March 19, 20188 yr (NCAA Round 2) Final Xavier was up 12 with 10 minutes to play. I wonder how many Cincinnati fans stayed for their karma. lol Happy for Lenard Hamilton x UK assistant.
March 19, 20188 yr This was a dark, dark day for the city of Cincinnati. Most days are when it comes to sports.
March 19, 20188 yr In my opinion, poor officiating played a big part in the losses by the two Cincinnati teams tonight.
March 19, 20188 yr In my opinion, poor officiating played a big part in the losses by the two Cincinnati teams tonight. Certainly a part of it. Pretty weak charge call that took Macura out of the game. Also put some of this on Mack. Why did they come out of that last timeout in the aggressive trap defense that gave FSU the two free throws to go up 3 with just 21 seconds left? There was plenty of time to play defense. And in the end, just a terrible time for Blueitt to have a rough game. It happens, but you hate to see it happen at this stage in the season.
March 19, 20188 yr Interesting tournament. SEVERAL didn’t think that Florida State involved. The mediocre ACC teams have looked outstanding so far.
March 19, 20188 yr Xavier didn't help themselves at all, but that charge call on Macura was ridiculous.
March 19, 20188 yr In my opinion, poor officiating played a big part in the losses by the two Cincinnati teams tonight. Giving up those kind of 2nd half leads does not fall on the officials.
March 19, 20188 yr Xavier didn't help themselves at all, but that charge call on Macura was ridiculous. Guy slid right under him. Didn’t even look close to me. The announcers can call it a “bang-bang” play all they want, but sliding underneath a leaping shooter is exactly the type of thing we should be trying to throw out of the game, not reward with an offensive foul call.

If he was going to do that he shouldn’t have wasted that much time obviously. Bad decisions.
March 19, 20188 yr Indeed. Makes it even more infuriating that Louisville didn’t get in. .500 teams making the regional semifinals all over the place.
