Final Four is set, finalized with North Carolina choke job

Georgetown coach John Thompson III should send each North Carolina player a thank you card tonight for handing his team a trip to the Final Four for the first time since 1985. The Tarheels finished the game shooting a dismal 1 for 23 from the field in the last 15 minutes of the game.

We're pretty convinced that North Carolina A & T could have shot better than the Tarheels during that span. Hell, a few North Carolina high schools could have probably done better.

The officiating certainly didn't help the Tarheels in the overtime period either. Georgetown's monster center Roy Hibbert, who had four fouls going into the extra period, fouled out at least two times. Somehow the plays were seen as a jumpball and a clean block.

It didn't matter though, once the game went to OT, North Carolina had zero confidence or momentum. North Carolina can chalk themselves up on the list of chokers from this weekend which includes Texas A&M, Tennessee, and USC, all of which had their games all but won.

Georgetown 96, North Carolina 84
