Chuckster making a good point; UVA screwed up by almost letting one player beat them.
 

To be fair, I agreed with Clark Kellogg that UVA threw some double teams at Edwards and I thought hedged him pretty tight. Edwards was just unconscious.

And no other player for PU scores more than 7 points. Yikes!

Edwards had some incredible games in the tournament and Cline had one himself against Tennessee.  He nearly (and if Cline hits his last free throw, would have) defeated Virginia without much help.

Funniest line of the day though was late in regulation when Chris Webber said that Edwards was "carrying them offensively and getting other people involved too".

Ummmmmm.....he had zero assists.  I'm not criticizing him for that because he was flat out nasty on offense, but who exactly did he get invovled?

It is Chris Webber. He’s an idiot.

In his four tournament games, Carson had 23, 21, 22, and 25 shots with the 25 coming in overtime.  It's not like teams before Virginia had figured out how to limit his touches.  And they did do something the other teams didn't......for the most part, they kept him off the line and prevented their own foul trouble.

Remember when people on this site said that Purdue wasn’t good and Carson Edwards wasn’t deserving of B1G POY? Yeah.

Go back and rewatch the IU game, either of the Minnesota games, the Northwestern game, the Nebraska game, the FSU game, and about a half dozen others. Edwards is dynamic. He’s also a remorseless gunner who has shot them out of as many games as he’s won them. He was not B1G POY.

He did NOT shoot them out of as many games as he's won them....period.

People were saying this preseason. Agreed that he shot them out of games during the season.

This kid just had an insane tournament. I think our fan base really did not take Purdue and Edwards seriously all year, and we almost just had to witness him carry the squad to a Final Four.
