What a game and I started watching in OT. I can only imagine if you've been watching all night (yeah, but Jon Stewart annihilating Cramer for dirty finance stuff was worth it)

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:19 PM

I only requested 3OTs... Sorry. ;)

Karlifornia 03-12-2009 11:19 PM

Triple OT at MSG in March..doesn't get better than this (NIT doesn't count).

What makes me really sick is that I am now hoping for UConn to open it up wide enough that they win by more than the number of Johnny Flynn's assists in this game (See Streak for the Cash thread). :)

sterlingice 03-12-2009 11:30 PM

Syracuse just won't go away

SI

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:30 PM

Man... this is a heavyweight fight.

Karlifornia 03-12-2009 11:33 PM

I smell a 4th OT on the horizon...

sterlingice 03-12-2009 11:34 PM

HOLY CRAP!

SI

sterlingice 03-12-2009 11:35 PM

4 OT!

god damn I love March.

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:35 PM

Unreal...

Can't believe UConn didn't get a better shot off w/ a TO left...

I'm right there with you, but I think that opportunity has now been lost for good.

Atocep 03-12-2009 11:37 PM

This day couldn't get any better.

larrymcg421 03-12-2009 11:37 PM

Now Dana will have to dump the show to Sally Sasser.

I still have faith.

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:39 PM

At the risk of jinxing him, I am impressed that Thabeet has gone so long w/o a foul.

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:40 PM

Ack...

Tigercat 03-12-2009 11:40 PM

Regardless of who wins this game, this Syracuse team has shown some serious, serious guts tonight.

sterlingice 03-12-2009 11:42 PM

Dude, they're so damn tired- what's hard to understand about how you miss a shot when you've been playing almost an hour

SI

Atocep 03-12-2009 11:42 PM

This game has gone on so long a big 10 team may have been able to break 50.

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:43 PM

Geez... 56-minutes for Devendorf!

Tigercat 03-12-2009 11:44 PM

4 OTs, possibly going on 5, and Syracuse hasn't lead once in OT? Incredible to hang in there like that while never leading.

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:48 PM

Holy crap!

sterlingice 03-12-2009 11:48 PM

What a horrible non-call there. He was murdered under the basket

SI

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:48 PM

If this was a WVU game, I would have absolutely no fingernails left.

Wow...

kcchief19 03-12-2009 11:49 PM

Jim Boeheim's head will explode if this goes 6 overtimes.

I don't see how you call that foul there if you didn't call it at the other end in the third OT.

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:49 PM

I'm debating whether or not this is worth waking my wife up for... :)

That looked a *lot* more clean on the replay than i expected.

larrymcg421 03-12-2009 11:51 PM

I wonder what the record is for minutes played by an individual in an NCAA game.

Agreed to a point, but the tall white dude under the basket took out the shooter's legs. There wasn't a giant smack from above because he was undercut

I agree, amazing day of basketball

illinifan999 03-12-2009 11:53 PM

Man Syracuse can't buy a basket from under the rim.

Swaggs 03-12-2009 11:54 PM

The Syracuse big men look like they have PTSD out there, even with Thabeet gone.

larrymcg421 03-12-2009 11:54 PM

Way too many close misses for Syracuse.

larrymcg421 03-12-2009 11:56 PM

Awesome. A walk-on in the game.

Tigercat 03-12-2009 11:57 PM

Would be crazy awesome if the walkon did something big to win/continue this game.

larrymcg421 03-12-2009 11:57 PM

Heh. The walk-on looked like he had ADD there. Calm down, kid.

Atocep 03-12-2009 11:58 PM

The walk-on doing jumping jacks and skipping around all over the court while the other 9 players want to crawl into a corner and go to sleep until tipoff tomorrow was fantastic.

Groundhog 03-13-2009 12:00 AM

OK. I need to download this game tonight me thinks.

Swaggs 03-13-2009 12:00 AM

Geez... 7 foul outs, so far.

Atocep 03-13-2009 12:00 AM

WVU typically doesn't press, but Huggs has to at least be entertaining the idea.

Galaxy 03-13-2009 12:00 AM

Syrcause just can't get a break under the rim.

Swaggs 03-13-2009 12:01 AM

Here we go again... :)

Karlifornia 03-13-2009 12:02 AM

LOL...When did Jonny Flynn ditch the headband? Must've sweated through it.

Tigercat 03-13-2009 12:02 AM

Good job with FTs considering how tired these guys must be.

Galaxy 03-13-2009 12:03 AM

Man....I'm getting a heart attack just watching this. I can't imagine what the coaches are going through.

kingnebwsu 03-13-2009 12:04 AM

This game is just unreal. UConn with a chance to win at the end of OT #5. OT #6, here we come?

I was ready to go to sleep 1.4 hours ago when Devendorf's shot went in. Now I'm almost as tired as these guys ;)

What a fun game to watch. Seriously.

Swaggs 03-13-2009 12:04 AM

Good lord...

larrymcg421 03-13-2009 12:04 AM

This is INSANE.

Galaxy 03-13-2009 12:04 AM

Holy crap.....Going to 6.

Galaxy 03-13-2009 12:04 AM

What's the NCAA record for most OTs and total minutes?

LloydLungs 03-13-2009 12:04 AM

K, this is quickly becoming the craziest thing I've ever seen in sports.

Karlifornia 03-13-2009 12:04 AM

I wish I would have drank my beer faster..I could have finished the 6-pack by now at one per overtime.

illinifan999 03-13-2009 12:05 AM

That Dick's commercial with Jimmy Rollins was pretty good.

7 overtimes, I believe.

Chief Rum 03-13-2009 12:06 AM

Damn, this is crazy. I keep wanting to watch UCLA, but how do you turn away from a game like this? Flynn vs Price, too. Two great guards going at it.

graphic just showed 7 in 1981 between I think Cincy and Bradley.

Lathum 03-13-2009 12:07 AM

This is the sickest shit I have ever seen.

I blame Swaggs.

And AJ Price for chucking up long threes in the final seconds of the last 2 OT's.

Galaxy 03-13-2009 12:07 AM

Wow....

If UConn wins this game I think it guarentees them a one seed, I find it hard to believe anyone would hold a loss tomorrow against them

illinifan999 03-13-2009 12:08 AM

Nice move by Harris

Might be worth resting their starters even.

illinifan999 03-13-2009 12:09 AM

Some ugly shots by uconn

Lathum 03-13-2009 12:09 AM

someday, a very long time from now these kids will look back fondly on this game.

a very long time

Swaggs 03-13-2009 12:10 AM

I woke my wife up.

She laughed, OMGed, said that it has to be good for us (WVU), and fell back asleep in 1.3 seconds.

Lathum 03-13-2009 12:10 AM

If this keeps up they will have to remove guys redshirts

hoopsguy 03-13-2009 12:10 AM

I'm not envisioning a 7th OT.

illinifan999 03-13-2009 12:10 AM

Get rejected by the rim, get the rebound, get a chance at a three point play. huge

Galaxy 03-13-2009 12:10 AM

best college game ever?

larrymcg421 03-13-2009 12:11 AM

Sadly, it doesn't look like we'll get a 7th OT.

Groundhog 03-13-2009 12:11 AM

If UCONN don't get the next two baskets of the game I don't think they can win this.

Tigercat 03-13-2009 12:11 AM

Fitting to see Harris hit rock bottom with his finishing and then finally redeem himself a second later.

Drake 03-13-2009 12:11 AM

I'm exhausted just watching this game.

Swaggs 03-13-2009 12:12 AM

I wonder how many timeouts there have been in this game.

Karlifornia 03-13-2009 12:12 AM

It's starting to resemble rec league out there...wild missed shots....rebounds falling to the floor.

LloydLungs 03-13-2009 12:14 AM

That line score looks like a bowling scorecard...

larrymcg421 03-13-2009 12:16 AM

C'mon, draw up a play for Thomas!

Atocep 03-13-2009 12:18 AM

Looking at the box score quickly; 201 shots and 85 free throws between these two teams.

Swaggs 03-13-2009 12:19 AM

It sounds cliche, but it really sucks that someone has to lose this one.

kcchief19 03-13-2009 12:19 AM

With 122 points, Syracuse has scored 51 points in OT, one short of the record by Baylor.

The two teams combined are six points short of tying the record for most points scored in OT by both teams.

sterlingice 03-13-2009 12:20 AM

C'mon, make it a little more interesting... :)

Groundhog 03-13-2009 12:21 AM

ESPN's game cast can't display the 6th OT period's score. :)

Swaggs 03-13-2009 12:22 AM

It's 'game flow' graph also isn't designed to show point totals above 120.

Sampras dominated that fifth set. But he was on the court with him way too long.

Flynn hugging Price in the handshake line. Good pic opp.

Izulde 03-13-2009 12:28 AM

I'm sorry to have missed this game, but I had way too much school stuff to do. :(
