That's how the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament ended last night as the Huskies of the University of Connecticut beat the Bulldogs of Butler University 53-41 to win the national championship.
And thus March Madness gives way to April Blandness as the tournament's two top teams can't score 95 points together and wind up collegiate basketball's 2010-2011 season with a score that would embarrass a lot of high school teams. Yippee! Yes, I can see why college football needs a playoff system instead of the current Bowl Championship Series mess or the old subjective voting polls method. Without a playoff, we'll never have the excitement of two of the best teams in the country playing for all the marbles! We'd never be able to see the top levels of talent square off against each other and display the game at its peak, as it's meant to be played!
Although to match this kind of finish, we'd probably need to have a couple of teams in the bottom half of the top 10 fight each other all game long only for the team that wound up with a field goal and a safety to beat the team that had just a field goal...
