This is almost as bad as watching a women’s game.
Hot take: UConn’s dominance has been bad for college basketball. Almost all their title games are a borefest and there isn’t anything interesting about the same teams winning all the time.

At least when it was LeBron vs the Warriors the finals were mostly entertaining.

These venues make for dog **** basketball games. Effing hate it will likely never see a championship game played in an actual arena made for basketball.

Its actually NBA playoff basketball

Maybe in the 80s and 90s haha. You don't see anyhting like THIS in the NBA. In one possession I think like 7 players were on the grou d at different times.

Also, whatever happened to this cylinder rule that burned Kentucky several times for being inside the offensive players "cylinder"? These uconn players are inside Michigan's shorts.

Michigan’s switching d has been impressive. They clearly have worked on communication.

Definitely. They have had to keep swinging the ball around the perimeter to get a clean look all night. We're talking options 5 and 6. Great scouting.

Absolutely infuriating that this uconn team has 6 fouls in this half.. and yet Kentucky seemingly had 50% of its basketball games in the double bonus. College basketball is the one sport where it can be entirely different "games" based on the conference and school.

If Kentucky played like Uconn did, we'd foul out like 6 players a game.

We dodged Billy D to UNC and Uconn winning a title, that's a National title for May in his 2nd year. Textbook Home run hire

Pope needs to get Kentucky 🏀 back on top, Can he do it in his 3rd year? Stay tuned.

This has been the least interested I have been in a final 4 ever I didn't even watch the first 33 mins of this game.
