Cue the article in 2 weeks from Yahoo! about how the ref is Boeheim's college roommmate.

Well, are these the same refs that will be adjudicating Ohio State's game today, or how do they do that?

The lane violation looked legit. I'll concede the goaltend and the foul after the Triche out. But, it's convenient for those rooting the 16 to upset the 1 to forget about/ignore the bad call that went against Syracuse (end of the 1st half). Possible +2 that coulda been after what shoulda been 2 for Triche.

OK, so give Cuse 2 for that call. And give Asheville 2 for the goal tend. Even right?

That ball clearly went off Triche. That call more than dictated the outcome of the game.

LOL at the end of the first half. The game was at 3 points with less than a minute to go in the GAME and the refs gave syracuse the game. It's bullshit.

No it didn't. One bad call didn't decide the game.

There is no way, shape or form that ball should have went to Syracuse. That is a fucking joke.

Can we give the 2 points at the end of the half? I mean, I agree he should have been shooting two, but nothing's ever guaranteed. We're just playing with "what ifs" there. The refs were just terrible down the stretch, no doubts about it.

Edit: I'll concede the lane violation. Dude was in paint before the ball was released.

Correct. A series of bad calls did.

Who cares who the lane violation was on if it's the right call. And Elmore said a foul shoulda been called on the Triche out.

A FOUL WASN'T CALLED.

It was Asheville ball. The refs HANDED this game to Cuse.

So there's one less bad call.

Damn shame that officiating decided the outcome, not the players. No guarantee that they capitalize on those bad calls, but Jesus Christ....that was awful.

no point in arguing with him. He's a steelers, notre dame football, syracuse bball and knicks bball fan. He's just in it for the color orange and their retarded mascot.

But Elmore said there should have been a foul called there. If the roles are reversed some of you would be bitching that there should have been a foul called on Syracuse there. Disagree?

Who the fuck cares what Lenny Elmore said? He wasn't officiating the game. Yes it SHOULD have been a foul. IT WASN'T CALLED A FOUL. You can't just give the ball to Cuse because it SHOULD have been something.

That's great. I pick 'cuse to make the finals and their idiot 7 ft starting center can't stay on the team.

With all due respect...who gives a fuck what you say? You weren't officiating it either. Game is over. Syracuse won.
