Another blown call, how did they miss that one? Magoo could have seen that the Illini player touched the ball."Educate and inform the whole mass of the people...they are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty."

WKU really played stupid down the stretch and there was some iffy officiating, but the Hilltoppers pulled it out.
Unfortunately, VCU was my other upset pick for today and they weren't quite able to get it done. Hopefully Dayton will come through for me tomorrow.

This game was absolutely terrible. Absolutely no defense until the last 4 minutes, and a pathetic perimeter defense. The only guy who showed up to play today was Trent Meacham. Tisdale was a joke today. How a 7 footer can get absolutely dominated by a smaller WKU frontline and out rebounded at that, is beyond me.

That was crazy. I think the rules are that you can't overturn the call that Illinois touched the ball on that inbound. By rule, that's locked into place.
However, going to the replay, it's determined the Illinois player touched the ball and that 0.1 seconds ran off the clock during it.
Therefore, by rule, they're supposed to take the 0.1 off the clock since the ball was touched, since the clock is reviewable, but the actual call that the ball DIDN'T touch Illinois is not allowed to be changed.
Rules suck. How in the world do you write the rules in this scenario? You, in theory, can't open up every play to instant replay, so you just can't give the ball to WKU there; however, by rule, you have no choice but to take the 0.1 off the clock.
And even funnier, I can't think of a way to put a rule, into writing, that would provide a proper ruling for the play and what actually took place.
