    Now, that lane violation appeared to be complete BS to me. After the bucket goes in the ref says a guy crossed the 3 point line, the announcer said it was before the ball was shot, which i don't think was the case but they didn't show it again after he said that. if it was after the ball was shot, once it went in the play was dead so it wasn't like the guy came over the line and got a rebound, he could have just come up and high fived the shooter, is that a violation too?
    Unlike the NBA, the ball needs to hit rim before a guy can cross the three point line. I caught it before the ref did. Correct call, if somewhat gutsy that late in the game.

      Even worse than the ND play was the kid from St. Mary's who just needed to inbound the ball with his team in the lead with 20 seconds left and forgot that you're not allowed to run the baseline after a turnover.

        gutsy isn't what i'd call it...it had no bearing on the play and there were 2.8 seconds left in a, then one point, ncaa game. What was his next call going to be, coach stepping out on the floor or too much pine tar on the bat?

          Go figure, my bracket's in the 99th percentile on ESPN.

          All of my wrong picks with the exception of Duke I had going out in the 2nd round anyways. Duke's currently my only wrong Sweet Sixteen team.

            I think mine is down in the bottom .5% over there on ESPN. I think the only way I really could have done worse this year would have been to call for all 4 sixteen seeds to win. Only thing I got going for me is that I at least still have 2 of the final four left.

              Norfolk State was soundly eliminated by Florida tonight. Also, Georgetown was bounced by NC State.

                  And if you were thinking of getting on the Lehigh bandwagon, stay off. They were beaten by Xavier tonight. There is plenty of room on the Ohio bandwagon, though...

                        Michigan State is already back on the road after getting in late Sunday night.

                          I've come to the opinion that the gophs should aim their entire season at the NIT.

                            That's not true. The article says they were in class on Monday. I'm sure they don't go more than once a week anyway.

                              After losing Mbakwe to start the season, the NIT was realistically their only hope this season, despite winning 5 or 6 in a row right after he went down.
