Did Those Whistles Taste Good

First of all...this is a week or so late....and second of all...I am a UC fan. That said....

I was wondering....did anyone think that Stokes got fouled at the end of the UC / UCLA game's 1st OT?

To my point...I am wondering, did the whistles get held becase the contact was with 5 seconds left? Admittedly, I had a TV angle and not the lead's angle. It looked to me that the defense (UCLA) got a clear advantage out of the deal.

So anyway, I'm sitting there and I'm thinking....Man thats pressure. All hell breaking loose right in front of you...5 seconds left...tie game...Overtime....national TV....thats pressure. So did they eat em? Stokes said he asked why he didn't get a call and the lead allegedly said "because you didnt have control of the ball".

Oh, I'm not lobbying that UC got hosed. They had their chances to win and on that day....UCLA was 1% better. But I was left wondering...man that would have been a helluva game to work...and man I'm glad it wasnt me! At least for now!

Ok, fine...I'll say it....STOKES GOT HAMMERED FOR CRISSAKES!!!!

Glad I could get that off my chest.

Anyone out there have any "make or break" calls this tourney season?
