No way was that a FF1. Totally clean move to the hoop.

Right, but also not a foul on the defense.

Unfortunate to have such a great game come down to the officiating.

What a dumbass.

The game came down to two freshman that made plays. Officiating had nothing to do with this game.

BTW, I was cheering for Wisconsin all the way.

Peace

I agree. Duke made the plays to win. There were some tough calls, but there are tough calls in any game. I stand by my critique of the review, however. I don't understand how millions of people sitting at home can see who is the last to touch the ball but the 3 people that matter cannot. I'm guessing they didn't get the same angles at the same slow motion that the audience got.

Everyone in America? I had a debate with my girlfriend about if it touched the Duke player. So not sure how everyone sees it that way. There was only one angle that was definitive. And it was a close call that only replay would have caught the touch. It was that close. Sorry, but I am sure there was a lot of debate over that call. And they seemed to only show that replay once that confirmed even a touch.

Peace

Rut, the replay showed the ball was clearly off the Duke player. Two angles showed it. How those three guys choose not to see it is unexplainable. If the angle was definitive as you say, how did they not reverse the call?

Bo says (CBS post-game interview)...
"You just have to able to hands and the checking. There was more body contact than any game we played all year, and I just feel sorry for my guys that, all of a sudden, a game was like that. They (UW players) are struggling with that a little.... It's a shame it had to be played that way."

Exactly right. I'm not criticizing the call in real time. But as soon as the monitor is turned around, then the level of expected accuracy goes up significantly.
