One and Done

Granted, I figured they'd need another year before they could truly contend, seeing as four of five starters are sophomores and freshman, but I didn't think it would be as absolute a pasting as it was.  Rick Pitino and the Louisville Cardinals put on a show in the first half and there was no turning back.

Lowlights of the season:  Getting crushed by Santa Clara at home and absolutely demolished by an Air Force.  Both teams that didn't make the tournament.

Highlights from this season:  Wins over Oregon, Washington State, and Virginia. 

Top two highlights:  Brook Lopez' unorthodox Block Party triple-double against USC and a 19-point comeback over then number-1 UCLA. 

Good times, next season should be great.
