Called a shot clock violation on MSU's first possession...

With the game clock at 19:36.

I mean, you don't have to be a math major to figure this one out.

WTF, refs?

Apparently because it went out of bounds on the tip, it was inbounded in the front court and the shot clock was set to 20 seconds. I may be wrong but I am going to say that it was correct because of the inbounds in the front court? Can anyone say for sure?

Thank you. That was going to annoy me the rest of the day wondering how that happened.

I forget the game but one of our conference games the shot clock was incorrectly reset at least twice. What's crazy is that it benefitted us and we were playing on the road. Some of us speculated that the person running the shot clock was confused because the women's game has different rules.

As I recall, we turned the ball over on our side of the court and when they threw it in, the clock was set for 20 seconds and not 30. Nobody caught it except for a few of us on RR.

I guess Michigan state can only hit shots against UK. So far, it’s brick city for both teams.

Yep being a UK fan in Louisville certainly has it's disadvantages at times.
Louisville fans will tell you that it's 50/50 but it's not, more like 55/45 UK & more like 60/40 UK when you extend out through metro Louisville, Shelby, Oldham, Bullitt etc etc.

It took four seconds for the ball to go out of bounds? What a stupid rule of that's true.

Louisville is doing a lot better than Kentucky did despite not having Brown. But they can’t get the lead.

I despise both teams. But I despise Louisville more. So Go Izzo. Yikes just noticed. Mich state plays the Uconn/UCLA winner. So go IZZO for one more round. Hopefully Pitino knocks out Jailhawks and TCU takes out Puke
