lucky!!???? They have been winning games like these for 3 years straight!!! the were down in the game against gonzaga by 17 points in the tourny 2 years ago and won . This year They were down to MSU, stanford, usc, cal, oregon by double digits in the first and some in the second half and won ALL of those games.

Its their style, not lucky. They tighten up the defense when the other team is tired in the second half and then they go for the kill
