[Oskee] wow

[Todd Sweet]

Mike,

The game is still up at espn360.com if you want to watch the second half.
Check in the replay section.  I've had pretty good luck with the streaming
there.  That way you won't have to worry about sitting through those 4000
losses. :-)

Not only that, it was the 8th-biggest second-half comeback in
NCAA history.

I have to confess I stopped watching at halftime. I of course am sad I
missed it, but with that big a comeback my father computed that I
would have to go through 3,999 losing games before I again saw a
comeback as big. I am not sure I can take those kind of odds...8-)

Rationalizations, I know. I won't turn it off again, I swear!
