U.N.C. Takes NCAA Men's Title
So, North Carolina beat Michigan State in a rather boring NCAA Men's final. I really don't know what to think about this. On one hand, I'm happy that the best team went away with the title. On the other hand, I am extremely mad considering I was raised to despise U.N.C. and everything that goes with it, from the idea of having tar on your heels to the ugly blue color they wear (My dad is a North Carolina State alumni, so he's pretty much brainwashed me about what to think about Carolina). Anyway, the point is, the game was pretty boring, which, I am afraid is foreshadowing what the following years of college basketball will be like. Michigan State never had a chance to win the game after Carolina got a ten point lead about 5 minutes into the game. I really miss the time when you never knew who was going to win the tournament, because there were multiple good teams. A lot of the time, the final would go down to the last seconds of the game. Now, college basketball is very predictable. Every year, its either going to be U.N.C., Kansas, UCLA, Florida, ect. What happened to underdogs winning it all. I will continue to watch college basketball, but I really hope it gets a little better. (By the way, congrats to President Obama. He totally called that result of the tournament.)
