I got there the next year (well assuming you meant 96) and I guess they had learned...they basically blocked off a section around woodland and euclid and said "party on"...You should have been down on Woodland and Euclid in 95. No cops! People were running around nude everywhere. No ####As a UK student from 97-00 (1 national championship and another trip to the final game), I've been in that situation. IMO the police officers are the ones that have to take it easy. The Lexington cops did a great job of allowing the parties and dealing with the knuckleheads quietly and respectfully. Drunken, celebrating college kids are going to do dumb stuff, but you don't have to be confrontational about it.I am a die hard UCONN football fan, but don't care about college basketball (go figure). They had a great picture in the courant of a bunch of students at UCONN staring down a state police officer. president Herbst sent out a statement encouraging students to take it easy.Just a matter of what team you root for I guess... My facebook/twitter feed was full of fellow UConn fans complaining about the refs.Wait, you think UCONN got more calls? Oof.I can see how you can say that, though, UCONN only beat Florida twice this year.Absolute nightmare of a group of refs for florida. Call nothing down low. Call everything aggressive up top. I can honestly say uconn is not a better team. Better backyard players sure. Better team? No one can convince me
Wish I was back at Storrs for tonight. It is going to be absolute mayhem.
- Well UConn just crushed a ton of brackets so a bunch of casual fans just lost interestYep, not sure why UCONN making the final is a ratings killer. Arguably the most successful college basketball program of the last 15 years.huh? Uconn basketball has more of a national following than floridaImagine the National ratings or lack thereof Monday if it's UConn - Wisc
Kentucky-UCONN would do just fine. And Wisconsin wouldn't be horrible either.
team who scores more points usually wins the gameamazing how much basketball is determined by the simple factor of who makes shots...
lmao at brackets. Its the final four, 98% brackets were busted last week- Well UConn just crushed a ton of brackets so a bunch of casual fans just lost interestYep, not sure why UCONN making the final is a ratings killer.

- a 1 seed with a winning streak vs an upstart is a better story
Yeah KY-UConn would do fine. That's not what I said. Nor did I say UF had a better national following
But UConn can't play the Cinderella card against a WISC team that finally gets to the champ game.
Right, so #### the 90% of brackets that survived that still had Florida winning.lmao at brackets.

All Wildcats tonight... Domination!
Offensive charging? Oof!UK keeps attacking the lane like that and Wisconsin won't have enough players to finish...
no way that was a charge...no-call maybeOffensive charging? Oof!UK keeps attacking the lane like that and Wisconsin won't have enough players to finish...
Slo-mo replay looked really bad, but the sideline report was encouraging.ruh-roh
I'd be okay with a no-call. Quick whistles on Kentucky lately too. #24 holding the fort well for Jackson's absence.no way that was a charge...no-call maybeOffensive charging? Oof!UK keeps attacking the lane like that and Wisconsin won't have enough players to finish...
Bunch of coaches on the floor out there.I feel like I am watching Hoosiers...
It could be worse. We could have had Billy Packer calling Johnson a thug and pleading for him to be ejected.Hey Greg... one guy is making a play on the ball... the other one pushed a guy in the face. HTH
I agree, Wisconsin getting jobbed by the refs here tonight.What a bunch of bull####
Doesn't matter, the rule is you can't hit a player in the face. A Technical was called, not a Flagrant Foul.Is Vlade Divac a special assistant at Wisconsin?
