Last night's game between Louisville and Michigan was one of the best final games in years. Both teams played at a high octane pace. Role
players stepped up and made significant contributions on both teams. Before this Final Four, nobody mention Luke Hancock or Spike Albrecht.
Hancock wound up being the Most Outstanding Player of the finals, the
time a sub has ever received that honor.
Some questionable decisions by Michigan Coach Beilein played a part
in the outcome. During the first half, the decision to sit Burke so long while
Louisville was making a run to get back in the game. I gave him a pass
on that one because Michigan had the lead. At the end of the game,he
should have removed Burke and Mcgary because they had 4 fouls each.
They could not foul and the team was trailing with under a minute left.
I can't give him a pass for that one.
Congratulations to Louisville Coach Pitino for being the first to win a
national title with two schools. Pitino was also elected to the basketball
hall of fame. He has always been one of my favorite coaches and is
deserving of his selection.
Louisville won this game because they played smarter down the stretch.
Michigan seem to run out of gas and could not pull down a key rebound
after playing good defense. Speaking of good defense, was this a foul?
Louisville over Michigan 82 - 76
