I love the NBA analysts on the NCAA tournament, including Charles. He did go overboard criticizing this call, which by the way is incredibly hard at real speed. I don't know how the Lead could have seen the heel over that line by maybe an inch. Either way, he is entertaining and that is what the networks want. The other guys in the studio defended the officials, and talked about how they miss calls, players make mistakes, coaches make mistakes...It's all part of the game.

I thought Chuck took it way too personal, he was tired of his criticisms of the Big Ten blowing up in his face and latched onto this like it was the holy grail of why ISU got screwed. Kenny and Greg Anthony were pretty reasonable, but Gumbel teased it all day as the "CONTROVERSIAL" call. Not a once was it mentioned that this came with 1:41 left in the game, not 20 seconds or something.

According to my bracket it was a great call.
