If they had been playing anyone else, I would have rooted for them too and they were great. The refs like them too.MovingPictures07 wrote:Yeah, a treasured team or player losing like that is always tough.

I loved this team so much, losing like that was brutal. I almost wish they had us by 15 points at the end. It would have hurt, but not like that.
I didn't have any reason to root for one team over the other, but considering Villanova had less history of NCAA success, I am glad they at least had their 15 minutes of fame this year. Of course, I can understand why you and other UNC fans wouldn't feel that way though.
Yeah, I hurt for the seniors but we only had 3, so if we have all of them stay (please Odin, please) we may have a good shot if we get some good points from our bench.
My real concern is going to be Duke, I loathe them and they have a formidable roster next year.
