I really didn’t want this to be as close as it’s going to be. Not the way Villanova shoots FTs.

Nova winning 2 more games to win a title now determines whether UConn can recruit & develop the guards/wing players needed for it's own success. This board is comedy.

If conference doesn't matter then why didn't UConn stay in the AAC? This must by why all those NEC teams have made Final Fours.

I wonder if they will call a foul on Kansas at some point or Kansas can just bludgeon Villanova players with impunity for the rest of the game.
This has been - so far- the best officiated game Ive seen this year
Nova is doing a lot of reaching in and slapping that is going uncalled

Kansas was a mortal lock to win this game before the opening tip.

When you can find where I said "conference doesn't matter" in my post we can continue the conversation, until then...

And Samuel's gets to lower his shoulder twice and the they call a touch foul against Kansas.

It's so obvious when the Nova ayers lower their shoulder and push off in the post, yet they get away with it.

Yeah the idea that the refs are stealing this from Villanova is straight up lunacy.

It's all about keeping Nova & Kansas away from title # 4 for me. So UNC over Kansas is best case scenario at this point with Nova done.

Really Nelson? People are hoping that certain teams and coaches don't catch up with UConn and JC
Has nothing to do with anti NBE
Anyone but Duke number 1
Don't want Jay and Nova to tie JC and UConn number 2
Kansas can win but there is a chance that it will be vacated - have to hope
UNC - cheater cheater but Davis is one of the good guys

Never said that.

What I said is Noba does this all the time and gets away with it every game.

I applaud them for doing it. Make the refs make the call.

Wright only playing 7 tonight, doesn't bode well for his confidence in his other players. Sheesh.

The idea that you would say a poster said something they didn't say as part of a cheap shot was a 100% certainty.

Nova winning or not winning a National Championship will not have a 0.00000000000000000000000000001% impact Jim Calhoun's legacy.

About the only thing you can say is that by letting them play, Villanova’s usual advantage in FTs isn’t as significant. But I think it’s been pretty even.

I was responding to the poster earlier who blamed the friendly whistle Kansas was getting. Samuels posts up with his off arm clearing out the defender and never gets called for it.

Either conference mates being successful is good for UConn, and any team for that matter, or it isn't. I am not going to hire an interpreter to figure out what you are saying.

Daniels was down there stiff arming guys when going to the hoop and there was no call. Looked like a RB. They are letting them play.
