Crazy statistic: Villanova hasn't missed a shot all tournament.

If gambling were legal in California, I'd be wagering on Buddy and Oklahoma tonight and again on Monday night. #breakemoutbuddy

I still believe in Buddy! But thank god gambling isn't legal.

This is particularly awkward for Sixers CEO @ScottONeil, who is a Villanova grad. https://t.co/3HvoCYm5js

(P.S. The 'Nova-Sixers stuff is so dumb. Wouldn’t be close.)

Sixers plan for summer:
1. Fire Hinkie
2. Draft Villanova's whole starting five
3. Championship

A dominant victory in the postseason, this decade? That settles it- Nova is NOT a Philly team

Great first half for @NovaMBB...hope you guys can pull it off. #FinalFour

2005 and 2009 UNC beat us and went on to win the national championship...we owe them I hope they win.

Villanova just beat Oklahoma by 44 points. In the Final Four. Worst beating I've seen since the Barzini family whacked Sonny Corleone.

#Sixers coach Brett Brown ends his press conference with "Congratulations to coach Wright and #Villanova. See it's not all doom and gloom."
— Keith Pompey (@PompeyOnSixers) April 3, 2016

Never seen such a dominating performance in a Final Four game. Villanova was MAGNIFICENT.

Villanova's FG pct is its highest in ANY game the Wildcats have played over the last 20 seasons pic.twitter.com/6fTTjuscxC

Very happy Villanova won for @mikekerndn, who now has the potential for 6 more meals at Jack in the Box before leaving Houston.
— Jake Kaplan (@jakemkaplan) April 3, 2016

Villanova's guards are as tough as they come. So darn good.
— Kevin Negandhi (@KNegandhiESPN) April 3, 2016

If you had Villanova minus-39, your bookie is screwing you.
— Ray Ratto (@RattoCSN) April 2, 2016

I don't know y'all. Hate to punish Villanova for being great, but they are killing the men's game.
— Jessica Luther (@scATX) April 2, 2016

Youngsters..when your coach sez "be in helpside early"..Nova is giving you a clinic

With Nova bball and Clemson fball both making title games, it's been a big year for "shut the f--k up ab my team choking" postseason runs.
— Mike Rutherford (@CardChronicle) April 3, 2016

UNC turns Orange back into pumpkins. Heels just too big for that 2-3 zone. Give 'em slight edge over Nova, but will be very interesting.

Oklahoma hasn't breathed this poorly since the Dust Bowl. Give em a break, Nova.
— Brendan F. Quinn (@BFQuinn) April 2, 2016

That's a 67-point reversal from the first Oklahoma game.
— Reuben Frank (@RoobCSN) April 3, 2016

When Oklahoma scores, their fan section celebrates like 'The Little Giants' parents when they see their kids got a yard to make it 2nd & 9.
