Who cares about polls like this. UConn buried a Shaq-led LSU team in the tournament in 1991. That's the one that really counted.

Good for Omar. Always seemed like a good kid. He had to watch the magical run in 2014 from the bench, but that was a better seat than I had. :) I'm very glad he got this game as a senior.

Good for Rodney! Hoping it's the first of many, but even if it's the only one he ever scores, no one can ever take it away from him.

Hell of a win. Lots of heart and toughness, especially after falling behind by five.

I was at Gampel in 2004 for the most dominating stretch I witnessed. Against Oklahoma, which came in 10-0 and ranked No. 6, the Huskies went on a 29-5 run to turn a 7-5 deficit into a 34-12 lead. It was amazing basketball, and the place was going nuts. (I looked up the details to make sure the...

It sounds like your father was a wonderful man. I'm so sorry for your loss, Kate.

Live to see another day. Let's keep it going, guys.

Not every season has to end with a national championship, or even a tournament bid. Really enjoying the heart this team has shown of late.

This is why we keep watching during a rough season. Great win, and great effort by the guys.

Phil knows a thing or two about winning championships. :) Good for him!

So, don't throw deep in Syracuse territory, but throw into double coverage deep in your own territory? Good game plan.

You're lucky to be alive. You're even luckier to be alive

I was at the Garden for the Big East tournament in 1992. I walked right by Trump and Marla. I had thought she looked good in pictures, but she was drop-dead gorgeous in person.

Hey, when you're busy creating trophies for "rivalries" that don't exist, you don't have a chance to learn clock management.

You don't even have to run fades. Roll Shirrefs out. If there's an opening, he runs it in. If there's a receiver, open he passes. If neither, he throws it out of the end zone and you have another play.

Amen. I'm happy for all of them, but especially Omar. He might not be a great player, but he's a great Husky.

Tate didn't dribble. But that doesn't change the larger point that Mick should stop whining. If his team tries even a little to contest the inbounds pass, Cinci wins.

Nope. Tate was 1. Ray was 2.0 Taliek's was 4.0 Kemba's was 5.0 Jalen's is 6.0. You forgot the true 3.0

Yes. Awful job. When he started to say "no" it led to that strange "nyitt!"

The "special" quote on Ricky Moore, but there's a better quote that Howie didn't mention. I heard this from a friend who graduated UConn in 1990 (three years after me). My friend was sitting near the UConn bench, and Dan Cyrulik, who Howie was VERY hot for on the recruiting trail, was having a...

So sorry for your loss. Glad your mom got to see so many championships in her life.

Not necessarily. I went to the Temple game last week with my nephew and brother. My brother, who's 60, has Parkinson's disease, and his medication works well some days, OK on others and not at all on others. On days when it doesn't work well, last last week, he can still walk short distances...

I hold no grudge, thanks to his three-point try that barely grazed the front iron in the waning seconds of the 2004 semifinal.

I also never remember that UConn team portrayed as thugs.

The 1999 final against Duke will always be my favorite game ever, but to show where everything started, I'll mention a game I've mentioned here before. My senior year, 1986-87, was Jim Calhoun's first. Cliff Robinson and Phil Gamble were lost to academics at the start of the second semester...

Maybe he'll wear it anyway, in honor of Boo Willingham.

Great for Scott and Southern. I always wished that when Burrell was gone from the NBA, rather than playing in the CBA, D-League and the Far East, that he had tried to get back into baseball. There is no way a hitter could get back into the game at 30 after being out for a decade, but as a...

Baseball and soccer both have passionate fans, and passionate haters. I've never understood people who hate on a sport because it's not their thing. I love baseball. It's my favorite sport. The UConn men are my second-favorite team, behind the Red Sox. Even when the Sox aren't in it, I love the...

1. Duke 1990 and it absolutely, positively isn't even remotely close. 2. Florida 1994 3. Mississippi State 1996 4. Texas 2003 5. Maryland 2002

He and Drew Barrymore must of had a falling out, because she hasn't been on for years. Regis has to make an appearance.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It sounds like your dad had an amazing life, and he'll always be with you.

And if he watched the 2010-2011 season, he knows he can be Napier, never started but usually in at crunch time.

This is surprising and disappointing, but he'll always be a champion. Thanks for everything, Terrence! Knock 'em dead at your next school.
