Seems the rest before OT really helped. That was all Borg needed.

Boo just plain sucks.

Jk. But I am glad he gets another game to show his best side.

Congratulations Cats. This was a tough win. Lots of adjustments. Lots of hurdles. Some big shots.

Wow I thought my bracket was busted when they went ahead after the flagrant. I thought for sure we were cooked.

Keep it going against UCONN! Go Cats!

I'd just like to point out that those closing free throws by Boo in overtime were his first free throws of the game.
Which makes the missed TAKE foul on Boo even more egregious. Jeezus my blind and deaf grandmother could have called that one.

Great game by the Cats, a real team effort!
Go Cats!

My San Diego State Aztecs are leading at the half against UAB. Ledee is on fire. If you’ve not seen him play before check out the 2nd half.
Go Aztecs!

Well, if you're going to get hot shooting, OT is the best time.

You see bad officiating in sports and just hope the bad calls will even out, but they surely didn't today. NU got mugged, but lived to tell about it.

CCC was right - this NU team is plenty tough.

How we gonna beat UCONN???

Didn't doubt it for a second!! Wait, what happened??
I'm in the same boat. Had really terrible luck with my internet cutting out due to neighborhood electrical work right after Brooks brushed Vlad's head and it looked like things were looking even more bleak for Northwestern. I manage to finally get the game on my phone just as Langborg drains the 3 to make it 70. Well, you're welcome everyone.

My internet cut off when Ivan Drago had a FT up by 2. Came back with us leading by 6 in OT.

As a conference the Mountain West is choking more than Purdue against a double digit seed. Even BYU, former MW, is gone.

Big East not looking too good in postseason play.

Villanova loses to VCU at home in NIT as 9 point favorite - VCU clearly better than Nova.

St. Joe's takes Seton Hall to OT on their floor. Seton favored by 9.

Marquette down 7 at half to Western Kentucky.

Creighton did manage to beat Akron by double digits, but UConn may not be "all that."
