NCAAM Final Game

After all the great Championship games in multiple years, it is about time there was one bad one every now and then.

Probably a function of the fact that this tournament was so good for the first four rounds. Cinderellas are fun, but when you have a 3, 4, 8 and 11 seed in the final four, a clunker is probably to be expected. I thought two of the three final four games were really good. The most memorable tournaments are ones that have Cinderellas early and chalk late.

I do not think the championship had anything to do with a Cinderella making it. Butler was there last year and it was probably one of the best games in a long time and they had a chance to win without the last shot. Butler played bad that is all. And if you had all 1 and 2 seeds in the Final Four, I doubt that it would guarantee a good game either. If Kentucky played better in the semifinal, we might not have UConn as the champion.

Camron, do you work for the BCS? 😛

Butler proved it on the court. They won the darn games, until the final one. The other teams didn't. They are a deserving #2.

They proved nothing different than anyone else who lost one game in the tourney.

By your criteria, VCU should have been #3 or #4 and UNC, UF, UA and KU. The other elite 8 teams should be #5-#8, and so on. But they're not.

I had other commitments and recorded it, all the while being careful not to hear any information on the game. Then I got home, watched it, and wanted the time back afterwards. Yuck.

My other commitment was SLEEP. But I DVR'd it and got up the next morning to watch - best part was I could Fast Forward through the commercials and it really didn't take too much time out of my life. 🙄
