2018-2019 College Basketball Discussion (Official Thread)

I just saw the 6-point possession by Florida. Ridiculous. The ref called a defensive foul off the ball on LSU, which was fine, but they had a conference and decided to count an obvious delayed / continuation 3 for Florida, then LSU interim coach gets T'd up. And Florida was in the bonus. Three points for the shot, and four FTs. You cant draw up a better scenario when you are down 3 with under 4 minutes to go.

That play, and those 6 points, likely got us into the Dance when we beat LSU. Granted, there was that whole prior game thing - and we made the clutch three at the end of the game. After a long up-and-down year, we seem to be safely nestled with tOSU in the four safe bye spots.

Big East refs had a brutal game tonight. Calling touch fouls late that had Gus Johnson complaining. Weak T for.a player skipping down the court after being called for a foul. The teams combined for 57 fouls and 85 free throws. 9 technicals, four foul-outs, and 3 ejections, plus one reneged ejection. Hair-trigger whistle.

I don't think I have ever seen a guy miss a dunk in the final minutes and get called for hanging on the rim before for a Tech.

Lots of teams to root against today so no more bid stealers emerge. We are fighting 2 fights here one to get into the dance and the 2nd to avoid Dayton.

Rooting against

Bowling Green
Oregon
San Diego State

2nd level rooting these are teams 2 wins away from stealing a bid

Memphis
Wichita State

3rd level rooting these teams look to be in but a loss today they could move below us possibly

Florida

I think too many dominoes are falling against us and Kaleb's 3 game hiatus is likely to be the difference between NCAA and NIT.

Had the Bucks not gone 0-3, it would be a different story. Losing at home to Illinois, with Kaleb, didn't help either.
