Irvine is a fun team to watch. They stayed composed even when they were down big in the first half. They are disciplined, confident and well coached. I sure hope they can bring the title home.
Nuts, I won't be able to watch the game live, because I need to help my brother in law. Plus the Warriors-Lakers game starts onky an hour after the NIT final.
Horrible foul called on Myles Che when the Chatty player kicked his leg out to the side while shooting a 3 and hit Che who was running by him and Che got called for a 3 point foul.
The Chatty player made all 3 FT's to take 2 point lead with 16 seconds to go in the game. Luckily, Che got fouled shooting a 3 with 13 seconds to go and tied up the game.
Chatty wins 85-84 in OT. God, what a heartbreaking way to lose. Jurian Dixon had a wide open, point blank shot at the buzzer but he didn't use the backboard and missed it. I feel sorry for the young man.
Can't believe Irvine missed 13 free throws, many of them in OT. They had this one and messed it up. I think they only lose Tillis and Leutchen from this year's team. They've got a lot of talent returning (assuming no one transfers) and with the Tritons losing their head coach and three key starters, Ihave to think the Anteaters will be in the NCAAs next year.
