Loyola - Kansas State

[vernoncoy]

22% from 3, 37% FGA for KSU. 12 total fouls called.

This could not happen to a better team. First their committment to fouling PJ and then that BS about not shaking hands! Go to hell KSU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[IHATEUAVEL]

K State should have no problem lining up for the congratulatory handshake after the game. Might want to get started lining up. MFrrs

Love it

 

[Schwagg]

KSU comeback!

 

[UKDC80]

Pretty dam bad we are talking about how LC would have beaten us. I long for the days when we could say, “********, we are Kentucky. We ain’t losing to no mid major!”

 

[cathouse_rivals216755]

Refs are swallowing their whistle a little on one end. Gonna help make it a game.

 

[UKvisitor_rivals101449]

Anyone see that Loyola player save the ball from out of bounds and then he stepped out. He came back in bounds and was the 1st to touch the ball. Is that legal?

 

[Captain_Kentucky]

We have better athletes they have better basketball players. Give me somebody who can put the ball in the hoop. If I hear Cal talk about wing spans next pre season I will scream. Our guys rarely even had their arms up playing D.

Yep it’s not hard hitting a 3 over someone who may be right in front of you but has their hands in their pockets. They did it all year but I guess that is considered acceptable perimeter defense

 

[anon_013cn8yrfncx2]

All of a sudden not being called the same on both ends

I think that rule only applies in the NFL.

 

[Lukasz0brzut]

They’re letting em play a little tonight.

 

[TortElvisII]

That was a charge on Thursday.

Quite obvious.

 

[richbrookstomato]

That was a charge on Thursday.

The K State kid had better position there than they did on the Charge call on Knox.

Ridiculous!!

 

[Snackbar11]

K-State player tried a finger roll that hit nothing caught the ball hisself and put it back in..didnt know you could pass to yourself...

 

[Ineverplayedthegame]

That was a charge on Thursday.

It’s always a toss up as who is the worst official between Jamie Luckie and Ed Corbett, but it would appear that Luckie gets the prize.

 

[FlCATFan_rivals26961]

Just make your foul shots here Loyola! You'll be fine.

 

[UKvisitor_rivals101449]

Porter Moser, HC for Loyola, his going to get some job offers. I think the coach's convention happens at the Final four site, where jobs are discussed.

They changed the rule. You can rebound your own airball.

 

[MarkPftw]

Oh..no 51 fouls and a crap ton of whistles and stoppages to help you along in the game, KSU ? Awww..gee shucks.

no, it is not legal

 

[JLK83]

KSU could have made a game of it if they played with this much urgency earlier.

Go hump a poodle Bruce

Are you sure? IDK. If you stumble but act like your shooting and catch your fumble, that is okay?

 

[Ugoff]

no, it is not legal

I believe the rule states that if it is "deemed" a shot attempt you can retrieve it.

 

[cathouse_rivals216755]

Line up snowflakes. Gonna shake them little wussy hands.

 

[UKSanders_rivals37733]

I haven't kept up with this thread, but does anyone else really enjoy watching the Loyola team play?

Oddly enough, they look very similar to what I kind of expected from Cal's dribble drive offense with most every player able to drive to the rim.

I do think they will have a problem when they face a team with a dominant post game. I think they would struggle with Kansas or Duke... maybe even against Michigan.

 

[UKEE93]

I hope Loyola skips the handshake line.

 

[madskilz]

They still beat us. Cain’t take that away from them. We did that. Since 2012,we always seem to have that one disastrous game.

 

[Catzman]

Exactly. Their tears give me sustenance

 

[UKSanders_rivals37733]

I agree about catching your own airball being legal, but I was replying to the player saving it inbounds to himself, which I don't think IS legal b/c you cannot "pass" to yourself.

 

[HenryMuto]

Just think Loyola was a 22 foot 3 pointer at the buzzer miss away from losing in the 1st round (Or if Miami hit 2 FT's in the final seconds to take a 3 point lead then foul them so they couldn't hit the 3) and now in the Final 4.

 

[CatOfDaVille]

Happy for Loyola. If it wasn't going to be us, I'm happy it's them. Great story.

 

[Ugoff]

Yep that sounds dodgy.

 

[HenryMuto]

Congrats to Loyola may as well win the whole damn thing and shock the world now.

 

[Chuckinden]

no, it is not legal

Yes it is. As long as the player has established himself inbounds.

And Michigan (barring an FSU upset) about to make the Final Four after a miraculous buzzer beater. So we are going to have a team in the Finals that is EXTREMELY lucky to be there. I love the tournament and would never change it but I agree it does not determine the best team in a given season. Way too much luck involved

 

[Chuckinden]

Yes it is. As long as the player has established himself inbounds.

Oh wait, you mean no one else touched the ball after he saved it? Then you are correct. My apologies.

 

[TortElvisII]

Are you sure? IDK. If you stumble but act like your shooting and catch your fumble, that is okay?

I don't agree with it but somebody posted the rule the other day.

 

[UKvisitor_rivals101449]

I don't agree with it but somebody posted the rule the other day.

I can't understand why Duke players haven't started exploiting that rule.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

That's a confusing rule, but I think it is. What's illegal is intentionally going out of bounds, like they do along the baseline and then coming around and getting the ball passed to them. Something about using the out of bounds area to gain an advantage. But I think as long as you re-establish yourself inbounds, you can do that. But I could be wrong.
