Told my homie who’s a UNC fan “I hope Hubert doesn’t pull a Cal”. But he did. They don’t have a prayer in OT I don’t think, but who knows it’s been a wild game.

You know……definitely less than stellar officiating in this game. But my goodness how do you blow a 25 point lead in 10 minutes??!! 😆

The left side of the bracket keeps opening up for Duke
I said on here a few weeks ago that I fully expect Duke to win it all. They will play an absolute **** team in the semis like they usually do (think 2015) and then maybe face Arizona in the finals.

Scott Drew's guys: What's the score? 25? We got this.

John Calipari's guys: What's my draft stock? 9? I got this.

I’m at a complete loss how you can call a timeout and then that’s the shot you get
Because despite what many think players still have to execute. That's not what Hubert drew up. Baylor's D was just better and UNC didn't execute.

Exactly why calling a timeout is not as cut and dry as people think.

Scott Drew's guys fight for him and their program.

John Calipari's guys fight for themselves.

I agree with the last part

as far as the first part. I dunno.
It wasn’t even lack or execution. They threw it into the back court and dude just dribbled up top for 5 seconds. They didn’t even try to anything lol

Of course offensive foul called what happened to defender can't be moving once offensive player gets in the air

The only thing worse than officiating in college basketball is how often people try and draw charges. It's so pathetic how many people simply try and slide in front of offensive players and fall down. And just as bad that officials default to calling charges as opposed to blocks.

The NCAA really needs to try and eliminate as many charge calls as possible in the game. A defender should never be awarded for sliding in front of someone at the very last millisecond. Never.

This is coming from the fan of a team whose coach got out coached by St. Peter's.
I’d say your response to me would make more sense if I didn’t wholeheartedly agree that Cal was garbage on Thursday night. It’s not like I’ve been supporting Calipari’s performance recently, lol.

Should have driven into Bacot every play till he was out the way the refs are calling it.
