These games tonight are incredible! West Virginia and Gonzaga have nothing to be ashamed of.

It's too bad the Warriors and Mavericks picked tonight to play an NBA classic as well....not too many people were watching! Jason Richardson hit a 3 pter to win it at the buzzer after a coast to coast with a spin downcourt...after Derek Fisher thought he had tied it on a 3 pter and foul that was waved off !

Dave,

Did you just make an NBA reference on an NCAA topic? Dude, what the hell were you thinking?

Peace

Zags gave that one away.

The casino guys flat out NAILED this one.

UCLA was a two point favorite and the over/under on pts scored by Adam Morrison was 24 1/2. Those number crunchers are UNREAL!

I did not see the end of this game; I only hear a radio replay of it.

BUT!!! While I did not have a favorite in this game, the end of this game is the reason why the Alternation Possession Rule is an abomination. The game should have been restarted with a Jump Ball.

It should have been a foul on Ravio anyway. He just dove on top of the UCLA player after he lost the ball. The official probably knew that the arrow favored UCLA and just did it that way.

I've been a UCLA fan since the days of Bill Walton & Keith (Jamal) Wilkes...that said, my opinion is the dribbler from Gonzaga was fouled at halfcourt (defender reached in and hit him in the midsection) which knocked him off balance and caused separation between him and the ball. That allowed the second defender get his hand on the ball and knock it away which led to the tie up.
