Perhaps they still steal the next inbounds anyway and go up 3. No one knows, but to wipe the go ahead basket with 16 seconds is usually the end of the game.

So just so I am sure I understand you correctly here, it is your contention that the officials "cost" Baylor the game?

I know I've made an incorrect call at the end of a game before that cost a team the win....ones that if I had made a different call, a different team would have won. It may have not been the only factor that led to that situation, but I was certainly a contributing factor.

So, this call was also contributing in that sense. It certainly wasn't the only factor, but it was a factor.

And, further, to take a score off the board with so little time left usually leaves insufficient time to recover. If the same thing happened with 3 minutes left, it wouldn't be such big deal. It is the timing of the situation that makes it so impactful.

Baylor was fouled and sent to the line after this call. The FTs took the lead, then Louisville was fouled on the next possession. Sorry, but they had a lot of chances, let alone Baylor coach was out coached most of the game and had to make a furious comeback to have a chance. Sorry, I do not agree with your assessment of this situation.

Peace

Not buying it.

Have We all made a call towards the end of the game that we later wanted back? Sure. But to say that you cost them the game, or that the officials in this case cost Baylor the game, is total garbage.

There are so many things to go into a game...turnovers, missed gimme shots, bad shots that shouldn't have been taken, stupid fouls, missed free throws, etc., etc.

The crew on this game was not very good that night. But Baylor didn't exactly play very well, either. Louisville out hustled them and out coached them.
