Simply unreal. Huge props to those kids...what a terrific memory this will provide them for the rest of their lives.

Now onto the selection show where some hearts are going to get broken because of the Georgia win...Az St and St Marys are likely victims.
And there are those heads out there who think that things like that are bad for college basketball. They believe the automatic bid for tournament champions 'dilutes the field' in the tournament.

Complete and utter morons.
