Message: [QUOTE="InKembaITrust, post: 4213152, member: 6729"] The deflation of the crowd was palpable inside the XL when we were down 4 with half a minute to go and Nova at the FT line. Fans started leaving the arena, the deafening cheers lowered to murmurs, and the BS refs started looking like they were thinking of the most effective exit strategy. The spell of luck and execution we needed at the end was UNREAL to witness. Missed 1-and-1, HUGE 3, jump ball, crazy Cole lay-in, charge taken. The fact that Villanova had a strong chance to win and spelled the crowd time and time again speaks to their maturity level and culture. It was impressive to watch and we should be seeing them again. But we deserved this win and the crowd wasn't going to let us lose, no matter how bone-headed the refs wanted to be. [/QUOTE]
