What. A. Game.
What. A. Game.
I said this in the live blog but I think it bears repeating; Villanova was overlooked in the Big East. They were hardly given any attention at all. At the beginning of the year all the talk was about Georgetown, Notre Dame, Pitt, and UConn. By the end of the year, it was all about Louisville, UConn, Pitt, and Syracuse after their thrilling 6 OT win. This whole year, Villanova was an afterthought in the Big East. Well, after thought no more. And no more will they be overlooked. Many people had Pitt winning the whole tournament. But in a classic Elite 8 match on the 17th anniversary of Christian Laettner's shot, it was a team from outside Philadelphia with Verne Lundquist on the call, winning an instant classic against their in-state rivals.
What. A. Game.
And sleep sometims is overrated... ;D
ReplyDeleteIndeed. JC posted on AA though after the game. Maybe he decided to stay awake after all.
ReplyDeleteAnd as I was replaying the live blog, I just noticed that you said I was going crazy in my dorm room. That is putting it mildly, my friend. On Reynolds shot, I think I mustered up a mix of Joey Styles and a Gus Johnson "WITH THE CATCH!" type scream.
And even though it is not healthy, I can crack my voice like that.
