It just shows you the importance of defense. They could not hit shots--the shots they hit were 5 feet beyond the 3 point line. Uconn just had too much length and speed. Kemba was real,hurt last night and he wasnt healthy for the game against Kentucky yet still managed to do what was necessary. Jeremy Lamb is going to be a star type player. I expect this team with the addition of Ryan Boatright(wait until u see this kid) and possibly Andre Drummond to me more than set to get a chance to repeat. Its a very tough team--we lose Kemba which is enormous but all of those yo9ung freshmen will be better and we add possible 3 guys 6-10++ and a guard who resemble s Kemba in many ways.
You obviously have not watched much of FSU playing. I am used to these ugly arse games ;-) It was a defensive gem but becuase there wasn't much offense as a 'showtime spectacle' it will be regarded a failure to live up to the hype.
@ FSU you don't defend you sit. Simple as that.
