Major props to entire UCLA team, especially Mick cronin

That was a clinic

Met him at Westin southie in 2012/3 whenever he took Cincy to Sweet 16 at TD
Couldn't have been more gracious
Great guy

That was mind-bogglingly good on every level. Phenomenal game with an all-time ending, in the Final Four. Hard to get better than that.

Just logged on to say, WOW.

That's easily one of the best 5 college games I've ever seen, an amazing finish.

Mick Cronin had his kids ready to play from the opening whistle, and the Bruins deserve a ton of credit for everything.

That said, Baylor/Gonzaga, for all of the marbles is exactly how this season should be ending.

Realistically speaking, you really couldn't have asked UCLA to do much more in that game.

Gonzaga proved they can win the close one. Baylor can't be thrilled about that.

I feel bad for ucla. But that’s a top 5 ever game right?
Probably, especially including the Finish.

Duke vs UK in 92 is the only one I can think of in the class, given game quality and meaning

Maybe Houston vs NC St, but that had a great finish, but it was pre shot clock, and not a tremendously well played game as both teams shot very poorly
