Game 2 will be fun for me. I truly don’t care who wins. You pumped, nervous, drunj S&L?

Sucked to watch Loyola met down at the end, which is exactly what they hadn’t done all season. They were good enough to win tonight, but Michigan really stepped it up the final 10 minutes.

Saw a tweet..Michigan hasn’t played a team seeded higher than 6 to get to the championship game. Kansas or nova will have beat three teams seeded 5 or higher

Their survival against Houston and run to the Finals reminds me of Florida many years back....that Florida team lost so hopefully it keeps reminding me. Florida team was led by big white star also (can’t remember his name)

Edit: Mike Miller

Carolina, Xavier, and the entire South Region definitely made things easier on them.

Michigan if they hit can play with either team,  it I expect Nova or Kansas to handle them pretty easily in the final.

Azu lucky not to pick up a foul going for 2 diff off boards.

Heard Trey Wingo cite metrics that said a pass into a defended post player results in .78 points per shot, while a 3 point shot results in 1.23 pts per attempt

Nova wasn't making threes last weekend against Texas Tech.  They're making them today.  If that continues, gonna be a real tough night for Kansas.

The Tech game was weird. This is how they have played every other tourny game.

Apparently Nova fell in love with the three a little too much.  Not really moving the ball much these last few possessions.  Still in control, though, despite giving up a 7-0 run.

Good adjustment to zone and picking up the pace. Refs doing a good job of letting this game play and swallowing whistle on those could be tic tack fouls

Lol.  Never mind.  I'm done talking now.

Lol....what was it like 40-12?

This isn’t that and Kansas still in striking distance....they just need Nova to not make 60% of their 3’s
