Arky just got away with another tech or warning prior to tech by playing defense out of bounds after that made basket. #5 should have been whistled…can’t reach out of bounds
:lol: :lol: :lol:
With the game tied.
Kentucky gets a 5-point possession on six free throws.

So Please, FFS, STFU about Kentucky getting cheated.

So you've got a bunch of fans who wouldn't piss on Kentucky if they were on fire all agreeing they're getting hosed.

What does that tell you?
They dont know ball, and see Arkansas as a much bigger threat than Kentucky

There has only been one bad call against Kentucky this entire game.
They're literally hosing Arkansas right now.

Pope should get ejected at this point. This is the worst officiating I've seen in a long time. Even the announcers are baffled.

The announcers have been rooting for Kentucky since tip off

Is there a worse team in the world in close games than Oklahoma?
If by "in the world" you mean across all sports, then the answer is Arkansas football.

Did I miss the other semifinal game?

Every thread is Indiana will kill Miami, or vice versa.

Whoever wins tomorrow, will be the national champ, but I don't think an Indiana win is a foregone conclusion.
Alabama is no litmus test any longer. Nor is the SEC.

Oregon is a much better team from a much tougher conference than Alabama. And they have already played Oregon close once. So tough to beat a team twice.

Well, you're better than the best SEC team, but lately that ain't saying much.
You can't beat either team in the other semifinal. May as well accept that now, it'll be easier on you next week.

The National Champion

Will be settled in tomorrow's semifinal

Neither team tonight has any chance of beating either Big10 team.
No matter who wins tomorrow, the title game won't be close.
I'm an Arkansas fan, not an SEC fan. frick all you cheating bastards.

All I'm saying is that was pretty borderline for a Hail Mary. And that defender was doing a little bit more than hand fighting. He was holding on

So was the receiver. The only person with any chance of making that catch in bounds was the defender, and the received pulled him down by a handful of jersey.
If they played 10 times, Miami would win 9 by average of 21 points.

Ole Miss was hanging on for dear life the first three quarters.
Miami stupidity and brick handed defenders are the only things that kept it close enough for Ole Miss to have a chance.

re: That was PI on the last play

Yea. Offensive PI.
It would've been an interception if receiver hadn't grabbed defenders jersey.

Two seasons ago the cheatingest team in history won it.
So only last year and this of legit NO SEC champion.
And what happened again, two years ago?
Oh yeah, the soft arse Big12 put two teams in the league and drug it down.
And that was against New Orleans High, which had no business being there.

The SEC is soft as shite. The league's premier team hired a Pac12 coach, and the league has become the new PAC12

re: That's a catch by Toney, by rule.

The announcers did a poor job explaining. If any part of the foot hits out of bounds, it’s out.

That's actually not the rule. Here's how stupid the rule is.
If the receiver is going out of bounds backwards, and his toe comes down before the heel, it's considered a catch.
But if he's going out of backs forwards, and his heel comes down inbounds before the toe is out of bounds, it's considered incomplete.

The rules for what constitutes a catch are among the stupidest, most incomprehensible rules in all of sports.

Not even close

It was close, and it was obvious toe was down before heel. If you disagree, you have a bias you can't overcome.
