That wasn't a foul at the end despite what Vitale and other idiot announcer would have you believe. Moretti's sole purpose was to draw a foul there and he did a pretty bad job of it (as Garrett jumped to the side of him).
Add another win to the total but no injuries is key. [Reply]
Shut the fuck up, Vitale and Bob! That was a flop. Garretts hip barely brushed him. And how you gonna call that when they have been allowing physical play all day long? I can't stand Vitale anymore [Reply]

Especially with the 1-and-done’s.
In order to have enough talent to do it, you need high level recruits...but most of those leave after a year. A bunch of talented freshmen is bound to have at least a few down games over 18. So yeah, probably won’t see the perfect storm like this again. Typically, 15-3 guarantees at least a share.
2002 probably could have done it. That team was loaded. Talent and depth at every position. [Reply]
