Best NCAAB championship game in a long time

At least Kansas avenged the Bruins tonight. But seriously, no matter what team you support, if you are a fan of March Madness you could not have asked for a better game than tonight's. Unlike the previous two year's championship games, both Memphis and Kansas seemed pretty evenly matched throughout the entire game. You just could not tell who would win. The backcourt and frontcourt on both sides were awesome, defense was great on both sides, and I lost count of the number of lead changes. And wow, how about the Kansas comeback near the end of regulation - down by 9 pts, the Jayhawks fouled + forced the pressure free throws, clawed their way back and finally Chalmers' clutch 3 to sent the game into OT! They don't call it March Madness for nothing! It's mind boggling how the game came down to Memphis' missed free throws. I use to think fouling and forcing your opponent to go to the line was an act of desperation & futility. But apparently it does work!
