is this game making anyone else sad that it's literally the last time either will be playing an epic battle in the garden in march? as for the big east choking in the tourny that's silly there are 68 teams or whatever and only 1 that wins. should we say that all the other conferences choked too because they didn't win the title?

Come on, eastcoasters! 9 out of the 11 didn't make it to the sweet 16 last year, when the whole season leading up the that we got to hear how the Big East was the strongest conference.

Exactly, come on. Once you get to the tourney it's all about match ups. Who thought VCU was going to shoot the lights out to get the the Final 4. I'm sure they beat a team from another conf besides The Big East.

Way to piss the game away USF, pathetic. Was really hoping for a USF/ CIN final to piss ESPN off.

No clue where else to put this but a pretty cool read on Geno Auriemma.

Great guy. I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with him for a few minutes when I was up at UConn for a summer program in high school, back in the summer of 2007. He was in Gampel watching the men's team practice, doing a 3 on 3, and I said to myself, "This may be the only chance I have of meeting and talking to him." So I did. Pretty cool moment for me.

Screw Notre Dame. Time to change the name of the conference.

Calhoun retirement is imminent.

What a coward. Way to not face the punishment for penalties he had a part in.
