2014 OFFICIAL NCAA Tournament Thread: Connecticut wins the title - Page 19

ColtCrazy · 03-29-2014, 11:03 PM

Tough call to make there. Probably gets away with it if he doesn't extend his arm.

mauchow · 03-29-2014, 11:04 PM

just rollee my ankle doing a jumping pump fist..

Galaril · 03-29-2014, 11:04 PM

wow Az got bonned by the refs.

Glengoyne · 03-29-2014, 11:04 PM

I missed that earlier. Did they call the flagrant on Wisconsin?

sterlingice · 03-29-2014, 11:05 PM

I think that's out on Arizona

No, but it looked like he wasn't hit with the elbow to me. Looks like he was underneath the arm and kindof took a dive.

EagleFan · 03-29-2014, 11:05 PM

I see nothing on those replays to overturn (but that probably means they will based on how the replays have gone in the tournament).

ColtCrazy · 03-29-2014, 11:05 PM

Looks like Badger ball. I'd throw long here, 2.3 seconds. Don't run the risk of giving it back right under their basket.

Marmel · 03-29-2014, 11:06 PM

Wiscy got away with an elbow and a bogus charge call on AZ. Bad ending to a great game.

The charge was a load of crap. I think the elbow was a good call

Marmel · 03-29-2014, 11:07 PM

This last slow mo sure looks like it is off W.

ColtCrazy · 03-29-2014, 11:08 PM

Impossible to tell really. It's so close.

Marmel · 03-29-2014, 11:08 PM

I thought off AZ all the way, but that one angle makes me wonder.

A no-call on the charge would have been better no doubt..

I just read the lips of the ref saying he thinks the ball went off WI

ColtCrazy · 03-29-2014, 11:08 PM

If there's this much indecision it can't get overturned…which means it will.

HerRealName · 03-29-2014, 11:09 PM

I can't believe there's no camera on that side of the court.

EagleFan · 03-29-2014, 11:09 PM

WTF? There is no way that they can overturn off that replay.

Marmel · 03-29-2014, 11:10 PM

Take all day whydontcha! Gratz Wiscy fans

ColtCrazy · 03-29-2014, 11:10 PM

YES! Congrats mauchow! What a game. Well done Wisconsin!

I'm not saying it was a foul on either- I think it was a no call.

But it doesn't matter now.

Hope you enjoy the next week, mauchow! There's something really awesome about the week before the Final Four when your team is going.

SI

mauchow · 03-29-2014, 11:12 PM

Bo Deserves the final four! I'm so happy for him right now...

sterlingice · 03-29-2014, 11:13 PM

I feel good for Bo Ryan. I know I hope one of the Big Ten schools win and Wisconsin would be cool by me.

SI

Buccaneer · 03-29-2014, 11:13 PM

Watched the last part of the game with my son (he's ecstatic Badgers won). First time I've seen them and I was very impressed by their C.

Im not happy for Bo Ryan. Congrats to Wiscy. Exciting times.
I am happy for my bracket. I have 2 of the 4 final 4 teams in so far.

Marmel · 03-29-2014, 11:16 PM

Easy to root for Wisconsin.

If Kentucky and Uconn could lose tomorrow this would be an almost perfect final 4 (outside of Cuse being home). No problem rooting for any of the other teams.

Enjoy the moment. I have to live vicariously through the other Big Ten teams right now.

Would love a Sparty-Wiscy final.

Matthean · 03-29-2014, 11:19 PM

Wisconsin/Michigan would be fun, but I fear UK is Michigan's end. I would love to be proven wrong. It just seems so difficult to get three from the same conference into the Final Four, and MSU has a vastly easier road tomorrow. Michigan has more experience, but really, that says more about the youth of UK than anything.

sterlingice · 03-29-2014, 11:20 PM

Silly commentary in the studio- I think it was ok to take that long to get it right and I think they got it right.

I"ll say plausible, but way too sketchy to over turn the call on the court.

tarcone · 03-29-2014, 11:27 PM

Maybe it was a make up for the charge call earlier?

mauchow · 03-29-2014, 11:32 PM

my fuckin' foot seriously hurts right now. thank god for the booze settled in a while ago

edit: dunno if i already said it here but I did a jumping pump fist and fell into the bathroom.. feel a hurt in my foot... lovely

mauchow · 03-29-2014, 11:52 PM

My Wisconsin over MSU bracket is at the 100% percentile now on ESPN. Cool.

lungs · 03-29-2014, 11:54 PM

Woooooooooooooooo!

mauchow · 03-29-2014, 11:55 PM

Remember the Duke/Cuse finish?

Tony Greene called Nick Johnson for a charge with three seconds left in overtime. He was the same official who called Syracuse’s C.J. Fair for a charge in the final seconds at Duke.

mauchow · 03-29-2014, 11:59 PM

KenPom Top 20 EFF's left:

1. Florida

That's it.

Kentucky is the closest to being the next one in (13/27).

Michigan St (7/34) is next with Wisconsin(4/44) right behind. UConn 46/13 and Michigan the furthest away (2/99).

mauchow · 03-30-2014, 12:07 AM

So glad that tomorrow's games are a lot earlier in the day.

mauchow · 03-30-2014, 12:25 AM

It's a student newspaper, if it's like the majority of them hardly anyone will notice.

rowech · 03-30-2014, 06:58 AM

Thankfully, the call didn't matter but I'm sick of seeing calls overturned with "indisputable" evidence that take 5 minutes to figure out. This goes for all sports. You should see every camera angle, slow it down, and if it's there, overturn it. If it's not, don't keep watching it over and over. Get on with the game.

Kodos · 03-30-2014, 08:55 AM

Congrats, Wisconsin fans. Obviously not a fan of Ryan, but happy for our FOFC contingent.
