Yep, how the heck does a team of McDonald's All-Americans only have 2 shooters on the entire roster?

2011 with Butler and Uconn was way worse. I can't remember the exact score but it was 40 something to 50 something, and I think both teams were still in the teens at halftime.

Meh, about like every ACC I watch. A good game gets ruined

by endless whistles that disrupt the flow of the game. By the time the game gets back to normal one team is out of it due to foul trouble and foul shots.

That's what it's come to; the last few I've watched have

been that way. Played at frenetic, break-neck speed at all times. Players out of control much of the time. Sloppy. Ugly.

Last year's game was pretty solid. Especially at the end (regulation/OT).

I am not sure about the worst, but I definitely...

feel that we were ripped off. They needed to be let play. I am sure Skip will be complaining about that tomorrow. The refs really took away from what could have been a great one.

Agreed, I told a friend out in Eugene that earlier this year. I miss the old Big East games with all the great Big Men battling, teams running g up and down like the team UNLV had back around 1989/1990, the ACC around that same time, the Fab 5, ect. It is nowhere even close to those days, imho.

I'm fine with the refs as long as they call it even. The over-matched Zags big men stacked up the fouls early then the refs were too scared to foul Collins and Andre out. Refs seemed eager to keep the game close. Phantom tipped ball at the end gifting the Zags a 3 point possession. Overall #### job by the refs but the right team won.

Zags looked liked they were playing with confidence the first 15 minutes. Big guy couldn't make shots down low. I thought they had it if they came out after half time with same intensity. Got real sloppy towards the end on both sides of the ball. NC played D second half, kept it lower scoring, but both teams were shooting air balls, NC Meeks made biggest difference, unlike Big guy from Zags. Intensity at times were great, overall, wouldn't watch again. Hats off to the winner
