I have to say, probably one of the best basketball games I've ever watched. Unbelievable stamina on both sides of the ball.

UConn put up a great fight.

Go Orange!

Awesome. I watched as much as I could but c'mon. Go 'Cuse. Next up West Virginia if there's any gas left in the tank.:D

It should be interesting - a team that they just beat handily a few days ago, who whooped Pitt like they owned them, and the Orange could be completely gassed from last night.

Should be interesting.

The game is already an "instant classic" on ESPN.

I don't think the Orange will win tonight (that game was like playing two in a row), and recent UConn teams haven't faired well post season, but I think the win gives 'Cuse a big pump up before the big show.

Holy Cow! I am so impressed with the toughness of Syracuse to come back tonight and beat a quality West Virginia team, also in overtime. (Just one though.)

Now they are going to play my Louisville Cardinals for the Big East Championship. I am rooting for my Cards, but the Orange certainly have my respect.

Awesome game last night. I figured SU would run out of gas in the second half - not taking anything away from Louisville and I'm not sure SU could have beaten them at 100%, but it was clear they were whipped.

The Cards deserve a 1 seed in the tourney and I'm just happy that SU helped itself with regards to seeding as well.
