Baylor is just really good. Seems like the Zaga/Baylor match is inevitable. And Houston really wasn't playing bad it's just Baylor comes up with runs so easily.

Houston has to shoot well or they have no shot. They're currently at 27% -- that's a recipe for getting run out of the gym.
 
Hoo-boy, I'm glad I'm not a Houston fan watching this halftime show. Barkley is pulling no punches. Tough stuff to listen to if you're a Cougars fan (even tougher to watch, of course, but man, Barkley's writing them off with emphasis).
 
I’m confused? How is Baylor out rebounding Houston 20-11 when Houston has those 4 horses inside that are all 6’8 rebounding machines? 7 rebounds COMBINED for the four of them and 0-1 COMBINED for all four guys....
 
I appreciate kelvin for trying to take ou out of the record book for worst final four loss ever

Me too, because we all know how it feels. But I would be happy that they have not given up.

Houston just doesn't have the talent Baylor does. I guess we'll see if Gonzaga does. .

Ya... didn’t Kruger and Ou give up the biggest spread in FF history a few yrs ago?

Bash on sampson... that’s cool but your boy Kruger is in the FF record books as well.
 
Easy money on that one. UH was never going to be able to keep up with Baylor's scoring.

Have two teams ever started the season ranked 1 and 2, been ranked 1 and 2 nearly all season, and then met in the NC game? I think it's pretty safe to say that Baylor and Zaga are the easily the two best teams in the country. I actually think Baylor wins the game on Monday, assuming they aren't ice cold from 3.
 
Side note, the other day I was thinking about Sampson's two FF teams. I honestly don't think a single player on their team today would have started for that OU team. You could argue Jarreau would have been interesting as a penetrater and defender, but I'll stick with Q's 41% three point shooting to help space things out.

Hollis > Sasser
Ere > Grimes - this one is close, but it feels like Ere was the more rounded player, and Grimes the better pure shooter
Ace > Gorham
Brown > Chaney - Brown just way more athletic, and the better shot alter-er in the paint, neither overly good on offense in general, Brown bigger too

You could maybe argue that Houston is better defensively but offensively it's not even closes that the OU team is better. Jason Detrick was a good scoring guy off the bench too. Darian Selvy was also an underrated glue guy off the bench.
