I didn’t have high hopes for this game, mainly for two reasons:
[LIST=1]
[*]the last two games took a lot out of the team. They had to really dig deep and gut out those wins. It’s very very hard to do that a third time. I think they were physically and emotionally exhausted, not just by the last two games but by the entire season. 
[*]SC is just better than us this year. They have great talent, a great coach, and much less disruption to their team. They were able to build and build from the start to the end of the season. UConn was constantly putting out fires from start to finish. 
[/LIST]
It’s always nice when there is a Disney ending with the hard scrabble team experiencing adversity throughout the season comes back to win it all at the end. But, life isn’t Disney.

That we made to the final game says so much about the team as a whole, from the players to the coaches to the practice players to the support staff. Everyone gave their all, and look where it got them. In my mind, they over achieved this year. And they have this experience to build on next year.
