TNT is also showing it - floor seems to be much less annoying.

They have team streams on TNT and Tru TV.

The Sooners are in a lot of trouble here.

Well

Peace out Sooners

62-41 so far with 12 min to go

Wow! I knew Nova was good, but I never expected this. Oklahoma looks completely lost. I thought the game was going to be close. 72-41

It will be interesting to see if that was the biggest points to zero points runs we've ever seen in a final four game. I'm pretty sure I saw 22-0 and my guess is it ended higher than that.

FreeSpiritCat · Post by **FreeSpiritCat** » Sat Apr 02, 2016 5:04 pm

It was 46-37 with about 16 minutes to go. Next thing I know it was 78-41.

SCCats · Post by **SCCats** » Sat Apr 02, 2016 5:09 pm

A quick look makes it seem like a 25-0 run. Probably a chance for a record for final four. Other potential records: margin of victory, shooting percentage

Reminds me of the second half of the 2001 semi-final game vs Michigan State. Glad for Jay Wright. Villanova can beat UNC.

Go WILDCATS!

Always liked Villanova and Jay Wright, even after they rocked our world in the second round game a few years back.

SCCats · Post by **SCCats** » Sat Apr 02, 2016 5:47 pm

Wow Roy has been the UNC coach for 13 years?

My pops went to Nova, so I'm pretty pumped right now.

The announcers on the Syracuse team stream were the biggest homers I've ever heard.

Isn't that the point?

I really wish the NCAA would put the final 4 back in basketball arenas. If they need to make up the revenue, just double prices or bring back beer sales. 60,000 of the 75,000 people there Saturday had terrible seats. I ended up watching the big screen more than the court.

There's homers and homers. They spent the entire second half yelling at refs, rooting for a comeback and talking trash about UNC and its fans.

It was like they let two fans do the broadcast.

Tickets are dirt cheap on the secondary market. Like $60-$100. That does not say "Premiere Event" to me.

Neither does airing it on TBS for that matter...

go nova, i guess.

someone please lemme know when one shining moment is on...

CalStateTempe · Post by **CalStateTempe** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 6:46 pm

This is a really good game.

My crazy daughter (20mo) is cheering incessantly whenever the Tarheels have the ball!

Which is crazy because I haven't watched one UNC game since being back west. (I think she's taking after dad when the CATS are on)

In fairness, mom's ObGyn was out of UNC and my daughters first BB game at 7mo was UNC vs UVA at the Dean Dome. Coworkers from UNC hooked her up with some sippy cups that she drinks milk out of daily.

FreeSpiritCat · Post by **FreeSpiritCat** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 6:46 pm

I think Nova better close out better on the 3-point shooters in the corner. They have been burned 3 times in a row.

Post by **UAdevil** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 6:46 pm

Yeah, fun first half so far. Intensity all around.

Maybe UNC should just shoot 3's.

Great game. Has to be frustrating for Nova, because Carolina is not usually a good three-point shooting team. Anyway, some great individual plays.

Nova's D is lights out right now. Carolina is in trouble.

It's amazing how enjoyable a basketball game be when the refs decide to just let the players play and get the hell out of the way

Go nova

Totally. I am really enjoying watching this entire game unfold.

"Hot hand" reference! Nova is nails. Impressed.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 8:05 pm

Let's go 'Nova!

Spaceman Spiff · Post by **Spaceman Spiff** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 8:10 pm

This is a legit good game. Nova has been great, but UNC isn't giving up.

Oh boy, here we go

Arch with the Miles Simon moves.

Spaceman Spiff · Post by **Spaceman Spiff** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 8:17 pm

Nova's got this...except for missing freethrows.

84Cat · Post by **84Cat** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 8:20 pm

I'm not a fan of either team, but I'm a little sorry someone has to lose this.

Dude, I don't know about that call.

Bail out call

84Cat · Post by **84Cat** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 8:24 pm

Got to foul before the shot here

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 8:25 pm

That is why Sean Miller fouls when up by 3 most of the time.

Spaceman Spiff · Post by **Spaceman Spiff** » Mon Apr 04, 2016 8:25 pm
