Final: Florida 88, #9 West Virginia 71.

"Reptiles" is a bit vague, but that just motivates me to look harder.

I was gonna guess Horned Toads, but that makes sense.

He could have said swamp people and been really obtuse.

What the heck is that all about?

Thanks to the good Dr and brev for the additional hints/scores/explanations.

Roy must be seeing red at the current score in the game. I think there are some little birdies flying around his head.

Phew.

Heels got their (Taco) Bell rung.

In Roy's defense, lately it has been difficult for him to determine what day it is.

That was a slugfest. I enjoyed the game, just not the outcome.

Two strong teams probing and testing each other with the ball against good defense.

Louisville made mistakes, but they also made plays. Winning plays. They finished shots and the contested possession plays. Nobody gave them anything, they took that win at home.

UNC really struggled with Lee's strength and athleticism. That kid is a player.

The Heels didn't finish at the rim enough, lots of shots rimmed out, and they made some untimely...mainly mental... mistakes. Both defensively and with passing the ball.

They just have to play better to expect to win a game like that on the road.

There's still clearly some confidence issues shooting and scoring the ball for UNC. The rim seemed awful tight again tonight for them. I do think it got better than the past few games so hopefully they get out of that funk soon.

I also like how Roy coached this game. He was tactical with the bench and had them in position to win all night against a good team on the road. Players gotta make plays at some point.

On to the next one...

Absolutely: he held on to his last timeout so he'd have 2 Timeouts in overtime. Great strategy, too bad his players failed him again.

as an FYI, the game is being discussed in this weeks "Weekly ACC Thread" if anyone is interested in joining the celebration there.

thanks

Funny the refs had to remind roy there was 2.5 seconds remaining on the the game clock before halftime after Louisville turned it over on a shot clock violation, while roy was walking his team off the court.

i'd like to volunteer my cat-cleaning services...
