2009 Big East Tournament

[beaner]

Are you *bleep*ing serious?

This will officially be the longest game this season.

I love Basketball.

A fifth OT. I've heard/seen this in Hockey on rare occasion, but I don't ever recall something like this happening in basketball. This is absolutely unreal.

I'm sure they'll run a graphic real soon telling the last time it happened. I'm curious.

I love College Basketball.

Fixed that for ya.

Seriously though, if you like the NBA too, more power to you. I can't stand it in comparison--and it's not just because i'm a Wizards fan.

College Basketball is just soooooo much better, IMO. Not even close.

Good call! Rep to you. I hope this game goes all night. The Heels play at noon. I'll just sit here and not move.

How long before this game is full of scrubs?

Anyone still watching? We're in OT #5 now.

EDIT: Oops, I see plenty are still watching. I was reading the next to last page of the thread and thought it was the last page!

This is the longest Big East game, ever.

The most overtimes a Division I college basketball game has ever totaled is seven, when Cincinnati outlasted Bradley in 1981.

Two to go! :rofl:

Amazing that Cuse hasn't led in any of the OTs yet.

You have to wonder how this game will effect whoever wins today...and not just tomorrow either.

It would almost be better to lose at this point.

Good find, well done.

It looks like both teams have run out of gas. Devendorf fouling out for 'Cuse is awful for them, but we thought that about Thabeet for UConn as well.

2:01 in the fifth OT ('Cuse brought in their first: Thomas)

[Floater]

What if a team has less than 5 players left? Forfeit?

[The Rick]

Flynn has put this team on his back, you have the feeling that if 'Cuse prevails, it will be Flynn who makes the big shot.

[The Rick]

Six? LOL, I should stop acting surprised.

But I swear, I am.

[Sports Guy]

6 OTs?

This is freaking unreal!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to go to bed but no way I can until this game is over.

This may officially be the greatest sporting event I have ever watched live.

We're entering "College Football's goofy-frickin' overtime rules" territory, here.
