I'd be surprised if the tournament gets any better after this game. Arizona, up until losing to Washington twice, was a lock for a number one seed in the tourney. I give Illinois credit; they survived probably the toughest regional.

Anytime a team is in control and all of a sudden forgets how to play basketball counts as choking in my book. Sure Illinois put a lot of pressure, but Arizona become very tentative in the last four minutes, basically trying to run off the clock instead of continuing to go inside to Frye.
