West Virginia 73, Kentucky 66
That's unexpected. Not that I mind. WVU won three low score squeakers in the Big East Tournament, & I didn't think it was the kind of play that would get them past Kentucky to the Final Four, especially after they lost Darryl Bryant last week. Syracuse was my choice to win it all before Onuaku's injury. Then I probably would've picked Kentucky.
Number of West Virginians on the WVU roster: One.
Big East took a beating this year. But it doesn't mean the conference is overrated. All the BE teams that made the NCAA deserved to be there, & three more lurked around the bubble until late in the season. That's the strongest conference. Big East teams are overrated compared to the top two teams from midmajors. But put Notre Dame or Marquette in the West Coast, they'd go no worse than 11-3 in conference play.

As you know, I was there. It was clear that Kentucky did not have their game on and W. VA. did have theirs.
