One of the best?

just got through watching the epic, 6(probably never see that many again in my life especially not on ESPN) overtime, battle between Uconn and syracuse which 'cuse won 127-117, but something was missing. While the game was flat out awesome to watch with things like syracuse not leading in at all in 6 overtimes!! until the 6th overtime and a couple freshman and even a walk on players making key plays down the stretch(due to others fouling out) it just wasn't an instant top five game ever for me . It even had the semi-controversial buzzer beater in regulation that was recalled. The only thing it didn't have was a real buzzer beater to either a. win the game or b. send it to another overtime. Instead you just saw a bunch of very tired players playing on fumes and getting enough lucky bounces to win. The thing I truly think was missing(and the main reason I was basically rooting for 'cuse) was that I just didn't truly feel that Uconn wanted it more than anything in the world like I could tell 'cuse did, and that in itself is why I have so much trouble ever rooting for routinely good teams like Uconn. Its not that they don't care( you don't go 6 ots without some passion) but they just seemed like the loss was beneath them. Like they feel they should win every dame easy and because one wasn't they were more like "awwh man now I gotta work a little harder because this lesser team thinks they can hang with us. If we lose this it will make us look really bad." rather than the " Man this is one hell of a game! Both teams are equally deserving but I am never going to back down because I didn't work this hard just to go home to defeat." Its a bit long to the point but hopefully you get the idea.
