Was the moment too big for us?

[Lennys Tap]

To answer the original question: Was the moment too big for us?

I don't know why this moment would have been bigger than the Butler moment or the Miami moment or even the final moments of the Davidson moment.

There was lots of talk about Miami being a Final Four team capable of destroying us and our lads played about as close to a perfect game as they can play. On national TV. First game of the weekend. All eyes upon us. In an NBA arena. Etc, etc, etc.

Syracuse beat us, plain and simple. Despite not being able to hit a shot, we hung in pretty well, down only 4 well into the second half, but you can only hang on for so long against an excellent team.

Great season, one in which we repeatedly excelled in lots of big moments. It was a thrill to watch, and I wish it weren't over.

Agree. Was the "moment " of a first round game too big for Georgetown, Wisconsin or New Mexico? A second round game too big a moment for Gonzaga? A Sweet 16 game too big a moment for Indiana, Kansas or Miami? Please.
