Auburn got robbed big time.

Disgusting to lose that way.

Freaking joke

Highway robbery

My bracket did too.

I have MSU winning it all and I’m in first. I doubt anyone had Auburn or Tech in the title game/winning.

Such a simple call too.

If Okeke doesn't get hurt we win he would have been more than a 2 point factor on both sides of the court.

It just wasn't meant to be.
It's pretty amazing what they did without their best player in these last couple of games. No shame

Sucks for Auburn but yeah, that was a clear foul that impacted the shot. Can't hate the ref for calling that.
That Guy kid made 3 free throws in a row in THAT situation?

Probably one of the most clutch performances I've seen in sports.

Play should have never happened.

Clear double dribble on UVA on the play before.

Sad that refs in all sports are always fucking teams over.

No doubt, but once it happened auburn still was in position to win. However, the repeated the same mistake that should’ve lost them the New Mexico State game

You can't call that foul with 0.5 left. Sure, it might be a foul during most of the game but that gets called maybe 1/100 times with time running out.

He still hadn't released the ball when the guy started making contact down low. That was a clear foul and should be called any point of the game. If he made contact after the shot was off then I'd have something to say about it.

Bad miss on the no call on the double dribble.

It was definitely foul on the 3 in the end. You can’t hit him I n body before releasing shot. Defending jumped into the offensive players body and didn’t give him place to land.


Hell of an effort at end by Auburn coming back from 10 down with 5 left especially without having Okeke for game.

We can hate the ref for missing a double dribble though

Auburn got away with a blatant travel on a breakaway earlier in the game. Both teams benefited from bad/non-calls. But Virginia benefited at the end when emotions were high, so you think it should mean more. :noidea:

Gene Steretore's explanation left a lot to be desired: "they didn't call it because it's unusual..."

Virginia benefited when it directly decided the game.

That was more so his half assed reasoning to defend why it wasn’t noticed.

Bad miss.

That's clear. The point is you typically need to get mugged inside of 5 seconds to get that call. I thought it wasn't enough based on that.

He just barely bumped him with his stomach, was a good no call, the shooter leaned his way also, in an attempt to draw the foul...
Shooter went straight up, he didn’t lean in at all.
