The Xavier guy did quite the acting job on that play though. Oden pushed the guy but not nearly hard enough to send him flying like he did. The Xavier player went flying like a Mexican soccer player. And that play shouldn't even matter because if Xavier makes its free throws, they win the game.

 

And if the ref calls a flagrant foul, like it would normally be called in rec league, high school, college, or NBA, Xavier wins the game too.

 

You can't control the what the refs are going to do and can't assume anything. You can control making your own free throws. Xavier didn't make theirs, too bad for them.

I don't buy that. Like if the ump makes a bad call on a play at the plate to end the game... you can say "well you shouldn't have given up the hit in the 9th" or "should've scored more runs", but when a ref screws up, he screws up. Why even have a flagrant foul rule if you're going to let a guy push an opponent down to the ground? I guess he needs to pick him up and crack him over his knee to get a flagrant foul in that spot.

Amazing...can't wait until someone gets a better video online. I'm shocked that CBS sportsline hasn't gotten some footage up on demand. This is an all-time classic comeback.

Unfortunately, I don't think Memphis matches up as well with Ohio State as A&M would've. So now I think OSU will make it to the Final Four, which is ridiculous. They could be the only team in tournament history to go 2-2 in the tourney, and still make the final four.

 

Is anyone else still amazed that every #1 seed still remains. When was the last time that all four #1's made the final four? I don't think it'll happen this year, but there's still a good shot.

I don't really get that intentional foul. Oden was fouled before he was wrapped up and that never gets called as an intentional foul.

It seems like Ohio State is getting the benefit of the foul calls.

 

yeah i'm not sure if they pay the refs or just the players, but how is oden getting wrapped up an intentional foul, but him throwing someone out of bounds not one? These guys really need to lose, I'm tired of the luck and the b.s. calls going their way.

This is probably Calipari's last game as Memphis head coach.

 

I wonder what is going to happen to his resteraunt?

 

Please go to Michigan. Please go to Michigan.

Umm...what the heck? The announcer said that an Ohio State 3-point shot was the dagger for Memphis - even though that 3-pointer gave OSU a 5-point lead with 6:40 to go?
In hindsight the announcer was right about that. :D
