This game is going to take a while. Still in disbelief how that night turned out. After this is over at 8, the 2011 Quarterfinal vs Pitt, then the 2011 Semi Final vs Syracuse, and finally the 2011 Big East Championship game. So If you want to get your UConn basketball fix tonight. Turn on ESPNU.

Its just crazy to look back on that 6 OT game, UConn/Syracuse, Big East Tournament, Madison Square Garden, as good as it gets for the rivalry and the Big East. If you told any UConn fan that night how in just 4 years they would be in this thing called the American Athletic Conference with SMU, Houston, and UCF among the others...crazy. Im happy we are getting things back to a more normal.

This is the first time I have watched the replay of this game. I attended the game and it is by far my favorite UConn loss. So many momentum changing moments for both sides. Happy to be going home.

A young Kemba! And wow - I forgot how regulation ended. I remember the shot being called off, but not the possession before that! We caught a bounce.

The growth in Kemba Walker from this season to the 2011 one is something. Losing the ability to put 4 guards out there with the loss of Dyson really was a bummer. He was playing at such a high level that year.

I was in China at the time and asleep due to severe jet lag as it was the first day or so I was there. I remember waking up and seeing the 6OT and the score and the 6OT again and I said to myself "wow...I can't even be mad or anything...Just amazing, 126-116:...Looked like an NBA score, lol. I was more impressed than disappointed, haha. 6 freakin' OTs. Still blows me away.

We had that game won a million times thru the first 5 OT's. I finally watched the replay for the first time the other night. Sickening.

Maybe my least favorite game of all-time.

While watching this game live you knew it was going to be an all-timer. Would have liked to have the W here.

EDIT: George Mason least favorite but this one certainly stings. However it's buoyed by the whole Tyler Olander - Boeheim stuff LOL

Good God the missed free throws. Our bigs were 50%.
