Did anyone happen to see the elbow thrown by Suton tonight against Indiana? I got back from class and turned on a relatively tight game (for Indiana) midway through the second half. Suton was fighting for a loose ball under the basket, was frustrated with Indiana players grabbing at the ball too and subsequently through an elbow. While he didn't break a nose, it was much more egregious than Manny's at Purdue. However, as per usual no foul even. I guess I'm just bitter...

Suton did make a really good
Suton did make a really good play stealing that outlet pass with 30 seconds left, which was followed by the absolutely ridiculous play of Morgan slamming in the missed 3. Too bad, I was really hoping the Hoosiers could pull this one out.

It's not an elbow..
when an MSU player does it. It's mererly an accidental mislocation of the olecranon process of the ulna, and therefore not a foul.
But GOD FORBID IF A UM PLAYER DOES IT!
The "MSU/Final Four in Detroit" conspiracy theories are looking better all the time.....
not to be confused
not to be confused with Sutton elbow, with is an inflammatory condition caused by excess cocktail drinking.
I know people are sick and tired of hearing about complaints regarding the refs, but this is yet another example of just how crazy this year has been...
