Old Men podcast: Houston beats Duke but falls in national title game

Welcome to Episode #51 of the No Conference for Old Men Podcast.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times” as the Houston Cougars ended the season 35-5. After an epic comeback win to beat Duke 70-67 in the semis (inflicting a bit of revenge for last season), it all came crashing down in a last-minute 65-63 loss to Florida in the championship game, where UH led by 12 early in the second half.

We were all hoping for a deserving “storybook” ending that would result in our 1st National Championship, but this is the beauty & cruelty of sport. It cannot be scripted like a movie. So the three old men summarize the two final games in a historic season for our Cougars. And then look forward to what could be another Championship run next season, with 3 5-star freshmen joining the team to pair with Emanuel Sharp & JoJo Tugler.

Please have a listen as the 3 Old Men summarize the wonderful season & look forward to next year.
