Good morning, ladies and gentlemen of the Big Blue Nation, and welcome to the Tuesday Quickies.
I haven’t had anything to say about the game Sunday — still in mourning, I suppose — but I will say that it was a good effort that just fell short. Getting beat at the buzzer hurts every team it happens to, and we’ve beaten a few teams that way ourselves; remember the North Carolina game back in the Anthony Davis era when he blocked the game-winner, or the Ohio State win when Brandon Knight was with us?
It’s tough when you lose that way, but that’s what makes the NCAA Tournament so dramatic and so popular.
