Tournament Brings New Excitement

If you are a sports fan, this weekend was great. Three games of the NCAA men's basketball tournament went into overtime. All games made you sit on the edge of your seat because of all the excitement. The first game between Louisville and West Virginia was amazing. Louisville was down by 20 points in the second half and ended up coming back and winning in overtime. As in the Illinois and Arizona game, Illinois was down by 15 points with 4:00 minutes left and won in overtime. The Michigan State and Kentucky game was also a nail biter. Kentucky made a last second three pointer to send the game into overtime, which had to be reviewed by the refs to see if his foot was on the line.
This weekend was the first time in tournament history in which three of the four games of the regional finals went into overtime. If you had a chance to watch any of these games this weekend, do you think that this years tournament will be one talked about for many years?
