2013 had the best defense and enough talent on offense to win a NC.
2011 had Senior Rick Jackson who was a force on the glass and when we fed him the ball. Rick Jackson dominated a physical Michigan State team that year in the Jimmy V at MSG. Not many people do that to a Michigan State team out physical them.
2011 had problems because Triche and Waiters didn’t like each other and Scoop was in the middle. Freshman Waiters was a little churpy and didn’t get along with Triche and was mouthy to the coaching staff.
That caused tension.
I thought the 2011 team got screwed in the selection process they should have been a 2 seed but got bumped down to 3 seed for a bad loss to UConn in the BET and for some reason got paired with Marquette who beat them in the regular season in Milwaukee as part of that 4 game losing streak.
That Marquette team had Jimmy Butler and Jae Crowder on it. They shouldn’t have been an 11 seed it was bad luck.
If the Big East wasn’t dominant that year we get a better draw and that team should have been a sweet 16 or elite 8 team. We lost a tight game to that very NBA talented Marquette team where the officials screwed us on a last second call and the NCAA publicly apologized for it. Such a joke.

I believe 2013 would beat 2011 because of the defense but watching Brandon Triche on both teams would be a Lost time warp thing.
2011 had better offense because of Jackson.
