Yeah, it's happened in Division 2 and 3 by Central Miss, and North somebody. |

I believe they said it DID happen once... but in Division II.  Still an impressive feat no matter at what level it's achieved, though. |

Threepeat? I think just Tennessee. Men and women winning the same season? Nope. Closest was Duke in 1999, but they both lost (men did the jay-oh-bee to UConn, incidentally...). |

Has that been done before? I don't recall it happening. |

Yeah but I have no problem with the UConn girls - that program is a freaking dynasty. 
Tennessee has a really good program too but come on - UConn should have no problems recruiting.  |

Yeah, don't forget that they had the same margin of victory: nine points.

Well, it's a sweep for UConn, not only did the mens team get a 2 seed, and win the national title, but the ladies team got a two seed, and won the female national title, over Tennessee, 70-61.

That usually happens in blowouts though. One team's winning by 20 or so and they ease up - final margin is 9 or 10 but the result was never in doubt. |

And you know it was a blowout, when they talked to Ray Allen and Rip Hamilton. (might be radio only) |

Heh... you gotta love how in the game, the announcers said it was a shame that it was such a great tournament, but the title game would suck so badly. |

I'm dissapointed, i thought it might be a little closer than that. GT tried to make it close at the end, but it was never in doubt. |

They rolled them pretty easily. I thought it would have been a little closer than that. |

1. Allen Iverson is one of the most selfish players in the NBA. Just look at how many shots per game he takes. He may SEEM magical... but really, he just shoots so much that he gets to score every once in while... meaning he gets 20+ pt. per game. You won't be seeing a Philly championship anytime soon because of Iverson.
2. You do realize Houston has Steve Francis, right? 
1. When they went to the finals, he was mildly better, and now he does pass more.
2. Yeah, I do...they were sub 500 I believe before Yao, then they're playoff contenders. |

Slight caveat to the question: Last time, Okafor was supergimpy, and Rashad Anderson, Boone, Villanueva, etc. hadn't emerged. Then again, neither did Schenscher...
But still. Georgia Tech or UConn? DUH. Huskies go two for two. |

Georgia Tech, only for the sole reason that UConn killed my bracket. |

So does guard play
It will be a tight game... especially if Okafor gets in foul trouble at all... |
