does anyone have video of the last minute or two of the game?
Ill put one up when I get home if TT doesn't beat me to it.
If you're one of the lucky 11 people in America with espn360, the game is archived there for your viewing displeasure.
The committee has historically given Marquette a poor seed and a tough draw. I'm going with an 8 seed.
It just kills me how open Butler was under the basket.

says the vedio is not available HELP
looks like YouTube is taking a while to "process" it. Should be good in a minute or two.
At about the 17 second left mark Elmore points out that Redding "got away with one there" and then notes that Redding gets away with a push off with about 5 seconds to go. Add to that the no-foul call on McNeal's drive and that's a frustrating last 23 seconds for MU. But, that doesn't excuse McNeal letting his man go underneath for their winning basket.
OK, I've watched McNeal's drive about 10 times on the video. He drives the basket hard with lots of momentum, on a good angle, and yet the ball never reaches the rim and Villanova does not block it. So what happened?
Ah, I'm just frustrated with the loss, but how is that not a foul on Nova?
it was a famous no call
evry white jersey was on j mc. he easily could have dumped it back to i think hayward at the top of the key.
regardless, he had way too much time to do anything
Upon second review of Anderson's layup, I want to know what the hell Jerel was exactly guarding there. Looks like he cheated up, and I don't know what he was cheating up to stop.
We shut down Georgetown with the backdoor layups, but Jerel loses his man with 2 seconds left? What the (bleep)?

I want to say, "JEREL, IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT" but I know that's not true.
But I REALLY, REALLY want to say it.
jerel got caught up in the "moment" and like Akeem Olajuwon became stupified watching the ball. Like a second grader he stood there and wathed the ball. And like second graders are told when your man stares at the ball ake a back cut to the basket if the question is "what was he thinking?'...well unfortunately after 4 years it has never seemed like he thinks much at all
