Hope so. I don’t want the kiss-of-death 8 or 9 seed. That’d put Tigers against a 10 seed.

Great win....with that closing lineup, we can beat anybody. Just got to be in the game with 5 minutes to play...

The call that fouled out Williams was not there.
Again Ike believes they should never ref another game, well maybe a church league, IKE's sure smu feels the same way. The Dudes we had last nite were great, hope they ref tomorrow, they simply let the teams play.
The fans don't come to watch the refs.

It was horrible. The 3 worst officiated games of the year seemed to all be the smu games

That 'll happen when you teach your players to take dives and flop.

The refs weren’t good overall
However, we were called for a total of 19 fouls which is below our season average. We average over 20 fouls a game.
SMU got called for 20 fouls - couple of them towards the end was to stop the clock. But we reached the bonus a minute after they reached the bonus in the second half. There were missed calls and bad calls both ways IMO

The refs were bad more so than biased.
There were some levels of contact that would be 15-yarders on the football field, that didn't draw a whistle...then they called the fouls on the slight bumps.

This is the type of game where players get hurt because the game is allowed to be too physical.

Yup…definitely bad refs overall. Called some ticky tack fouls both ways and allowed a lot of physical play that should have been fouls. Imagine if they called everything though…game would have slowed to a crawl.

Davis was nt all comfortable troughout the night-good strategy by the coaches and great execution by Lomax and the team to double team and trap him on coupke of occassions.

Lomax held him to 7 points under his scoring average.

Yep, plus the team would get an extra day to prepare and rest.

Officiating was so bad they even had to restrain Lomax at the end.. He was about to lose it LOL

With the way the tournaments have played out I think weee playing for a 6 seed tomorrow…jmo lose and we’re an 8 or 9.

Will they really factor it in 1 hour before the selection show?

idk

Lets hope

Of course even if we do win. We could well lose

I would love to see us somehow sneak into a 6 seed. Historically, a 6 has been a sweet spot for us:

1 seed - 2 times 8-2
2 seed - 4 times 10-4
3 seed - 1 time 1-1
4 seed - 1 time 1-1
5 seed - 2 times 0-2
6 seed - 4 times 8-4
7 seed - 2 times 1-2
8 seed - 2 times 1-2
9 seed - 1 time 1-1
10 seed - 1 time 0-1
11 seed - has never happened
12 seed - 1 time 0-1

Of course they will. They have different brackets accounting for late game results.

This is the exactly it. Wasn’t biased just bad and the things that should have been called weren’t - other calls were just head scratchers

I agree, i think this win puts us in as the 7 seed.

I think they may have us with a 6 with the intention of flipping us to a 5 if we win or a 7 if we lose. They have those scenarios baked in so that they dont require additional time after the game to do it.

.
I thought Quinones 3-pointer with 4:35 left was the turning point of the game.

Lester hits a long 3-pointer to break the tie
