Congratulations to both very fine teams!
However, frankly, it's a pretty silly tournament format that creates winners' and losers' brackets and rewards the winner of the last game; despite the fact that the two teams tied in head-to-head competition.

It's because these games have to be played Saturday and Sunday on ABC. Pushing the championship out to Monday is worthless to ABC. The format was also the same in regions for tv reasons. The games had to be on ESPN on Saturday.
