Only NU gets called for travelling, apparently.
Happy Buckeyes are just an awful sight.
We will avenge you Nebrasketball! Can't believe they blew this game. Potentially huge loss for Nebraska. They just ran out of steam.
I was bored at work, so.....
Big calls
They both travelled. The Neb. one was one that is more typically called.
Oh, man. The ass kissing of Craft will never end now.
Craft should have fouled out by now
He should have fouled out in the first half.
Totally sideshow bob
Pitt still up by 13 with 4 minutes left.
Just a completely epic choke job, Nebraska. Oh well...looks like Michigan will have to ruin the party for Ohio tomorrow.
looks like we won't get the Big Ten Coach-of-the-Year deathmatch after all.
started making their free throws because they've been playing hard? Dakich is getting ridiculous and spews copious amounts of nonsense.
On the PLUS SIDE:
imagine how fun it will be to bounce OSU?
ohio will be playing a 3rd game in 3 days, hopefully that will have an affect on them.
Go Blue!
Beat Ohio!
Pitt 75, NC 67 with 1:39 to go.
Pitt on the verge of collapse as well. Can't get the ball over half court.
Nebraska didn't give itself a chance after that last made free throw. Down four 67-71, and without any timeouts, to win you need to play in a way that allows for two possessions. Inbounding the ball and jacking up a three point shot as time expires is conceding.
If your goal is to WIN THE GAME, at that point, you have to throw a length of the court pass with the clock stopped so that you can score with time remaining, the more the better. What, was Nebraska worried that such a pass would get intercepted? Heavens, no! Then they might lose the game <<GASP!>>> Which they were assured of when they took the path of least resistance and inbounded the ball in the backcourt.
NC within 4, just under a minute to go.
The difference is still 4 with 0:16 to go.
Gotta credit Della Valle - I think he was emboldened by his teammates having nothing. It was like, hell, why not. But he played really good defense and does have some ability in transition. I still think he's challenged in the half-court, but he had a heck of a game.
Man, did Nebraska collapse, though. Ugly.
Wtf was that shot from UNC? Go up with the god damn ball. Fucker.
78-75 Pitt, 0:11 to go.
And now down 5 take a shot with your foot on the line. Dumbest team.
80-75 Pitt,, Final
Just because everyone looks alike.
Why can't we have our own jerseys like MSU and OSU? Why do we have to always have this Adidas template?
Team at the top of the Do Not Want list:
Louisville. O. M. G. they are on fire.
