Anybody Awake? Syracuse over UConn in 6 OTs!

[PTownHawkeye]

What a game...I just turned it on in bed as I was getting ready to fall asleep. Here I am, an hour later and 3 OT later back in my "man cave" sitting on the edge of my seat. This is truly the best game I've watched this year.

[MikeCash]

I am. I shouldn't be...but I can't turn it off now.

[pfunk880]

This game is absurd. I only started watching at the beginning of OT and essentially I'm going to see at least an extra half.

These players just have to be gassed. WVU has to be excited to play the winner of this game tomorrow.

We have been talking about it on the conf. upset thread......But what a game, Syracuse has fouled out 3 guys so far and they played late last night! Thabeet gone....going to be interesting in this 4th OT!

[PTownHawkeye]

Thabeet fouls out. Without him, UConn would have lost...twice. I think the Orange have a good chance of taking this one, as long as Paul Harris can avoid fouling out.

Boy, Johnny Flynn is my new favorite non-Bradley or Iowa PG in college basketball. Quick, under control, solid defense.

[pfunk880]

Yeah, Thabeet fouling out changes everything here.

Sorry, I didn't realize that! I just figured everyone was sleeping and I'd start my own thread to talk to myself.

[bigdaddystuck]

Going to come down to if Syracuse has the stamina to come up with some stops. Should be able to take it right at the rim with Thabeet out.

[jeffsu]

This is nuts. 104 all.

[Rusty 54]

This may be the best game this year

[bigdaddystuck]

38.3 to go and the game tied.....surprised more Syracuse guys haven't cramped up.

[bigdaddystuck]

Love this.....just glad I don't have to work tomorrow!

I was just about to post the exact same thought. I find myself rooting for a 5OT game rather than either team. With so many players having 4 fouls, we may get to see some walk-ons who haven't played much all year or an unlikely hero of some sort.

[Scouter]

Just showed this is the fourth four-OT game in the NCAA this season. No game has gone five OTs.

[jeffsu]

5OT?! Are you kidding me?!
