FT % is what it is. It is a direct reflection of what you have done the entire season. UConn hit 101 of 115 free throws during the tournament.

They were fourth in the nation in free throw percentage during this season at 77.7 %. For the season UK percentage was 68.2. UK shot 81% against Louisville in the sweet 16....you could use the same argument. Bottom line is, UConn won, just like UK beat Louisville. Shoulda, woulda, coulda doesn't count for much in the tournament.
