so a quick contest. Who said "This game is OVAH!"

Most excellent! I just watched the game and it's amazing how good we were in 2008. I had completely forgotten what a terrific game Cole Aldrich played that day. Watching Roy's despair was so much ...............well, I enjoyed it.

i periodically re-watch that game and ALWAYS enjoy it. It was a fantastic game and extra sweet since it was UNC.

As that game wound down, I couldn't resist:

I couldn't hold off until the following Monday. For so many reasons, that FF game deserved to have a cork popped. And my, did it (and the victory) taste so sweet...

PS: I kept that bottle as a memento...it's with all my other KU memorabilia on the "shrine" near the big-screen TV.

“With kindest regards to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, the father of basketball coaching, from the father of the game.”

Me too. The first half was a thing of beauty - big Cole swatting Tyler Hansbrough's shots (POY my a**). The UNC fans around us were in disbelief. Letting the lead slip to 4 in the 2nd half was scary, but soon expanded it. For me, a much more enjoyable game than the NC, since it looked like KU was doomed.
