FL/Wisconsin
4.0 seconds left in OT
Leon of FL called for a foul on drive by Hayes of WI.
What did the defender do wrong?

Edit: Justice as FL wins on a buzzer-beater 3pt shot.

When I re watched he tried to get back in position after being beat and tripped the offensive player on the shot. Just what I saw.

Verne reffed OT like he didn't want a double OT. There were several iffy calls going Wisconsin's way the last 2 minutes, but fate stepped in and the correct team won.

Yes, thank god the game wasn't decided by that final Wisconsin possession.

As for what the Fla. defender did wrong on Hayes, I felt the same way as you ... initially. After watching it a few times, I'm guessing it was his hands all over Hayes' back throughout his ridiculous spin-move travel.

My main concern on the play was the travel. I understand 99/100 spin moves these days are travels and I also understand 89/100 will not be called, but moments like this are cringeworthy when basketball society's acceptance (all of us and myself included) of these textbook-illegal moves as legal leads to (or nearly leads to) the game-winning points.

Foul occurs before Hayes completes his spin move, so I don't know how anybody could say this is a travel.

Because they absolutely would have counted the hoop had it gone in.
