The worst thing about the Lane Violation call is they didn't call it until after UNCA had gotten the rebound. It was such an obviously biased call.
Did you notice at the end when Syracuse had shot 2 FTs that they were lined up getting ready to shoot a third? They almost missed it.....At least 5 points.
2 from UNCA on the missed goal-tend
2 on the put back for Cuse after the ball was OB off the wiring
2 on the "shooting" foul against UNCA after the Cuse were actually over the back
2 for Cuse after the crappy Lane Violation call
2 more possible points after the horrible call with around a minute left. Refs called the ball OB against UNCA when it clearly hit the Cuse.
That's a 10 point swing off the top of my head. I really don't see how the NCAA can allow these refs to call another game this tournament.
You have to be able to sign in to xfinity as a Comcast customer...I couldn't get it to work. I went xfinity.com clicked "watch now" for a game and was prompted for a TruTV log on. This looks like Comcast which I don't have. Am I just slow, what's the deal? Thanks
IF we get those guys, I hope we outbid Creighton...I get my cable from Charter and I was able to log in and pick any game I wanted to watch all day long. If only more of the games had been worthy of watching. Like evreyone else, couldn't believe some of the calls in the Syracuse game, talk about gift wrapping...
Should have been a foul on the Out of bounds play. Body checks aren't allowed. Lane violation was clear. I don't really care either way on the game, but that's what it should've been.stupid VCU/Wichita State cost me a perfect first day.
and the refs from the syracuse game need to be investigated by the FBI.
Without Melo they could.After the game the UNC-Ashville coach said his team was the better team, in response to that the Syracuse coach said “that is why we have scoreboards.”
I hope Syracuse loses by 50 to K-State.
Shame on you for picking against my alma mater! Go Rams! Back again, to bust your bracket. Check out the ad VCU took out on the Washington post.stupid VCU/Wichita State cost me a perfect first day.

that was one of the games that gave me pause to pick.Shame on you for picking against my alma mater! Go Rams! Back again, to bust your bracket. Check out the ad VCU took out on the Washington post.
But hey, at least you can say the VCU/Wichita game was officiated well! I really think the officials were thinking about the $$$ when they called the Syracuse game. These tournaments are all about money. You have to keep the money schools in it if nothing else. Maybe I am cynical.
At least we'll both be pulling for the Tide today. Roll Tide.
Honestly I thought Wichita State was going to beat VCU but picked with my heart not my head.that was one of the games that gave me pause to pick.
