Well said, and thank you NavySportsFreak
I watched the game with some buddies in DC, folks who rooted for a bunch of different teams, but everyone was going crazy for American -- really a first for us. At the under 4 timeout, with the game very much in doubt, I looked at my buddy and said "I deeply want us to win this game, but don't let me forget that as of this moment, I'm happy. We're not getting blown out. They're putting up the 2 vs 15 seed graphics. Our boys are outhustling their boys. Markets all over the US are switching to the American game. Everything else is house money."
It took a couple of late 3's by a horrible outside shooter (Chism) for Tennessee to put American away. Amazing to even think about.
Looking forward to next year as well -- maybe Bucknell doesn't hit that miracle shot next time around...
