Even so, the game was still at issue when, with just under five minutes to go and UCLA up 55-50, Bruin guard Darren Collison hit a fallaway 25-foot three-pointer over two defenders as the shot clock was about to expire. A miss, and the shift in momentum could easily have changed the outcome. At that point, the game was over.
My seatmates and I originally didn’t have a rooting interest--none of us had connections to either school—but the incessant, even obnoxious cheering [U! – C! – L! – A !] made the no. 1 seed Jayhawks seem like the underdog. The Bruins won’t enjoy such a “home court” advantage next week in Atlanta, so they should savor this moment of triumph. © 2007 Stephen Yuen
