What a boring championship. I was really rooting for Butler, but UCONN played fairly consistently through out all of tournament time. Good for them- good for anyone as long it isn't Duke! I did feel sorry for both teams though. The commentators couldnt get over How horrible each team was playing/shooting. Give them a break! They were all probably about to wet their under armor.

This is the first march madness that I'll actually remember seeing UK play in the final four. Til next year, GO CATS!

They haven't made a final four since 1999. And I agree, final game was boring because it was defensive focused. Butler only made one or two shots in the paint. You can't win a final without a presence in the paint.

My best friend is a Kentucky fan. We had a really hard time this season trying to figure out whether to root for them or not seeing as we fucking hate Calipari. But they're already being predicted to be top 5 next year.

What did Michigan St. start at this year? #2? Not less than #4 for sure.

I never thought this would be the team to make it to the final four. Everyone was banking on last year's freshman, but I think these guys were more willing to learn as a team and play for each other and not just themselves.


Any team like that deserves a little support. I know a lot of UK fans despise any team that isn't KY, but I appreciate the game and the mental and physical toughness that it takes to be successful in the national tournament. Even if I hate the coach, I gotta admire the players.
