got tired of hearing how good they were all week. Even the play-by-play guys said the better team lost. The better team lost by, what, 40 pts? Now Oklahoma you get to go home and figure it out.
 
I disagree. I don't think Oklahoma played loose at all. :cool:

What a difference a year makes for Villanova. Last year they were upset by NC State as a #1 seed. This year they're dominating very good opponents. They have an excellent shot at beating UNC if they can deal with Carolina's size.
 
They are only slightly smaller than Carolina but they seem to play a lot of kids who all contribute on O and D.

It should be a great game.

Big 12 and the other 3 no-show power conferences can shut up now...

Villanova will have good chance tonight. The refs will swallow their whistles and UNC will have to make shots both inside and out to win. UNC makes shots (shoot 55% or better and 40% from 3) they will win. UNC doesn't shoot well (less than 50%) I think Villanova will win. Villanova has shot well in the tournament and I expect they will continue to do so (need to shoot 60% or better to win). UNC size and depth less of a factor when there are not a lot of fouls called. I expect a close game and Iwill be rooting for the ACC (but down really have a strong feeling either way)

Ok, UNC was 11 of 17 from 3 (65%) but only shoot 43% overall (big reason they lost). Villanova shot over 58% (not quiet 60%, but close). A great game for the NCAA Final. Villanova had 16 fouls (mostly in the second half). Both teams played well and it came down to a buzzer beater. Great tournament this year. Maybe VT gets in next year!
