Tournament Thread Round of 32

[Danny Noonan]

He was. You could see his arm get hit. And he got knocked to the ground. that's a foul 100% of the time if you know what you're doing out there.

But since they didn't call 2 shots and the ball for Nova after Hayes dirty foul off the steal, I know these guys don't know that.

yeah by the ball... the defender had all ball (which was hit into his arm)... It was not a foul.. But like I said, I'm surprised it wasn't called due to it being called all night

 

[The Q]

Hayes uses his body a lot. Trick is to always do it. Old Big East style

He bumps the guy moving into the driver (Hart's space) on 3 straight possessions.

I didn't see an F1 there at all.

F1 is not attempting to make a play on the ball. That's why the called it yesterday. I'd say grabbing a guys arm to prevent him from having a break away qualifies

 

[michaeljordan_fan]

Learn the rules.

I know the rules.

Clearly not.

He grabbed him by the waist.

 

[CCF151]

Whelp, there goes my bracket...

 

[The Q]

Clearly not.

You don't wanna play this game.

Guys tried it last year saying that Wisky "traveled" on that inbounds pass vs. Xavier.

You need to look up the rules of Verticality if you don't think Hayes was fouling Hart.

Only 9 perfect brackets left on ESPN bracket challenge

Really don't know, but do they have a clear path foul in College?

Louisville does that. Always swiping at the ball and bumping. Force the refs to call 40 fouls or let them play.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

I feel like the refs were pretty one sided against Nova most of the game, but that last drive was on Hart. He drove some weak ass shit.

 

[Smart]

I feel terrible for Villanova for getting that draw, but I'd for a lot worse for them if they didn't win that title last year and didn't cost us the national championship in 2015 by forcing us and AZ/KY to play too early.

But seriously, there's maybe 5 teams in America who are worse matchups for Nova. We should have been a 5-6, and if we shoot as well as we did today, we are more like a 2. And that's a 2 with the height to give trouble to Nova and some great perimeter defenders.

I'd call 40.

You have to.

You can't let those 4 possessions play out the way they did.

NOT correctly calling those had a huge impact on the game.

I can't prove it, but I think it would have been an intentional if that Ark game wasn't in the news this weekend

and this is why I don't like about the game... Those types of fouls are so inconsistently called or not called.. Through the entire game... One play, called, the next time down floor not...

 

[jontaejones]

This sucks my balls...

But honestly, it's hard for me to complain. We won it all last year, and I never expected that was possible for a school like Villanova.

You lost in 2015 because your guards thought they were better players than the actual best players on the team in the 2nd half of that game.

It's the exact same reason you beat that loaded kentucky squad. The Harrisons thought they were the best players on the team when they were like 6th and 7th at best.

You are a northeast guy. You have to be young, because that was basically the style of play for 15 years. Brutally physical hoops

That's just bad officiating. Plain and simple.

You can't let that happen to airborne shooters though.

Can't happen.
