crazy day....FLA and LOU win ugly, but comfortably and control the game....WI and MSU put on the ropes...and, of course, 'Cuse gets knocked out.

Except that was 2 straight Harvard possessions with fouls on Sparty that were not called.

I hope you aren't talking about Payne and the Valentine steal. Neither of those were fouls.

The 2 before the steal were fouls. They would have been fouls on the other end of the floor.

If a Sparty player would have jumped into a Harvard player like that he is going to the line.

You talkin about when Payne went straight up and the Harvard player just missed the layup? What was the other foul you were referencing

My thoughts exactly, especially on the no call on Payne...wasnt even close to being a foul IMO.

Didn't see the play before Payne's, but he was vertical. That was absolutely not a foul.

It absolutely would have been a foul if a Sparty player did it.

The play before was when Triche(?) was hanging all over the dude and he made the lay in. Should have been an and 1.

Nova-UConn living up to the hype thus far.

Be interesting to see if Nova comes back and "steals" this....one of those games where you can't see how a team can possibly win (unless UConn goes ice-cold, and Napier doesn't look like he'll let that happen).

I hope Nova does commit a theft here. I really wanted to pick UConn, but decided to "play the field" and take the Wildcats instead (since I knew most everyone would). I hate myself for taking the easy way out there, especially given how much I have hated on Nova all year.
