Why did SMU not use a single timeout all game? They needed 1 about 5 different times.

Yes, I'm salty as hell they are out.

SMU walks the ball down the court when they get it down 1 with 10 sec left.

He 2 hand touched him and feet got tangled and he went down. Would have been a horrible call in minute 1 as well.

He could have just grabbed jersey/wrapped him up. Instead, he was frustrated and gave a little shove.

I could be wrong, but recent history to me suggests those 11-seeds that have the play-in game are tough outs.

It was a small push that was magnified by their legs getting tangled. It probably looked worse then it was but there was so many other ways he coulda fouled him and not came close to a flagrant

Point being, he was there in PLENTY of time to just hack/hug/grab whatever. He elected to push. He was frustrated the season was over and it was a flagrant foul.

True. I meant more frustrated they had to foul to extend the season. Since they had just had a chance for the win/lead. Missed layup, O-Reb and turnover on the possession prior.

Dayton/Wichita has the potential to be a classic. Been looking forward to this one all day.

Certainly does. I like watching UC so I'm into that game. They are dangerous IMO.
