Wow, very big game.

Seems to me UConn might have some trouble in the Big Dance.

I am going to say, if UNC wins against Duke tomorrow, this is the top 5:

1)UNC
2)Pitt
3)Memphis
4)UConn
5)Louisville

IMO, btw.

Can't say I watch any sports other than the last round of the PGA tour, some olympics, and final world cup games...

UConn really got hurt this year by losing Jerome Dyson to a torn miniscus. He was their leading scorer, best on-ball defender and an outside shooting threat. Without him they really run into match up problems now.

That game was crazy today, I don't think I have seen that many out-of-bounds saves all end up in the hands of one team. Every time someone dove out of bounds to save a ball from either Pitt or UConn and whipped it back in it landed straight in a Pitt player's hands. It was unreal.

I think Pitt is definitely a final 4 team, UConn was a lock for the final four before the injury but now in a bad matchup I could see them losing in the 16 or 8 against a physical team with a good point guard.

The crazy thing is Pitt and UConn could play again before the tournament even starts, in the Big East tournament. Both of them getting to the BE final is hardly a given considering the depth of that conference though.
