Damn I go to UConn. 🙁
Thank goodness it's friday. I watched it all. Syracuse deserved that win - they simply wanted it more. WV will most likely beat them just becaue they'll be so gassed. It's happened before with PITT - a game a day will wear you out, not to mention this gut buster.
I loved the missed dunks. It's like the players looked at their legs and yelled "WTF is wrong with you! WORK!"
C-A-R-D-S!

Missed OTs 5 & 6; dragged at work this morning. I'm glad I scheduled my afternoon off for today's games.
A game like this raises some NCAA rule questions:
First, am I right that a team can continue playing even if it can no longer field five players due to disqualifications?
Second, let's take this to extremes!!! Assume both teams have held on to where they each has just one player left. Player A scores a basket, giving his team a tie, then fouls Player B, fouling out of the game as he sends Player B to the free throw line. Player B, utterly exhausted from the 158 minutes he's already played, misses both free throws and also manages to lose the ball out-of-bounds. With no player from Team A eligible to throw the ball into play, what do they do?
(Yes, I know it's an absurd question, but in my dazed-but-still-hoops-ready state, I WANT TO KNOW!!!)

OK, I went and looked it up. From NCAA Official 2009 Basketball rules, Rule 3, Section 1:
...which also answers my second question, essentially that when the referee decides that, due to disqualifications, one team no longer has a chance to win, he shall decide a forfeit.
