I dont really have a problem with it either, just think those court storming rules are funny
It is not nearly as much of a court storming violation as UNC storming for beating Duke, those rules are right, UNC, Duke, KU, UK etc should never storm, national champs or nothing

I don't really care about this kind of thing. It was a huge, exciting, ESPN-"televised" win against someone they've lost to five times in a row. And it clinches a share of the title -- which means a guaranteed NIT if nothing else. They should be thrilled.
On the other hand, I did NOT appreciate that dude from UCF running down the lane and dunking the ball -- up four with two seconds left and nobody around him. That was just a juvenile move to run up the score. Of course, UCF later got karmically-served when they had that inexplicably horrific losing streak soon afterward.
UCF has had an epic collapse, as bad as Villanova, probably worse since Nova will still get in the tourney

Technically they are Ivy co-champs no matter what.
Technically, schmenically. I don't care what the League thinks; you don't win the playoff, you're not the champions.

Curry penetrated at will and picked us apart. Casey got a ton of good looks and made them.
Here's an idea--when in man defense keep the ball out of Curry's hands. Make somebody else try to make a contested pass to him. He might get a couple of backdoors but it could throw their offense off.
I had a lousy feed also, but I fully agree that Curry was the difference. At Princeton he was visibly nervous, and had a bad game. This time he was fluid and showed good judgment. Sadly, he has two more years

More nice national exposure! They seem to be very high on SJ and his motivational gambit. Wilbon: "I don't like it...I LOVE it." "I know and like Tommy Amaker, but my money's on Princeton." Kornheiser: "A masterstroke."
That said, I'm not sure they know that Princeton needs to beat Penn first...

Kornheiser's is a Penn parent, so I'm sure he knows this. (Think his kid has graduated, though, hasn't he?)

Kornheiser starts off the clip by saying something like "could be a playoff." He never makes explicit mention of Penn/Princeton, but if that didn't exist, there'd be no "could" so it's clear that they know about it but are assuming that away.

It's Penn. No unhatched chicken-counting allowed. This IS a playoff game tonight.

Good points. Must have missed that.
