I actually watched Indiana celebrate and was in some bizarre way happy for them. It ****ed me up really. I’m certainly not getting more mature or growing up. They showed big balls in that game and made the plays when they needed to. Sure we can blame O’Connor and Bauman and Beck, but that’s not how I felt personallyThis is actually the first NC game loss that I have gotten over almost immediately. We just got out executed by a better team. Did we have the better players. Yes but it came down to a final drive and they beat us on execution. In 85, 86, 92, 02 I never felt right. Maybe 85 and 92 not as much because we got dragged, but the other years those losses haunted me for years. I can sleep at night and feel like the school and program actually cares again and we are well built for the future.
This playoff run was my favorite sports memory even though we didn’t close the deal
