Congrats To Louisville

Man, that was some basketball game! I'd watch more basketball if more games were that exciting. First off, let's give credit to Michigan. John Beilein had his team ready to play, and they made it one heck of a game. From Spike Albrecht being completely unconscious in the first half, to Trey Burke and Glen Robinson III keeping Michigan in it until the very end of it, Michigan played extremely well. You have got to give the Wolverines a ton of credit. They're a young team; they'll make some more noise in the coming years.

But, hats off to Rick Pitino and the Louisville Cardinals! Even when Albrecht was nailing one three-pointer after another, Luke Hancock was there to save the day, or at least the first half. Peyton Siva and Chane Behanan took over in the second half to lead the Cardinals to a ten-point lead with under three minutes left that they wouldn't relinquish. Must be nice to be Rick Pitino right now; win the National Championship, have your son land a head-coaching job, and get inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. Congrats again to the Louisville Cardinals on winning National Championship!

(I had Michigan State going all the way in case you were wondering how my bracket turned out)
