If it's not Kansas tonight, I'm rooting for a meteor strike on Monday night.

Re: March Madness 2012
Looks like I'm guaranteed the USCHO win.
I'll win my family bracket competition unless Ohio State wins the whole thing on Monday.
There have been more than a couple good games this tournament. I've enjoyed watching (when I haven't been watching hockey).Go Red!!

Re: March Madness 2012
I don't mind Kansas. I think John Calipari represents everything that is wrong with collegiate athletics. I do not like Ohio State. I've said before that for some strange reason I've liked Rick Pitino for a long time. Now that Louisville is gone, process of elimination leaves Kansas.FERRIS STATE UNIVERSITY: 2012 FROZEN FOUR

Re: March Madness 2012
RE: the foul line call on OSU, seems the refs were really diligent on the free throw violations of the 3 point arc and the ft line in this tournament. They should be very proud that they haven't let the 3 point arc violation during a FT completely destroy college basketball.
It is a rule, but I find it hard to swallow that they can't call moving picks, they can't call walking, they can't call palming/carrying but they can call stuff like that. Granted, it is during a stoppage so it is easier to see, I just don't like them acting like they did a good job because they can quote the rulebook for a call when they ignore most of the rulebook throughout the game.
The bummer for OSU is that if he had waited .001 seconds he likely still would have gotten the ball, it was a heads up play, just a shame it was so easy to notice his early departure.
And I am no OSU fan.
After the behavior of the Kentucky fans, no way I'm rooting for them. (and that is before I consider Calipari's track record of cheat and run)I believe in life, and I believe in love, but the world in which I live in keeps trying to prove me wrong.Comment

Re: March Madness 2012
He needed to wait a lot more than 0.001 s. The rule isn't against setting foot in the lane, it's against breaking the plane of the foul line. He wasn't even close to legal. It was flagrant and it had a significant impact on the outcome of the play.Northeastern Huskies Class of 1998 / BS Chemical Engineering

Re: March Madness 2012
I share your dismay at how travels tend to get ignored. I will note that jump stops, if properly executed, are explicitly deemed legal by the rules.
As far as lane violations go... I think there's stuff you let go and stuff you call, and the offense in the OSU-KU game is squarely in the "stuff you call" camp. (If the FT in the ND-XU game had been missed, I'd put Grant's violation in the same boat, but the fact that the FT was made makes it a "warn him but don't call it" case.)Northeastern Huskies Class of 1998 / BS Chemical Engineering
