Baylor up 21 on Houston

Houston didn’t play anyone all year and played a double digit seed all the way to the Final Four. We would’ve waxed Houston

And they got a 2 seed for that trash of a schedule.

I read earlier today that Arkansas actually outscored Baylor the last 36 minutes of the Elite 8 game.

Those first 4 minutes are the difference in playing in a national championship game and going home in the Elite 8. That shite has got to keep muss up at night.

Here are the stats from the Baylor game.

Yep. Crazy to think how close we came. Mu$$ was the right guy to right this ship.

Notae had 14 points but played only 15 minutes. That is pretty good and I believe had he not fouled out, that game would come down to the last 60 seconds. He could have gotten on a hot streak.

Also Baylor had 3-4 players that were in foul trouble. But the game wasn't close enough that it didn't become a factor. But it could have been a problem for Baylor if we tied it up and sent it to OT.

I was rooting for UCLA to pull the upset but ultimately I’m relieved that they didn’t. I would have been sick knowing that we would have had a legitimate shot of winning the title if we had gotten by Baylor.

It sucked but I know we’ll be back with Muss here. And Baylor is elite of the elite, not like we lost to an inferior team

As great as they are, there was a 10 minute period in the second half where they did absolutely nothing and the door was wide open for Arkansas to take control of the game. Houston couldn’t even create that window of opportunity. Gonzaga can and they’ll make Baylor pay for it.
