Basically, teams were defending UConn by sagging off of (dorking) Andre Jackson who is not a great shooter. UConn's offense stalled, Jackson was taking too many long shots, and we were losing. I think McDermott & Creighton tried it first, Miller and Xavier used it as well as others (like Pitino in the 1st round).

This is how Iowa beat SCar last night, they sagged the paint and forced SCar's perimeter players to beat em'. If you don't have at least 2 sharpshooters on your roster then you're dead in the tourney.

Ok, so continuing the conversation from earlier in the week, you can get into the building for just $40+fees on Stubhub right now.

You can get a lower level ticket for $108+fees.

You can get a ticket in the back of one of the eight sections that are court side, behind the benches and across from the benches for $458 +fees right now.

I expect even better opportunities as the day goes on, and if you are there in person, you can probably get in for almost nothing when it tips.

Live look at sad houston and Texas fans not even only crying about their teams losing so they can’t watch them play but then the second wave of not even getting your money back on the tickets your overconfidence made you buy

I can’t even begin to fathom what playing on this team must feel like to these guys.

It’s like this team showed up to the NCAA tournament and called downs and they’re going to hold the court until someone beats them. They have owned this **** and it doesn’t look like they’re going to give up the court until they hold up that trophy and cut down them nets!!

These cats are playing like they know they’re the best team on the floor and they’re leaving it all on the court as they should!

What an incredible feeling that must be and I couldn’t be happier for Coach L and this group of guys.

Bring on anyone! I’m rolling with Coach L and this team all the way. It’s ride or die time and we ain’t dying!!

Let’s Go Canes!!

UConn got Timme in foul trouble early against Gonzaga. If we can keep Norchad out of foul trouble the game will be much easier for us.

We don't run our offense through Norchad but he's the bulk of our inside presence.

Also Gonzaga was bad all tournament from 3pt range and were hideous against UConn. I think their starting guards went like 1-10.

UConn hasn't played a 40 minute game all tournament. They haven't even really trailed. We shoot average today and UConn will sweat for the first time.

This is a take I have not heard from any UM fan yet. While most of you believe you can win (and I would agree that you can win), I would say you will need, the the very least, an above average shooting % to stay with UCONN

So you're saying we have to shoot the ball well to win a national semi-final game against a good team?

Earth-shattering analysis, friend! :)
