I didn’t get to watch that Iowa State game and tortured myself with the replay of both Kansas and Iowa State.

I also then watched Houston vs Tennessee.

That game vs Houston may be the most intense non tourney game I’ve seen in a long time and it was in large part that way because of missed FTs and bad calls. The impact of how intense affected both us vs Kansas and Houston vs Tennessee.

Houston then got to go play Notre Dame as a reprieve in game 3 and we got an Iowa State team that had an easier game against a less physical Creighton team before us while we had to deal with a Kansas team a bit desperate for wins after struggling coming in.

This reminded me a lot of playing in AAU tournaments when I played soccer many years back where we ran out of gas in the final round robin game due to the intensity of the first 3 games. It’s not all that far from the second half of the BE championship against the Ville after the 6OT game and then OT again vs WVU.

Not one single team played the same slate as we did not even the team that won it- Michigan who may want to play all their games in Vegas given how they shot it there after only beating Wake by a point earlier in the year.
