LSU kinda robbed
- Thread starter canebreak
- Start date
He pulled the hand back and it was almost a walk, but looked like he didn't travel, and the blame on losing lies at the feet of LSU. Hit half your free throws down the stretch and you win.
No walk or over the back. LSU had inside position but state guy got to the ball up high and tipped it in. Thought it was over the back myself at first but on replay did not see it. Good play. LSU flat choked the game away 0-12 from the field and 0-6 from the line down the stretch.
LSU missed their last 6 free throws, right? as well as a 1 foot shot near the end.
The eye test says CHOKE.
The statistical test says CHOKE.
Most obvious choke I have seen in awhile.

LSU handed NC State the combination to the vault and said, take it all. If you call that being robbed, then they got robbed.
To miss the last 12 shots of the game and the last six foul shots is handing the game to NC State. The only thing they did't do is gift wrap it.

This thread is a good example of how hard it is too referee basketball .Having a comfortable lead and losing rthe game can be attributed to a lot of things. Blaming the coach or refs is just the easiest way to explain it away. Of course missing half of your free throws contribute also.
But we would not have anything to discuss if it was all that cut and dried..lol.
Its fun isn't it?

Doesn't look like goal tending to me.

Umm, NO, that Yahoo slow replay above very clearly shows he did NOT touch it.
Amazes me the way fans will always find a way to blame the refs in close losses. Looks to me like the refs did a fantastic job getting the calls right down the stretch of the game, yet here we have folks trying to blame them anyways.

LSU has no one to blame but themselves but I could swear it looked they could have had an over the back on the final shot rebound.
as an LSU hoops fan, choke job. plain and simple. from jones down to the 7 guys who played. never had a doubt that n.c. state would get back in the game. been that way for that program since dale brown to present.
