Pretty sure the biggest choke job in sweet 16 history is worse than what we just watched.

If this makes you feel better about never being competitive, take comfort in the thought

Nah man, the 32-second banner is reserved for Pitino when he was at UL.

Lose a competitive game or lose a game you never had a chance in

It's like saying you'd rather just not make the final four than go to the final four and lose

Lol actually yes, watching a historic choke job was very entertaining.

He definitely enjoyed watching Cal lose more than watching his own team play in the sweet 16. SAD
