After getting away with an egregious offensive foul…
Great play drawn up by Houston, bonehead move leaving the inbounder.
Maybe, also maybe a flop. My biggest issue is the ball went out of bounds off of Houston.
Well congratulations @AuHoosier420. Game was closer than the final score indicated. Auburn went on an absolute tear after Pearl called TO when we went ahead by 6 with around 12 minutes left.
That hurts. Loved the effort from this team.
Braden Smith with 15 assists (11 in the second half) against the best D the nation. Dude is a special passer.

It was a specific play designed to take advantage of how Purdue defends inbounds. Great job by Sampson, but leaving the inbounder was by design, the other guys didn't execute properly.

Ugh. Can’t sleep. That game was exhausting but I’m still trying to come down from the surge of adrenaline. Have to get up in a few hours to play golf.
Lol that’s a textbook charge. Arm fully extended on the push-off. Doesn’t matter if he flopped.
Caught a fish this week3md. He didn't flop that bad. And he had a hook in his fukkn mouth
Would be hilarious if none make it.
yep. I dont need to see Auburn play Danny Wolfe again. He had great games against us both years in the tourney
As soon as I read that, I knew your intent. We’ve been at this far too long.
My man. Tough one tonight. Dudes battled. As .Paint teams always do.
Would be of no surprise.
Two #1 seeds. And two #2
Top of conference was really good.
Definitely not a UConn elite 8 scenario.
Huh? In regional, UCONN bracket had.a 1, 2, 3 and a 5 seed, last year. Who cares who's in rhe other region.
Ftr, Uconn beat a 4 and a 1 for.the title.
uconn has won 3 national games in which they played two 8 seeds and one 5 seed
As I’ve said multiple times, we got a couple of breaks in the first half. Unfortunately, Houston got pretty much all of them late. It’s basketball. Officials aren’t perfect. That’s why I’d like to give coaches a couple of challenges a game to force the officials to look at clear mistakes. Tough to implement but we do it in other sports.
So I'm not an expert. But it does seem Cal is a great recruiter and talent manager. But not a great Xs and Os guy. Almost the opposite of like Coach Knight.
I have no idea why they had Wagner taking last shots when Davis was the hot hand.
Yes, you are absolutely correct, officials aren’t perfect, they are like us, just people that do make mistakes in the fast pace of the game, but why not have replay to a certain limit.
