Missed it by that much!

Really? Larry Davis takes the final shot from 38 feet away? That was your grand plan? I honestly missed photographing it because I was looking away, trying to figure out who he was going to pass to. I mean, really, Larry Davis? For the final shot? Really?

But ok, this was just a great game on both sides. Unfortunately, UC just came up on the short end of the stick. Pitt's got a heck of a team this year. UC's definitely a team on the rise, but the Big East is a tough conference. Should be an interesting season ahead.
