CDR should blame Rasho

Worst choke I can recall in college/pro sports... particularly by CDR. Wow.

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

Erin Andrews is a prophet. She correctly guessed the recent 3 winners (Florida x2 and Kansas).

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.

Im more of a K-State guy, but being that we have no pro teams, I have to root for what we have :p
It was a great game, though, and KU truly deserved the win with their play. Congrats

o and congrats to darrell arthur too, saw him play in high school and i always like to see local guys do well, his HS south oak cliff has won the 4-A title 4 straight years (including this year, but got taken one away for players being academically ineligible)

but anyways congrats again to him

Good Game Kansas.

I'm so very pissed right now but, I'll be a man about it and say that I've got alot of respect for you guys.

I truly feel that it came down to luck, our bad luck and your good luck.

Either way it was a GREAT game.

I'm gonna go and vomit now.

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!!!

Great game, this shows how important free throws are. When every I see D rose all I can think about is how nasty he is going to be in the NBA

Rose>Beasly
