KCScout76 Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 I believe the last and only time Both the Men's & Women's teams won the BB championships was in 1986, CMSU (Central Missouri State Univ. - Warrensburg, MO - Home of the Mules & Jennies).

See Red Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Yup. The National Champions suck alright! Sounds like something a Duke fan would say. Do I sense someone's bitter about not being able to close out a game they had won?Was there ANY point in the game in which Georgia Tech looked like they belonged on the same court as UConn? That was as dominant a performance in a championship game as there has been.And I don't believe in D-1... the Men's and Women's titles have ever been won by the same team. hell, in D-1... no team that's had a team in BOTH brackets have EVER won a championship in that year. So UConn already made history right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshawaggie Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 UConn I have followed them for over 10 years, so don't go thinkin I'm a bandwagoneer, I'd rather be dead than be on a bandwagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See Red Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Same here. Born and raised in Bridgeport, CT until age 7. My earliest sports memories were UConn basketball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshawaggie Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 I was randomly watchin CBS one day when i was a youngin, didn't know who was playin, and since i didnt have cable at the time, there was nothin else on, and for some reason I just reall liked the UConn name, colors and all that stuff and just started following them. Actually I think I was curious to watch cuz I had never heard 'UConn' before, so I wanted to know who was playing, I definitely wasn't thinkin Connecticut, so i felt pretty dumb when I found out when they posted scores to cut to commercial. DOH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick 1733 Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Well I'm glad they won, even though the three teams I wanted to win went out before.First I wanted Air Force to win, like that was possible.Then I wanted Syracuse to win, too bad the got knocked out.Then I wanted either Okie State or UConn to win, more so Okie State because of what happened last year out here, the plane crash.But hey #4 on a list of 4 isnt bad.

The women's game, which I also watched, was a really exciting game. And seeing Diana Taurasi play with that skill and enthusiasm, I don't know why people have these preconceived notions that women's basketball can't be a fun sport to watch.

paynomind Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 Was there ANY point in the game in which Georgia Tech looked like they belonged on the same court as UConn? That was as dominant a performance in a championship game as there has been. F you, jacka$$... it was a complete blowout? Single digit point margins count as a blowout?Yes, Tech was down 26 at one point, but then, they rallyed back to within 7. I think THAT period of time qualified them as belonging on the same court. Look, Uconn won. Agreed. They are the National Champions. Hooray. Tech did not play their best game, and lost to the better team that night. But don't give me any self-serving bullplop that Tech didn't belong to be there. Uconn ran out to a ten point lead on the strength of a flat Tech team, cadly missed shots by Tech, and two horrible calls on two legit blocks by Tech on Defense. Ten points in the first couple minutes. The game ended by UConn winning by 9. That means, has ONE of Techs shots gone in, or ONE of those blocks been not called, this is a whole new game.This was closer than the score just after the half made it appear. And if, as everyone whines about, had this been a series, Tech may only take 2 of 5 games. Or 4 of 9. But they were a team very capable of beating anyone else in the game on any given night.Monday wasn't that night. They looked slow and sloppy, and their shooters weren't on. Kind of how Uconn played in November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paynomind Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 That was as dominant a performance in a championship game as there has been. How about - no, completely wrong.Your team won a 9 point victory. Lets see how 'dominating' that is.2002 Maryland 64-52 Indiana 14 point victory2001 Duke 82-72 Arizona 10 point victory2000 Michigan St. 89-76 Florida 13 point victory1998 Kentucky 78-69 Utah 9 points1996 Kentucky 76-67 Syracuse 9 points1995 UCLA 89-78 Arkansas 9 pointsSo... id say that it was MORE cometitive than most int he past 4 years, and equal to or better than the past ten!So, stuff it. Your team won. Your team is National Champions. Crongrats.But don't insult other people's teams. NO one in the final four deserves that kind of talk. They were all great teams this year.
