Didn't see it but my friend just told me that Byu was down 2 and scored off a tip in with 4 secs left. A byu player ran onto the floor to celebrate but the ball was in play and he got a technical foul. The New Mex guy missed both foulshots and then New Mexico player went backdoor on the inbounds and dunked it at the buzzer. Thats some crazy stuff and I'm pissed I missed the game.
It was just a game Byu did not care to win they twice had lead with under 2 minutes and fouled a New Mexico player way away from the basket to let NM tie it and then NM Hit big 3 to go up 63-61 with 13 seconds and BYU Got Miracle tip in with 4 seconds to tie and then this guy who fouled out for Byu runs on to the court drawing the technical so NM Get 2 FTs with 4 seconds left and the Guy Missed Both I guess Byu was mad that he missed them so on the Inbounds pass NM throws a long pass in to Their best player Granger who scored the Easiest Layup there has ever been hit to win a game. Looked awful fishy and yeah I was on BYU.

I'll admit, I was on BYU, but I thought the fouls on BYU away from the basket were weak calls. Yes, BYU made some contact with the New Mex players, but it was a close game. The refs shouldn't call ticky-tack fouls like that, and the New Mex players should hold their ground and play through it.
Of course, the refs also blew that goal-tending call. BYU touched the ball first.

Alan...Fishy??? You gotta be kiddin'! The fact that Granger got behind Araujo is hardly shocking, as Araujo is incredibly slow. And the pass by DeVries was AMAZING! Off balance, length of the court, dead on target.
You're letting the fact you had BYU cloud your judgment. There was nothing even remotely "fishy" here. Unusual, yes. Bizarre, absolutely. But that's it!
