2 Big East schools in men's and women's Final 4

Postby LA_Mustang » Sun Mar 31, 2013 8:44 pm

Well, 2 future ACC schools and Louisville. Louisville is carrying the torch for whatever our conference will be named. I still hope we open Moody against the defending champs, Louisville.

More money for SMU is always a good thing. I hope the Louisville men and women keep winning.

the women's game Baylor/Louisville had an extremely exciting finish. was pulling for Louisville who out coached the mighty Baylor team. They shut down their 6'8" wonder women and rain 3's to negate her blocking ability. Oh, the charge on Baylor at the end was legitimate and the Baylor coach temper tantrum was over the top.

She was still blaming the officials in the post game press conference. IMO, she went too far with it. And i agree with bubba pony, her reaction to the call was way over the top. The call looked 50/50 to me. That game dominated Sportscenter, mostly because i think ESPN was trying to avoid the elephant in the room, the Ware broken leg. I still can't get that out of my head. But on the bright side, congrats to our future conference mates. Sending your men and women to the Final 4 in the same year is very impressive.

isn't Louisville moving to the ACC? so they are not our future conference mates. It's hard to keep track.

The women's team isn't in the final four yet. They still have to beat Tennessee in the elite eight tomorrow

Syracuse moves to the ACC in July of this year. Louisville moves in July of 2014 and will replace Maryland. That will leave the ACC with 14 football members and 15 basketball members (Notre Dame). Hopefully, we can have a nice year and continue to build our resume.

You're right. I guess a slight oversight on my part. 8)

LA, i am with you, the Ware injury bothered me all day yesterday, and I went to sleep thinking about it last night. May never forget it.

I'm sure everyone in that arena will never forget it either. I just hope he's a tough minded young man because it would be very hard to deal with mentally even if he heals physically 100%
