What a game! That was fantastic, instant classic
Things just went so ideal for Kansas to come back, tie, and take over in OT
My guys pulled it out in awesome fashion - truly a team win right there, Chalmers, Jackson, Arthur, Rush, Robinson, Collins
Mario Chalmers is the man - what a tough guard... that shot he hit will be remembered forever, a great piece of basketball history

so i guess kansas wins a big game every 20 years
ive always hated kansas, but ive liked brandon rush and julian wright (i know he's gone) game since they were freshman, so i was happy for rush and would like for the pro scouts to take a liking to him b/c i think he can be an effective pro, kid'n'play haircut and all

Man I feel bad for Memphis. They had this game. This was a great game. Rose gonna make a great pro but all he and CDR had to do was make 1 free throw. This is gonna haunt them for a long time b/c that was the difference.

hope this doesnt make rose stay another year cause i wanna see him in the NBA next season.
Am I the only one who saw them foul Kansas so hard the player fell to the ground? The refs clearly decided to swallow the whistle on that.
My response to the game in general: There is nothing more pathetic than losing a championship due to missing free throws. I honestly didn't think we'd ever see it again. Douglas-Roberts really dropped in my eyes for this, particularly because he's your classic "scorer". If you can't count on him to hit free throws when it matters, that's a huge problem.

Wow, what an Amazing game, as a Kansas fan I can relate to what Memphis is going through, we had Nick Collison miss some really key free throws in the championship game a few years ago. Tonight was a rollercoaster, I had pretty much lost all hope but Memphis slipped and Kansas really stepped up.
I this was not just Memphis mistakes though Kansas made some HUGE shots, Collins made a great pair of plays getting KU right back into things and Chalmers shot was as big as it gets, he showed fortitude on a night when others might have lacked the humongous spheres to can that shot.
Rock Chalk Jayhawk Go KU!!!
