4. Yup - don't think they realized how much the perimeter size would bother them.

5. Yes, congrats...wasn't the conventional wisdom that UCLA would won...
...Memphis was higher ranked, but UCLA had the experience, supposedly.

7. I kept seeing stuff about how a UNC-UCLA final would be good for
the game since they were the 2 best teams. Apparently not.

8. That's more of a money-making issue, I think.

12. this place has been berserk all week
People waiting in line to buy t shirts, everyone with dark blue on everywhere. It's all anyone talks about.

GO TIGERS!!!

Hey it is about the only thing bringing this city together.

CDR, Rose, I love 'em! And Calipari's coaching style really fits with this particular team. They are so exciting.

Can't wait for Monday night.

13. I underestimated Memphis
Good coaching, good shooting, speed, and quickness. They have all of those. Teams with that combination do not lose very often.
