Speaking as one of those random people who has no direct connection to the school, I was raised on the Sooners. My dad and uncle went there and all six of my siblings went there for at least part of their education. I think it's that way for a lot of fans. Either they're raised on it or are married into it. When you follow a team and go to games on a regular basis you start to care about them. It'd be weird if you didn't.

Will be rooting for Oklahoma the rest of the way. Have some Dust Bowl roots from my mother's side of the family and they're a joy to watch.

Villanova definitely looks like the better team early.

Oklahoma working their asses off on the boards to get back in this game. Pretty amazing effort in these first few minutes. At some point, Buddy will get going again.

Lame. Tournament has pretty much sucked since the first week. Expecting another blowout later.

Oklahoma visibly quit after that deep inbound to the other side of the court with the and-1. All of Oklahoma collectively quit and you could see it.

If Monster was one of the random, overly emotional folks, only then would it be in bad taste. But yeah, they got their asses kicked. Giving up when it got tough made them look much worse.

Is UNC known for being a great passing team? They're showing it tonight. There were like 11 passes in 10 seconds that set up an easy wide open jumper.

Just a great offense. Run half court sets just as well as they run the court in transition, which is better than anyone in the country. Stacked with talent.

How about that little tip pass from out of the trap by Paige to Meeks for the slam? Beautiful.

I know that his grandpa, who raised him, was a former Wildcat and was best friends with Ellis T Johnson (former Wildcat star and legendary Morehead State coach). They were best men at each other's wedding and Ellis dedicated his biography to him. They bleed Kentucky blue.

LMAO I've never seen OU play so poorly. Depressing to think I'll never go to the LNC to watch Buddy Hield shoot the lights out again. It was fun watching him progress over the years.
