Backdoor cover. Ruined a bunch of people's day I'm sure lol.

Hell of a game. Michigan really does seem like a team of destiny right now.

Wow anyone catch the end of this Seton Hall - Arkansas game? Sketchy flagrant foul called at the end of the game.

Initially ruled a common foul, then the refs huddle and called it flagrant. Things that make you go "hmmm....."

Yeah it was a flimsy call.

At the same time, I've never understood why fouling at the end of a game is allowed, if you go 100% by the book there is a call in the book for it (the old intentional foul was rolled into today's flagrant 1, and every foul at the end is technically intentional) that they don't use.

I think it was the right call by the letter of the rule... It wasn't the norm grab at him/slap him type of try and foul him. He pushed him from behind/on the side with a clear path to the basket.

Seeing the replay again, this is the better description. You can "intentionally" foul going for the ball, but that was of the non-quote variety.

After watching it and seeing the discussion, I'm leaning toward it being the correct call, just an unfortunate one.

Complete and utter horseshit call. You don't make that call there.

Call looked good to me. He didn't go for the ball.

I thought it was Flagrant 1 when I watched live. Nothing since has don't anything but make me agree with myself. I'm not sure how a shove in the back is anything but flagrant?

Didn't see it, but I'm of the school that if it wasn't a horrible call in minute one, it's not a horrible call in minute 40.
