ahh I missed it, I turned that game off 10 minutes ago, it looked like VCU had it in the bag.

VCU is looking for trouble if it just keeps chucking 3's.

If VCU loses this game, it might overtake Pitt's loss to Butler for worst collapse in the final seconds of a 1st round game. They're up 4, shooting 2 foul shots, misses both and fouls a 3 pt. shooter who hits the FT to tie the game. Unbelievable

And I'm not sure I saw a foul. Great game. SFA shortest team in tournament, but seem to have a lot of desire, not to mention a few lucky bounces.

The evening games are a clinic in bad clock management. VCU burned 20+ seconds on both of their last two possessions drilling a hole in the floor with the ball.

It's the oldest rule in bball though. Up four and guy shooting a three, don't even come close to touching him.

Even if the guy totally flopped you can't lunge at a guy taking a three with a four point lead. You never know what the refs will call. Stay away from the freaking guy.
Just world class stupid.

I am utterly amazed at how some players are so oblivious to end of game situations. Why foul with the lead? Your up 4! You foul a guy shooting a 3?

VCU has an athleticism and height advantage on its opponent, and it spends the entire OT either looking for a 3 or taking bad ones. No one cut to the basket on the final drive.

Crazy. How the hell do you even go near the guy in that situation. How does the coaching staff not tell the players this OVER and OVER.

SFA won. VCU goes down on one of the dumbest plays in regulation. First of all, if you want to foul, foul before they shoot the 3. VCU deserve this loss. A10 is looking pretty bad so far.

Just saw the replay for the first time. IMO VCU got screwed, the guy shooting the three took a dive and the ref fell for it. Complete garbage.
