I think it was intentional BUT I also think that if X does any one of 4 things they win:
1 - dont turn the ball over in the last min of regulation on a throw in. (and then foul the layup!!)
OR
2 - Cage makes his last free throw
OR
3 - Run a bigger lineup to get better pressure on the last shot in regulation.
OR
4 - Foul with 3 seconds left putting OSU on the line for 2 when they are down 3 and take your chances.
Course - thats not the point of this thread. I think the point of "its intentional except under conditions A B or C" is an awfully slippery slope.
