but feel compelled to register my agreement with this. That anticipation, excitement and tension before kickoff, or at crucial moments in the game, is a beautiful thing that shouldn't have to compete with, and definitely doesn't need to be "augmented" by, some idiot at the controls of a big-ass PA system. The grandiosity of the event, captured so effectively by Keith Jackson, is cheapened by all that gimmicky crap. But, the main thing to be taken from that video is just how great it was to have Keith Jackson in the booth, and how much he is missed on fall Saturdays. |

that's how an emmy-winning veteran news anchor does it. |

Back in the day, I'd watch any game being called by Summerall/Madden. These days, I hardly watch any NFL games at all. I've missed that pair (and Keith Jackson on Saturdays) for years. RIP, Pat. |
| 5 weeks 2 days ago | happy for Trey |
and thrilled that the BBall program is relevant and drawing top talent, but find myself rather uncomfortable with that characterization. |
| 6 weeks 6 hours ago | what hurts is |
two of trey's fouls were total phantom calls. that very much affected his play at the end of the game (not to mention his absence for most of the first half). |
| 6 weeks 6 hours ago | i dunno |
1989 glen rice, loy vaught, terry mills, rumeal robinson, sean higgins.... 1992... you know who 2012/13...again, you know who. there will be others to come. |

an all-time great basketball play goes in the books as a foul. shame. |

that trey block was an all-time great play. shame that it went down called as a foul. weird how more fouls were called on louisville (justifiably), but the ones called on M affected the game. oh well. cant take anything away from what this team accomplished. |

While it may be a stretch to call Webber a victim, he was far from being the main actor. It was, after all, the Ed Martin scandal. Also, this isn't about celebrating him -- it's about celebrating this year's team. People comparing this to Tressel's triumphal return at the horseshoe last fall (as someone did the other day) are way off base. He won't be getting carried off the court on anybody's shoulders, but it would be cool if he was there cheering when Trey Burke is. |
| 6 weeks 1 day ago | so glad |
coming back for his sophomore year worked out so well for him. Should be a good example to other potential one-and-done players of the kind of development that can happen with another year in Beilein's program. |

| 6 weeks 2 days ago | what i'm drinking tonight? |
the sweet nectar of VICTORY!!! |
| 6 weeks 2 days ago | that's what i was thinking. |
the close game for the night is out of the way, and i'm sick of hearing about this 2-3 zone. time to kill it! |
| 6 weeks 2 days ago | haha |
did greg gumbel just call them the wichita state "stalkers"? i like it... and they're making louisville nervous. |
| 7 weeks 1 day ago | not really a valid comparison |
florida was incidental to the victory today. it was about getting to the final 4 after a too long absence, and we would have probably beaten anybody today. beating florida in the bowl game was gratifying because it was florida (tebow, urban, etc), and carr got a nice send-off with a good victory (against the sec) after an otherwise disappointing season. |

Mitch McGary and Blake Griffin (2009) are the only players in the last 15 seasons with consecutive games of 21+ points and 14+ rebounds in the Men's Basketball Championship. He is just the 6th player since seeding began in 1979 to have two such games in a single Men's Basketball Championship. |

He locked that up tonight. Anybody else getting it would be a joke. |

and some of the posters in those epic halsocan threads -- like chunks the hobo recounting waking up from a dream, being peed on by bill martin. handle-jacking just made it that much more crazy and entertaining. |
