The game of the weekend was erratic with no flow, but it was a big game by nature. Villanova was able to trade two three-pointers for three 2-pointers early, but once the UConn defense intensified in the 2nd half, and the 3s stopped dropping, it was over. One suggestion for Jim Calhoun: Why not try this lineup against the Villanova four-guard lineup: Adrien, Gay, Anderson, Brown, and Marcus "Laptop" Williams?
Credit should be given to Gus Johnson. He never takes a play off as a play-by-play guy. And a lot of times he has more intensity than the players on the court.
Memo to Mike Davis: You may want to avoid incoherent mumbling during press conferences if you want to land another job.
These teams helped their NCAA cause during the weekend: Indiana, UTEP, Arkansas, Alabama.
These teams should start preparing their arenas for NIT banners: Maryland, Stanford, Kentucky (!), USC (so they may have not played their last game at the LA Arena just yet).
Many places had their senior nights. A salute to all the graduating seniors or seniors on a graduation path.
