I have to admit, it was the most enjoyable women's game I have seen --two really good teams who played very hard...
Admittedly still not the appeal of men's college basketball, but on a night with no other games, I'll bet it did pretty well in the ratings...
BTW -- did anyone see the two football bowl games...both of which had eerie endings ?
Kansas State got absolutely ROBBED by an official's penalty call when the player saluted his team's fans after scoring a TD -- it was far, far less "celebrating" than I have seen in 99% of similar plays, yet the ref slapped a 15-yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct -- forcing K-State to go for a 2-pt conversion from the 18 yard line to tie the game...they failed.
That ref should be investigated....in a game like this, you HAVE TO let the kids decide the winner, not the stupid whistle on an irrelevant play.
The media coast to coast is unanimous in saying this ref was horrible...
Video of the excessive celebration penalty that cost Kansas State the Pinstripe Bowl against the Syracuse Orange. Adrian Hilburn was flagged for saluting the crowd, backing up the Wildcats two-point conversion to the 18.
The other game was even better -- North Carolina literally rising from the grave to come back with weird plays, controversial calls, horrible clock management, more bad calls and missed penalties by the refs...but the better team did won...
and since Tennessee is just maybe my least favorite team..I was quite happy!
In perhaps the craziest ending in a college football season loaded with crazy finishes, the Music City Bowl featured almost too many wild late moments to catalog. Let’s attempt. The Tennessee...

both K-State and Tennessee got robbed really.....unbelievable on the K-State call...the celebration penalties are anybody's guess on how a ref will view them...
Tennessee actually got away with a late hit and even in the Illinois game, that hit when the Illini had Baylor backed up on their own goal line -- was NOT worthy of a penalty--
It was a gift to Baylor and helped them get a TD...
Seems a lot of games are being decided by refs...
Did you see this thread on the Illinois board?
