      Wow, Kentucky ties it spectacularly, but Santa Clara's coach was calling for a timeout after SC had made a 3 of their own with 2.4 seconds and the refs (at least a little understandably in the chaotic finish) didn't see Herb Sendek calling for the timeout. But in the 10-15 minutes I'd seen before the refs seemed to favor Kentucky a lot.

        I, too, decided that life can hold so many bumps and bruises but I can just look outside and see the birds or deer and appreciate the beauty of my surroundings and move on from a loss much easier than when I was going to a game here every year and getting to know the program so well and was heavily invested in it. I want the team to play well and win and do it for themselves first and then the fans next. Seeing all the close games so far when one would think it was a cakewalk (Duke), makes me realise that our approach has to be better than what we have seen in the past. I think it will be. Positivity is the ticket! Melvin said most of the country is counting us out. Rested Melvin will be the dawg right out of the gate.

                      @Tallturd1 We let it slip away, poor foul management and no D on last drive

                        I think Roy called it "olé" defense. That last play certainly was that.

                        But seriously, with 5 min left if you had said "Would you like to be tied with 5 seconds left and St John's has the ball?" I would have said YES 1000% YES.

                          Tyus Edney (way back when...destroying Mizzou's (last?) F4 chance) proved to the world of basketball that it is really hard to stop a blazingly fast player driving down the court for a last second basket if you are desperately trying not to foul. Melvin's biggest contributions yesterday were proof of that principle (even tho not last second).
