Villanova lost because they had no size and were playing with a 7 man rotation all year, 4 of which are guards.

West Virginia lost because Bob Huggins is incapable of recruiting anybody who actually knows a single offensive fundamental of the game of basketball.

Well, atleast he recruits guys who can read now.

Never had a single player gradgitate from Cincy.

I thought dribbling out the clock was a bad idea for WVU.


Seeing as they were behind.

Every team has been robbed by the officials during this tournament at some point. It's been terrible... But that's not why these two teams lost

That last possession by WVU was the single-worst possession (at least at the end of a game) that I've ever seen in my life.

Take a terrible 3, get the rebound
Take another terrible 3, get another rebound
Waste the last 10-15 seconds just dribbling (After about 20-25 seconds have already been used mind you)
Pass the ball with a second left
Attempt to shoot another bad 3 but not even get it off because the pass was so late.

Flat. Out. AWFUL.

100% agreed. I was in awe of the abject incompetence of it all. what a godawful way to "close out" a game after playing so hard, for pretty much the entire game, to that point.

There are reasons they struggled, most notably Wisky's size, but it's an indisputable fact that Hart was fouled on 4 straight drives and only got one call.

You get those right, Nova moves on. Period.

That doesn't even get into the officials not knowing the rules about flagrants.

strongly disagree. You get that obvious foul on Adrian's layup last night, and the Zags go home.

Nova got cheated on multiple drives that should've resulted in FTs, and Hayes being fouled out of the game (so he doesn't even get a chance at his drive).

there are other factors, but this is the primary one.

Both were beaten by the better team. Only losers complain about the refs.

Didn't see they were robbed by any means. Doesn't change the fact every team has been screwed by the officiating throughout this tournament
