Oh, look what we have here.

A TIE game. Fun

 

[Robertelamin]

Another dumb 3 pointer at the end

 

[Blue Huskie]

Bill Murray celebrates!

Epic choke by Arizona.

Xavier proved me wrong and then some. Jeez, never saw this coming, and that was with Sumner.

[Jaker]

Mack totally outcoached Miller in this game.

 

[ivrytontusker]

Conference of Chumpians. UCLA will have to carry them now, Oregon ain't beating KU.

 

[WrenchFan69]

Everyone loves that hero ball. Jesus. Cheers to Chris Mack for calling perfection with the two for one there.

 

[Walker11]

Happy X won. Enjoy Mack while you can. Trier is a bad man. I don't like the idea of granting FT's for loose ball fouls - really hurt UA at the end.

 

[noeynox]

Miller always a bridesmaid it seems.

 

[superjohn]

Xavier is so freaking tough, to withstand a run like that on the road and fight right back to take the game over down the stretch is amazing. Bernard and Blueitt were outstanding. Glad Nelson went to bed.

 

[ASweet3781]

Wow,

Either Gonzaga or Xavier are FINALLY going to the Final 4.

It makes me sick the talent Arizona gets considering their coach can't even get them to the Final 4.

 

[superjohn]

Happy for Tyrique Jones, Hartford.

 

[Jaker]

Miller is squandering some serious talent

Absolutely loaded every year.

20 missed threes, but Zona kept jacking them up.

20 missed threes, but Zona kept jacking them up.

And Zona had a clear cut advantage in the paint, yet they jacked 3's

Just looked at Sean Miller's wikipedia:

2009–10 Arizona 16–15 10–8 4th
2010–11 Arizona 30–8 14–4 1st NCAA Elite Eight
2011–12 Arizona 23–12 12–6 4th NIT First Round
2012–13 Arizona 27–8 12–6 T–2nd NCAA Sweet Sixteen
2013–14 Arizona 33–5 15–3 1st NCAA Elite Eight
2014–15 Arizona 34–4 16–2 1st NCAA Elite Eight
2015–16 Arizona 25–9 12–6 T–3rd NCAA First Round
2016–17 Arizona 32–4 16–2 T–1st you guessed it, not the final 4

CHRIS MACK IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN MICK CRONIN THAT IT ISNT EVEN FAIR ANYMORE.

 

[Jaker]

Macura is a tough SOB

 

[metsfan2323]

Miller is a great coach, he'll win one eventually. People used to knock Calhoun too until 99. Jay Wright got the monkey off his back last year.

Xavier is legit. Very much like 2014 UCONN,

He's pretty much better or as good as anyone.

Many of the posters here would trade UConn's decade for that, for some reason.

Jay Wright must hate it that only like two people in the world remember the '09 final four.

There are only 2 Pitt fans in the world? Well actually, that's kinda believable.

I'm talking about winning it all. You are right, nobody remembers final four losers.

Calhoun had five elite 8's before reaching his first Final 4 at age 57.

I mainly just posted it because some troll wrote "you guessed it, not the final 4". Now its gone.

Exactly.
