Late to the party on this analogy, but the game reminded me of the 2006 tourney game against LSU when they beat the hell out of JJ. I've been lamenting for years the state of college bball. It's just too physical and with the # of refs across the country, too inconsistent. The NBA product is sooooo much better to watch, even though I prefer the idea of college bball so much more because of the team concept and, frankly, because the players aren't as good so they miss more shots. Unfortunately, the NCAA has bigger problems and doesn't have the leadership to address this.
