NCAA Tournament Day 2 Thread

Even if it was a foul there it would have been number 6 with about 1 - 2 seconds of play. That game was not a hose job. If anything the go ahead basket should have been an and 1 and Ndaiye should have picked up his fifth,

I'm talking about the foul in the corner against UC Irvine. I think we're on different pages.

Clearing out the non-majors pretty efficiently. I would not be surprised if we are down to 6 conferences left in the dance by Sunday.

he was tackled, not fouled

Thought so as well from the live game camera. But one of the other cameras showed on replay it was all ball and the UCI kid's reaction made it look like a tackle. Moot point as I said earlier. Time was pretty much expired by that foul which was only six. A heady player like Napier would have baited the kid to foul him and taken a 3 pt shot as he was getting hit.

UCI just got royal screwed at end of the game with that no call. What's going on with these refs favoring some of the P5 schools?

UC Irvine was screwed by their coach. That's the play he came up with at the 42 second mark. Dribble outside and take a 30 footer. No in-bounds play at the end to attack the basket.

Stand corrected. That was definitely a foul. A stupid one that cost them the game.

Pretty remarkable that a team who plays the style of defense Louisville does had two fouls to give in the final eight seconds.

Some of guys are just miserable people. You act like tbese refs are being paid off to make bad calls, not buying it. If the games are fixed then why watch? These teams have put themselves into positions for refs to make calls. These are debatable calls here. I will agree SMU's call was really bad, but even they had 2 good shots to win.

The fact they threw it in the backcourt with 5.7 seconds left and knowing Louisville is going to foul again amazed me. People were coming to the ball and open around the foul line, throw it to them.

That is a foul on Rozier, can't go for a steal with your right arm when he's dribbling lefty without hitting body. Thing is the coach blew it not the call.

Disappointing day for the underdogs so far. Sucks.

 

[Scoe]

Im prepared for another tease here.

 

[BUHusky]

Wait what. How do the refs see those replays and give Maryland the ball?!?

 

[Scoe]

Is this another mid major that will their pants in a end of game situation.

It's pretty obvious. One is in with the cool kids and the other isn't.

I don't like Valpo's strategy here. Down 3 with the ball with 30 seconds. Get 2 and then foul. Don't hold for one and go for the tie. Give yourself as many opportunities as possible IMO.

EDIT: Didn't even get a shot off. Bad coaching.

Awful coaching to not even get a shot off after getting the ball with 30 secs left!

 

[Scoe]

I hate Northeastern, Harvard, UC Irvine, Buffalo and Valpo.

 

[BUHusky]

How many times is a team not going to even getting a shot off at the end?!? Awful.

 

[Scoe]

I hate Northeastern, Harvard, UC Irvine, Buffalo and Valpo.

and I hate LSU

$hitting there pants .

 

[Scoe]

spot on

I was prepared for it and I know the same thing will happen later on tonight I just know it.

 

[champs99and04]

That was a complete coaching debacle for Valpo there. Maryland has their two starting big men out of the game...attack the rim.

 

[whaler11]

The team I wanted to win didn't win. Refs!

 

[Scoe]

I gotta take a break from these games I'm gonna watch college wrestling.

Scott Drew went full Scott Drew and sent in a scrub at the end of the half to intentionally foul Oregon. Only problem? He miscounted the fouls and ended up sending a 92% shoooter to the line 50 ft. away from the cup, with 2 seconds on the clock.
