Between our low number of missed shots and our offensive rebounds, we only really wasted 24 possessions in this game (missed shots - offensive rebounds + turnovers).  I haven't exactly tracked that number/statistic in the past, and obviously the pace of the game would be a modifying factor, but it sure looks from the results like we were very efficient.

Well, this is quite an improvement from yesterday.

Conference awards came out.  Freund is the player of the year, Jennings is the Freshman of the year.

We play Illinois tonight.  Their coach is the coach of the year.  They're ranked 15th with only 9 players under scholarship, and improved on their wins from last year, so I can understand that.

A 1-seed is (probably) on the line tonight.

That gives us our 17th Big Ten CT championship.  Our nearest competitor, Wisconsin, has 6.  Of the 17, 11 have come under the colorblind79 moniker.

We earned a 1 seed in the NT and are playing Sim-coached MEAC CT Champion, Howard University, which has an overall team rating of 650.  This should not be close, but 1 seeds only really get one bye.

RPI 5, SOS 19, ranked 1st

This is a pretty formula-type domination.  Nutter gave us a really nice contribution this game.

That's a tough 9 seed.  They've lost to a lot of the good teams in their conference, consistently, in compiling a 20-10 record, but also beat Oregon State, which was ranked 4th at the time (and has a higher overall team rating than Michigan State).  So this is not a gimme by any means.

Coach, it happens every year - teams get upset in the first round. Thankfully, this was not our year! Congratulations and best of luck in round 2.

Stanford was more talented than the normal 9 seed, but they hadn't really put it together all year.  Still, I've had talented teams that went on a run in the NT in spite of mixed success during the regular season, and it was possible for us to lose this game.  I'm glad that we won, and did so comfortably.

Incidentally, I won National Coach of the Year (but oddly, not Conference CoY), the third for colorbind79 in Smith, including one last year.

Coach, I'm not going to lie, I was probably as guilty as anyone of looking at our path to the Final Four instead of focusing on our first round game. Honestly, it's tough just to make it to the Sweet 16. Great job staying focused.

Our next opponent, 4th seed Kentucky, against whom I have a 4-1 record.  Nonethless, they're talented as always and a real threat to beat us.  Freund's only real area of advantage over his counterpart at PG is in speed, though I can't see anywhere that we're exactly overmatched.

Coach, with all the upsets, it's no small feat to reach the Elite 8. You've done a fantastic job and I'm sure I don't need to remind you, you're half way to a National Championship. Good luck in the Elite 8.

Coach, with all the upsets, you've really accomplished something by making it to the Final 4. I hope all this doesn't go to your head :) Good luck in the Final 4.

Now it gets really hard.  Every one of the remaining teams is as talented as the Spartans, if not more so.  Here's our next one, a 1 seed, Syracuse:

 This was a crazy game...went to OT.  We lead by 9 at the end of the first half, but they clawed back into it with better FT shooting and some forced turnovers.  Juhl was our closer in OT, though his FT shooting could've been better there and at other times of the game.  An unbelievable victory.  One more win and we repeat as champions.

Ah, but who are we facing?  Maryland, who beat us in OT at their place during non-conference play.  They are very talented, and haven't won a Championship in 27 seasons or so.

We were ahead by 2 at the half but did not do well in the last 20 minutes.  Our FT shooting was not good and our defense didn't do what it's done all year, and we are denied our second consecutive National Championship.  Oh well.  Regardless, it was a fantastic year.

Coach, don't be down. I know every coach dreams of winning a National Championship, but most never make it to the Final 4, much less to the championship game. That was still a dream season! I'm sure no one on campus will soon forget the job you did to take Michigan St. this far.

Shockingly, Roy Freund is staying at least one more year.  I don't know how much room he has to grow at this point but he should help us contend again for the title.

We are, however, losing James Juhl and Nicholas Rosen (a freshman!).

Time for retrospectives.
