intent on being a factor here. Shame.

Pretty good game here, looks like I’m the only one watching…

Much more exciting than the 1st game.

I love the offensive action that UConn runs.

[hoopla]

Tons of motion and great spacing. Really good stuff.

Also these refs are turrible.

Bama goes 8/11 from 3 and is still losing.

See comment above. UC shot more 3s but somehow were awarded 10 more FTs? Lot of questionable calls both ways, but 7 more freebies the difference IMo.

[KUTradition]

that little spurt may have done it

[Jayhawkerr]

Alabama can’t get any stops.

UConn is so good

[pdub]

If UConn brings their B game or better they’ll handle Purdue tomorrow.

If they bring their A game Purdue looses by 15 plus.

I don't have too much of an argument beyond that two of those seasons where they won the tournament they were absolutely not the best team in the nation. But even then, if they win tomorrow they'll still have 4 titles in the new age where they can reasonably say they were the best and won it all.

I'll throw in one other argument.
UConn has not been consistently good in those 30 years mentioned.
They've missed the NCAA tournament a good amount, accepting NIT bids.
They've also straight up missed post seasons ( not just NCAA but NIT as well ) with .500 or worse records.

To me, a greater feat ( and I know most won't agree but I relate that to not understanding the math ) is winning a top 3 conference 14 times in a row. Would I rather have six titles? Probably. The BWW Chad's absolutely would. But the greater feat is doing that consecutively.
