Me too, definitely not something that needed to be called at that point from where it was called. If it was a make-up, as Nevada thinks it might have been, it was heavy handed and wrong.

Dan, I just wanted to clarify my thoughts on the carry. I think you misunderstood what I was saying. I do NOT think that it was a make up call, rather it gave just the opposite impression.

That call went AGAINST Wake just as it seemed the majority of the calls did in the 2OT periods. While the other calls were all correct IMO, I felt that carry made it seem like everything was going against Wake.

So instead of being a make up call, which could have been an explanation if the carry had been called against West Virginia, it was another tough one that went against Wake.

Since it was borderline, and bearing in mind the way the other decisions had gone, I would have liked to have seen the carry passed on, but I cannot say that it was wrong because the kid did hesitate with the dribble.
