A possible Houston UCLA final! Now there’s a blast from the past! 😎 I was bragging to my professors earlier today at UH because my ACU wildcats were the biggest upset and my cougs have a shot to make up for lost time.

For those of you who watched the game last night, it was one for the ages. UCLA did a really good job in the 1st half of controlling the game. As the game went one, they struggled with containing the Zags. Gonzaga is truly something to watch. My hats off to the Bruins. I think, like us, you took it further than many expected and walk away with your heads high. Gonzaga vs Baylor will be a great game.

UCLA played about as well as a National Champion. In overtime, I thought there was one particularly low probability shot from the left side beyond the circle and the Zags rebounded and then went down and hit a three to go up five. Had that one shot gone in, who knows the ultimate outcome. I just felt that was one of many keys during a great and competitive game -- it was the moment when I thought I might know the outcome of the game. What an honor for us to have competed toe to toe with such a scrappy team with no give up and no excuses. The Zags and Bruins played a game unmatched in my memory. My portal order for Timme has been confirmed.
I do have one negative reaction to the game. The officials were very questionable. They blew a lot of calls. They seemed fair, but acted as if they had been recruited from the NBA. I do agree with the surprise on the faces of some of the UCLA players that many calls were flat wrong. Nevertheless, those were two classy and great teams. There has to be only one winner but in my mind the toughness of both teams showed me two winners.

UCLA v Gonzaga was absolutely the second most exciting game of the tournament.

UCLA v Gonzaga was absolutely the second most exciting game of the tournament. Absolutely. The ACU game vs. Texas will be remembered forever. It was especially pleasing to hear the commentators after the game.
