    I call shenanigans...

    It's all fixed/rigged...how much $$ did Vegas make this week with all of those #1 seeds loosing? It's too profitable to leave it up to the athletes alone. Let's see if NC can survive...

    I've never seen a game turn like this game did. Virginia was up 54-39 with 9 minutes left, total control, and they lose. And Virginia is a team that slows it down and if they get up its over. Shocking game to say the least.

    UVA doesn't draw fouls, and Brogdon didn't step up against good competition

    A team that coming was an 8 point dog hardly ever happens.

    Virginia had been 54-1 since 2005 when up by at least 14 at halftime. They were up 15 with 9 minutes left. 5dimes wasn't even listing a ML thinking the game was over at that point. This is a game you'll never see again your life.

    A team down 15 under 10 minutes left hardly ever wins.

    An 8 point underdog in that situation might win 1% of the time.

    It happened with the purdue game with less time and 9 point under dog came back and won. I believe it was purdue -9 that game against little rock.

    Horrible coaching down the stretch by Tony Bennett. How many times did they break the Cuse press, then immediately try and go for the fast break layup and miss rather than just pulling the ball out and setting up an offense (ya know the gameplan they executed to go up by 17 points...) Syracuse did not out play them, they were out coached.

    Charles said it after the game. Simply amazing these coaches just do not make in game adjustments. What soever

    It just made absolutely no sense while watching it. You'd think someone would have had the sense to yell "HEY STOP IT YOU IDIOTS" after they missed the 4th layup in a row

    And the lovely Virginia "0 FG in 6:46min"

    That's true. There's been 3 epic comeback games in this year's tourney - Purdue, Virginia, Northern Iowa.

    There weren't any games like that the last 5 years. Just one of those years. I do think the shortened shot clock this year's causing more swings in the game.

    Boeheim did. That was the ballsiest all in press I've ever seen. Four dudes on the first forty feet of the court and one guy at home literally under the basket.
