NCAA Sweet Sixteen Games for Fri March 29

[SWC75]

I hope they got a GIF of that kid.

 

[SouthernCuse]

How do you bounce it off a guy who is out of bounds and get the call?

 

[UpstateSM]

Clown show from the refs in Detroit

 

[llandz]

That girl will be the next crying child meme.

 

[Cheriehoop]

How do you bounce it off a guy who is out of bounds and get the call?

Exact question I was going to ask. Second time in the tournament I’ve seen a player falling out of bounds with the ball, throw it off an opponent who is out of bounds and get the call. Is this a new rule?

 

[UpstateSM]

Houston deserved better. Sad way to go out.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Houston, my bracket has a problem.

 

[phil77]

ACC - 3 teams

Houston deserved better. Sad way to go out.

Goodnight Houston

 

[llandz]

Wow. That awful ACC showing up again. Just a terrible conference this year.

 

[SWC75]

Three ACC teams made the Elite 8. Two of them have to play each other but that guarantees and ACC team in the Final Four. "Yeah, we bad..."

 

[llandz]

I want NC State. Will be fun to go see them at pracrtice here.

 

[llandz]

Feel bad for the injured Houston player.

 

[dwilmont44]

Duke got that UConn path

 

[llandz]

Houston, my bracket has a problem.

Mine too. But I had them losing the next round. Of course it was not supposed to be NC State. But at this point, maybe NC State is the team to worry about all the way.

 

[blust2i3d4]

ACC - 3 teams

Surviving rate:
ACC 60%
Big East 33%
B1G 33%
SEC 25%
Big 12 0%
Mountain West 0%

 

[SWC75]

Big 12 gone. All 9.

 

[PoppyHart]

Rick Barnes might be the most under-appreciated MCBB coach in the modern era.

 

[Cuse99&01]

A lot of Orange in the elite 8 (Clemson, Tennessee, Illini). Too bad Cuse didn’t get the memo

 

[Charbroil]

Does he feel bad that possibly four ACC teams were left out? How many players never had the chance to play in the tournament this year because of a trash cheating NET and crap Committee

Please stop.

 

[Orangefan1]

Please stop.

Of course I don’t want players to be hurt I’m just pissed at the committee for not allowing the best teams in this year. I apologize here because I was clearly out of line.

 

[PeteCalvin]

Rick Barnes might be the most under-appreciated MCBB coach in the modern era.

Most certainly is.

Been wondering, did he develop the really thick accent coaching in Texas all those seasons? I don’t remember Barnes sounding like that when he was at Providence all those years ago.

It seems like the right call to me. Even if the other guy is standing "out of bounds" he is one of the 10 players on the floor and actively in the play, and he was the last player to touch the ball before it landed out of bounds.

Seems pretty clear to me, but maybe I'm missing something.

It you throw the ball off an out of bounds player while you are in bounds or in the air from an in bounds take off .. it’s your ball .

So we agree. Whether you throw the ball at that OB player while you are standing in bounds, or while you are leaping while OB, the concept is the same in my eyes.
