2019 Championship TTU v. UVA
-
Culver is the bees knees
-
Who woulda thunk that recruiting services got him so wrong
-
So, as long as all the tech players graduate and Beard takes a job at UCLA and Mahomes takes the chiefs to the Super Bowl victory … I’m OK with Tech winning
-
Don’t leave Guy open
-
Dumb shot
-
passed up an easy 2? wow. Elijah Johnson was ahead of his time
-
-
Well, neutral fans (and the network suits) can’t complain too much…they got a nail-biter down the stretch.
-
Hero ball
-
Tech thought they were defending us
-
get the italian guy the shot
-
OT
-
hottest team wins, unless someone suddenly gets sloppy with the ball, UVA.
-
Tech is great defensively but they lost their heads on that tying three. When the guard drove the lane the D collapsed on him leaving that guy wide open out there. Big mistake.
-
First OT since 2008. And how in the heck is that a rebounding foul on Culver?
-
Anybody but culver
-
Great spin
-
Culver needs to be the decoy at this point
-
Culver just layups
-
Did he walk?
-
WOW GUYS MATT MOONEY
-
hard headed irish kid, Mooney!
-
Officiating hasn’t been awful, but the controversial ones seem to be tilted in Virginia’s favor including that last one that I don’t even know what happened
-
Beard saving the TO
-
OH PLEASE. he hit it out of Morreti’s hand after he was already hacked.
-
BULL SHIT
-
These refs have become biased unfortunately ruining a great game.
-
Yeah that was bad
-
Didn’t look like enough to overturn. No change in the direction of the ball spin.
-
Game was tight before the usual ACC favoritism
-
That should have been an and 1 on that layup.
-
Culver should have drove it
-
Never should have gone to ot
-
Wonder what that guy who placed that $1500 bet on Tech at 200-to-1 is thinking. He could have cashed it in for $150k. Instead, he held out for the whole $300,000.
Those folks in Vegas must be taking a real deep breath right now…
-
@approxinfinity Glad (for you that) your (second) team won!
-
I want to vomit a little bit how they won. Reality no longer matters. There is only desired outcome and engineering to get there.
-
Virginia put themselves in position to win. But there is no excuse for that call against Moretti.
-
@approxinfinity I didn’t watch any of it; I’m not mad…yet. Lol
-
Watching Virginia these last 3 games really make me wonder once again if it all ain’t rigged. Each of those tight games had 2 or 3 questionable or flat out missed calls. All of those calls went Virginia’s way, you just don’t see that too often.

Tech had every opportunity to win. One non foul call (or not call for that matter) does not a game make. Tech was down double digits twice.
It was UVA’s night. Hunter was unbelievable. They absolutely were the better team tonight.
-
@Kcmatt7 I know I know. But it’s really uncomfortable when the refs overturn a call that they have no business overturning. That in my mind counts a whole lot more. Thats like taking a toy from a child and handing it to another child. It cuts deep.
There was also the foul on Culver when Hunter went over the back.

I’m waiting for Brigham Young to win the national title some year, so they can play “One Shining Mormon”…
G’night everybody, and don’t forget to tip your waiters !

Him and Zhaire Smith. Same class. 2 3 star lottery picks.

Anybody see one shining Zion?

So people really think these games are rigged ?? My god.

The replay of the Moretti ball out of bounds is a horrific use of replay in basketball. I knew this was eventually going to be a problem. Since the beginning of basketball officiating plays like that, which could be called a foul, isn’t and instead, possession is awarded. They’ve done this to keep fouls lower and to not call a meaningless non-shooting foul and just call it a knocked out of bounds play. Now with last minute replay, a play like this is going to go to the team that fouled if the ball “slides” off the offensive player.
This is a can of worms that is opened, and I don’t envy the refs having to deal with it.

Isn’t it obvious? The refs forced the ball off of his hand and also forced Hunter to drill a 3 and also forced UVA to throw the ball away on purpose to go to overtime.
If people want to say replay screwed Tech and want replay removed, sure. I get it.
But the ball did go off of Morretti even if it was a foul. Hunter did drill an ice cold 3. And Tech had their chance. It was a great game.

Basketball has always been officiated this way, with possession awarded instead of a cheap foul call. Replay is horrible in basketball except for stepping on the line calls.

No arguments. I prefer it not exist either.
