Im going with UNC all night here. Just tooooo much talent for Nova and these guys are coached by one of the greatest coaches in college basketball. What's everyone's thoughts on the Nova vs UNC game tonight (Now)?

Oh maybe UNC has a coulle Centers they can share with us lol?

 

[newAD]

If they keep hitting 3s they will be tough to beat. I'm rooting for Nova.

I win a pie if nova wins... I'd rather you get money than I get a crappy pie. I'll root for UNC for you!

Hold up, what kind of pie?

Pie of my choice but I've been told by past winners it doesn't matter... They're all crappy.

What? Turn in your man's sports card.

Even if the pie is crappy?

 

[c2o]

I have no problem with playing for pie.

 

[c2o]

I used to think cake was better than pie, but I was wrong.

 

[newAD]

Now that's a BOOM!

That was an incredible game. It almost made up for the lackluster tournament up until now.

Has a national championship ever come down to a buzzer beater before? I can't remember one.

 

[schuele]

Not a huge fan of either team, but that was a fantastic game. Congrats to Villanova - a very deserving champion.

For sure. it was cool that UNC came back to tie it near the end with that three. Then the time expiring dagger by Nova. Lot of experts on this board swore that Nova had no chance against the superior talent of the Tarheels.

 

[rrthusker]

Best title game I have ever seen. It had a little of everything.

 

[newAD]

Everyone will remember that shot, but Arcidiacono set him up beautifully.

Good point. Way too many guys want to be the hero in that situation, and end up taking a terrible shot.

Can't think of one. This is as close as I can come up with off the top of my head:

 

[mothmonsterman]

Keith Smart against Syracuse in 87?

 

[tone1017]

Wonderfully designed play to get arcidiacono to clear out the defenders. What a game

 

[timnsun]

Wasn't NC State over Houston a last second shot? Not exactly a buzzer beater as the shot was short but the NC Stae player under he basket was there to put it in...

This.

Great game and great win by Nova.

Forgot about that one:

You're right. Can't believe I forgot about that one. Epic moment too with Jim Valvano running around the court looking for someone to hug.
