I am glad UConn won, but I hated the last 12 minutes of that game and playing like that could get this team bounced in the NCAAT. Look at what Seton Hall did in their game at PC where they blew them out by 24. No I am not saying I wish UConn is Seton Hall or that Seton Hall is better than UConn, that's laughable.

But Seton Hall when they built the big lead of 20 + points at PC, they never took their foot off the gas. So they never got out of rythmn from running their offense and the big thing was they [B]didn't turn the ball over (UConn had way too many).[/B] Also, they packed the D into the paint and forced PC to shoot from beyond the arc where they clearly didn't have their shooting touch, Shaheen and the players recognized this. This prevented Hopkins and others from doing their usual kamikaze drives into the paint and initiating contact and doing their flopping and flailing to get foul calls and go to the line. If UConn did this, they would have won by 20+ as well
