I've wondered. Why not put in all the scrubs who haven't played a minute? They should be fresher and quicker.

Are the worn out players in the normal rotation really that much better than the scrubs?

Syracuse just took their first lead of any of the overtimes.

I think they did in one case. A walk on got his first rebound of the season.

I think Syracuse had no choice because they already have had 4 players foul out.

And Syracuse wins! So with Connecticut and Pittsburgh having been knocked out of the tournament, Louisville's chance for a #1 seed have increased (assuming they can get past Villanova).

I gave up after 3 OTs

Husband1111 turned it off in the 6th OT when it was Syracuse by 10 or something with 1 minute to go. Or what ever it was.

Lot of bleary eyed people here today.

i fell asleep during the last OT

jury duty tired me out

i think its good for pitt that they can rest their injured players

i remember brandin knight getting hurt in the tourney in 03ish, and it slowed him a great deal in the ncaas.

their #1 seed is in the bag anywho

If they can't make college hoops any better than this--I'm switching to curling.
