@jayballer54 I don’t think it is wrong, just not absolute. The play by play shows that Minnesota in the last 10:50 attempted 4 layups, 6 3-ptrs, and 9 other jumpers. Alabama committed fouls on two shots in the last seconds of the game where the type of shot is not revealed. There was that layup you mentioned, which occurred after the game got close. But they went almost 10 minutes without fouling as Minnesota attempted jumper after jumper.
The layup you mentioned seemed to have ended the Minnesota outside shot brigade that did leave the game closer than it might have been.
I watched a highlight that showed Alabama playing the traditional Triangle-Without-The-Other-Two zone defense. Minnesota had all five guys outside the 3 circle, and was just shooting from out there without anyone on either team moving much.
