Congrats Wisconsin. 98 for 100 from the 3 point line in the 2nd half was impressive.

5 straight EE appearances ending in a tough loss. When the FF does finally come it will be sweet. Hate that TJ didn't get there.

Hey you! Fuck off!!!

I like Arizona, they're probably my favorite Pac 12 team. But that was disgraceful, burned off the dribble every single time, biting on every pump fake, losing your man and allowing wide open 3s, stupid fouls, that was horrendous.

Still think Kentucky's unbeatable, people?

But seriously, I feel awful for Arizona. That second half was insane offense. We have the best offense ever, but even with our normal offense, we lose that game.

No offense to MSU or Louisville, but Arizona belongs in Indy so much more than either of them. That team is damn good.

Didn't get to see 90% of the game but it looks like it was a tight one pretty much the whole way. Sorry I missed it.

Wide open 3's?? what game were you watching? Maybe 2 or 3 of the 247 3's they made in the 2nd half weren't well contested.

I seriously hope you guys keep up the shooting against Kentucky .I don't know how that's possible... but I didn't know how it was possible to keep it up after the first 75 3's in this game... so why not?

Good luck Wisconsin. Back to back FF for a great coach who unfairly got criticized for never getting there.

Said it once, I'll say it again...

Mother fuck the East region.

In better news, I've correctly picked 100% of the Elite Eight games so far.

You were closer to losing against MSU in the Big Ten tourney than you were tonight.

The last few there was nothing you could do about, but there were several instances where Wisconsin had quite a bit of room to shoot it

GG Wisky (again).

THought we were going to settle in after half, and you guys punched us in the mouth. Defense was slacking because of foul trouble, but then in the last 10-15 minutes it just didn't matter. Sucks that so many fouls were called on both teams but Wisky didn't get rattled and we did.

All you can realistically hope for in a season is to play hard for a FF. We competed. Great season AZ. UW, go get UK.

Bear Down.

CTP is always a class act after these tough losses. Actually, I've learned from you and Gumby over the last few seasons to be more like that.

I'm not a Sparty hater (I have you in the Final Four), but if our guys shoot like we did in the game tonight, we beat you by 15. I mean, we were 8-10 on threes, and most of the other possessions, we were getting points by attacking.
