So many missed shots that look awkward. The SEC rightly moved the tournament from the Superdome and Georgia Dome to an arena rotation and then permanently in Nashville.

the NCAA will never do it, but I’d love to see these two teams playing without that handicap.

UCONN has really uglied up this game. Dan Hurley is the best coach in the country. They may lose by 10-12 but they have played the game at their pace.

They have. But Michigan also just mauls people. They had two hands on the ball handler multiple trips. They have shoved someone down on rebounds a lot. Totally missed the foul on the play they reviewed.

I went to the Final Four in the Superdome when UNC beat Michigan (Fab 5) probably 1992. The views were horrible. I primarily watched the game on the jumbotron.

I was at that Final Four, too! My roommate's dad owned a CBS affiliate station, so our seats were pretty good, but the court was still kinda far away.

At brunch on Saturday at that Final Four, i watched a CBS exec fire Mike Francesca over the phone. It was awesome.

But, until the NCAA can figure out how to squeeze 60,000 people into a basketball venue, the game will remain in giant domed stadiums.

My god….my interest level has hit an all time low. I didn’t realize the NC game was last night. I haven’t been into bb for awhile but I would at least check a score on the game. Oh well….im getting closer to taking a dirt nap anyway. 😐

Damn!
...so is that a 1976 graduation date and not a 1976 birth date?

Either way- that was a surprising way to accept that you havent been into college basketball and missed the National Championship game.

You and me both. I actually watched American Idol with the Mrs last night and I even paid attention part of the time.

Outside of a few teams here and there, college hoops has been pretty hard to watch for a while now. The NBA is light years ahead from a watchability standpoint.

I knew the game was on and still didn't watch. So much easier (if you are interested enough) to just go watch the highlights on YouTube today. I recommend it for football games too, our game highlights are posted overnight on YouTube usually by ESPN and last only about 20 minutes, much easier to watch the highlights instead of Shapen getting sacked repeatedly or DL getting pushed around
