The 2008 Final Four is Set
The Final Four is set today with a Jay Hawks two point margin of victory as Davidson's three point shot failed to hit iron. Curry was forced to give up the ball after three different screens failed to clear any room for him to shoot. Teams throughout the tourament have refused to go to a box in one defense in attempt to coral Curry. When it mattered most Kansas came up with the critical stop against Curry and his Davidson team.
History was made as Kansas punched its ticket to the Final Four. Never before has four number one seeds in the expanded field of 64 made it to the Final Four. Memphis helped turn doubters into believers with their blow out over a Barnes coached Texas team. Those in the area recall Barnes in Clemson. So in two consecutive years, Texas has had some of the best talent whether it be with Durant or the current team and failed to advance to the Final Four.
Let's tip our hat to Bill Self who finally was able to take a team to the Final Four. Now a showdown between UNC and Roy Williams vs. his former team of Kansas. This match up may be better than the championship game to come.
