Would have been sweat free if the inept zebras (all 3 of them) didn't blow a call that millions of viewers saw correctly as soon as it happened. I'm referring to the Illinois player knocking the inbound pass out of bounds and the incompetent zebras give it to Illinois.
really, that was horrible....how is it even possible to be standing forward, throw it forward, and the ball go sideways out of bounds? common fucking sense would've told those refs it was off illinois...and they even went back to watch the time to see if clock ran off, and they kept it same....are they not allowed to overturn?
WKU got more than their fair share of calls in this one. Flops rewarded several times, so many touch fouls called on Illinois. My personal favorite was the hit Mendez-Valdez put on two Illinois players at the three minute mark that wasn't called. John Lynch would have been proud.
Didn't watch much of the game. Decided to watch when it was 70-62 (after they put it on local TV). Whether the calls went one way or the other, I thought the wrong team was favored.
Spent most of the night watching the Oklahoma game. I needed over 134-1/2 in that one to avert complete disaster (along with W.KY). It took a minor miracle to get there, but still had to overcome 4 missed FTs in the last 20 seconds by an Oklahoma scrub who should never be allowed near a basketball again (the game was sitting on 134). Thankfully,another scrub rebounded the last miss and got fouled (and made 'em)
