is only now setting in for me. some crazy stats:

--we shot 58.2 percent from the field--highest in history. including 50 percent from 3.
--arch shot 71 from 2 and 62 from 3 for the tourney.
--we had the third hardest path to the championship, as measured by seeding
--we defeated 4---4!--top 10 teams in a row to finish it. and played a fifth--iowa that was ranked 3rd at one point in the season.
--we defeated the top 2 seeds in the tourney to win it.
--despite the competition, our average margin of victory was second all time--behind kentucky in 1996.

this was at the same time one of the most difficult challenges ever, and one of the most dominating performances against that competition. i cannot get my head around the magnitude of our accomplishment.
