Are you talking the blocked dunk? No way. I wanted UCLA to win but that wasnt a foul at all.
Hes wearing his red honking nose and flower that squirts water right now.

The above the Rim angle showed it was. Even the announce team rooting for Gonzaga walked it back after seeing that view

Tough loss for ucla, Suggs looked like he travelled too but that shot was sweet. Ucla blew the regulation ending too. Guy was waiting in the lane for a bit, should have pulled up for a quick easy 8-10 footer for the win.

he hit his wrist. That’s what he hit
That isn’t hacking the shit out of him. You think he glanced his wrist then ok. It looked clean to me, the announcers and seemingly some other folks on here. Not a hack the shit out of him

Suggs hacked the shit out of Riley near the end of regulation. Gonzaga turned that into a fast break basket.

Huge swing that cost them the game

I've seen a lot of people claim it was an obvious foul. I sure don't see it that way, the clip below hardly can be described as "hack the shit out of Riley". It was a glancing blow to the wrist, surely not "all wrist" as it was mostly ball. I can see a call there but I can also see a no-call

Just think how good he could've been if he stayed home to play at powerhouse minnesota... .
You do remember that Minnesota beat Michigan, Iowa, Ohio St and Purdue, 3 Top 10 teams and all 4 in the Top 25, WITHOUT Suggs, right? Granted they may have ended up to be a tad overrated, but that wouldn't have changed their seeding as it only became known to most that the B1G was overrated after the fact. So he may have done quite well at Minnesota?! Could have shared a backcourt with Marcus Carr and Gabe Kalscheur. Could have made a huge impact on UMn's season? Minnesota was only 2 or 3 wins out of making the tourney, 4-5 wins out of getting a really good seed. Had our big guy simply remained healthy, the Gopher lineup with the big guy healthy and Suggs added to the backfield would have been quite formidable.

He gets the arm, which causes the rim to stop Riley.

What was the missed call?

Incredible effort by UCLA. Had a great chance to win at the end of regulation with Juzang. After seeing UCLA hang this close, I think I like Baylor on Monday night. They'll attack Timme and get him in foul trouble.

I actually like Gonzaga better after that game. UCLA played about as good as you can hope for. Shot almost 50% from 3, every player shot 50% or better, they were better at the free throw line, better on the boards, they burned the shot clock on every possession and were draining 17 footers all night like they were playing in the NBA, and Gonzaga still won. I know you can't believe everything you read on the internet, but I saw a stat that said this was the highest combined shooting percentage in an NCAA game since Nova/Georgetown in 1985, so take that for what it's worth. For Gonzaga to go up against that for 45 minutes and still come out on top almost gives them a team of destiny type feeling. But we'll see what happens on Monday.

That’s how I saw it. Very close call. After watching it on replay a couple times, I wasn’t even sure if it was a foul or not. I certainly won’t blame a ref who had to make the decision in real speed

The clip I posted does not support your claim. It just doesn't. Watch it again, from every angle it's 90% ball.
