NCAAM Final Game

I've just about finished my research to enter the bracket contest. When's the deadline?

You've got plenty of time, don't worry.

Four corner offense.

As many of you know that I am adamantly opposed to two things in basketball: 1) the AP Arrow, and 2) the shot clock at any level of basketball (NFHS, NCAA Men's/Women's, FIBA, and NBA/WNBA).

BUT, after watching the first half of the game tonight, I truely believe that the NCAA Men's should adopt a shot clock for next year.

Really...no shot clock at any of those level? I kind of get at the high school level, but you take it away at the college or pro level, then forget keeping any fans watching on TV.

Wow...what a miserable game. Neither team should be awarded the trophy for that game. UConn was just less bad.

Did anyone see the blatant 2-hand shove foul with around 6 minutes remaining? Napier, IIRC, was going up for a loose ball (after Butler knocked away that ill-advised 35' bounce pass), Mack shoved Napier away from the ball and OOB on his back with 2-hands in his chest. You could then hear through the TV someone yelling WTF...pretty sure that would have been Napier. Shows was right there on the play and Cahill was the C-opposite. Surprising that neither got that. It was bad enough that I wouldn't have been surprised if an intentional foul had been called.

Aside from that, I thought they did a good job.

I was watching at Applebee's with no audio and on my 2nd drink but I definitely saw it. Guess there was no advantage gained.

We talked about that one in the chat room...I didn't note the time, but I'll try and get around to getting that play up.

I remember seeing it and hearing him yell "What the f*&#" as he went flying out of bounds.

Did you take a time warp back to the 50's or something?
