Culver screwed up on that one. He really didn't have a very good Final Four showing.

You have to count the deflections, because they are so often done strategically, people bouncing the ball off others and such. If you get into reading intent things get real muddy. Stick with the rule as it is.

Everyone talks about how Virginia was down late in the game before coming back to win, but Virginia was up in the last 4 minutes in their last 3 games before squandering leads and having to comeback late.

as a UVA alum i fully recognize this fact plus the missed call against Auburn. however based on their overall performance especially in the ACC over the past season or three, i think they deserve the title. and pulling out those last minute wins required a lot of poise under pressure which is befitting of a champion.

Love the Virginia/UVa 2018/19 story.

I can see a lot of things. But I disagree when you said Clark flopped. I believe that it was an offensive foul. His feet were planted and everything and Tech rams through him.

This is a very tough one and definitely not black and white. Clark was definitely in position but you can argue that he vacated his position by flopping or you can argue that Culver made contact with him and it should have been a charge anyway. Put the top 25 NCAA refs in that situation and I'd guess 15 would call the charge. Nunn would probably guess 10.

Guy was clearly calling for a timeout, and yet the referee, who was just 2 feet away completely ignored guy’ signal for a timeout! I truly believe that Texas Tech was the toughest team to play against in the tournament, after seeing snippets on how they dismantled a vaulted Michigan team ; But Virginia made the smart plays ; It was a case of brain against brawn. The mental breakdown on Texas Tech part, at the end of the game for allowing the three , sapped their mental focus and energy!

Respectfully disagree with the ref guy's view on the last call reviewed, in this game, by the refs. Defensive players, even in the NBA, knock the ball off the offensive player's leg or body all the time; who is say Hunter didn't purposely knock the ball back into the offensive players hand and out of bounds?

Pretty easy.... Texas Tech player was to far under the rim, and never jumped. Contact is fine, Hunter jumped, and snatched the ball.

I'd say UNC vs. Villanova is a better recent championship game because the two final crazy shots happened back to back. It was mental. And even before that the entire last minute and a half was back in forth.

Thanks for pointing out that it was Francis's responsibility to cover Hunter there, and that it wasn't Culver's fault that Hunter was so wide open. So many people blamed Culver for what ultimately doesn't seem to be his mistake.

I can't remember a basketball game that wen the total opposite of the pace/style hat i thought it would go. I figured it would be 63-60 with UVA winning in a great grind out game. But this went to OT, with great offense form the team's star players. And the various swings in the game were amazing as well. You never knew who was going to win until the last part of the game.

All that reffing guy did was make excuses for the ref, sure you don’t get all the calls right. Maybe one wrong is okay but it seemed like there were too many missed calls in such an important game

With 1 second left in regulation Texas Tech should've run that play where they pretend to go for the lob, fake missing catching it, then after it hits the backboard lay the rebound in. I fully expected that they would run that, in that situation, and still unclear why they didn't.

STOP reviewing deflections. The game has always been called that possession is awarded instead of wimpy fouls.

For whatever reason Culver was cold that night wasn't hitting his shots that's the best player for Texas Tech if he had been on his normal game chances are it would have been a different outcome. Also Owens one of Tech's best shot blockers injured his foot the game before and wasn't 100% and didn't play the minutes he usually played. I believe Texas Tech is still the better team overall just had some bad luck and wasn't the best team that night.

As a Texas Tech alumn, I can honestly say that Culver was almost a liability in the tournament. I love the kid, but the hype on him was way too much. This is the opposite of what Tech players usually get (Wes Welker, Danny Amendola, Darvin Ham, Zach Thomas, Zhaire Smith, Sheryl Swoopes). The only real complaint I have with the reffing was the trip that went against us. All of the jump-ball calls...those are judgement calls that 50% are going to be happy with, and 50% are going to be mad. Sports. It was an amazing season for Tech, one I'll never forget. I lived in Virginia for a few years, so I also like and respect UVA. If we lose to a team in such a monumental game, I'd want it to be a school like UVA. I honestly think they were they better team, by a hair. And that's what the final score indicates. Congratulations UVA, and Congratulations to a terrific Texas Tech squad.

The ref guy should do his own breakdown series.

Great breakdown, coach, but you missed the elephant in the room on the controversial call with 1_09 left in OT (14:13). Virginia (Guy) fouls Texas Tech (Moretti) as the Tech player is gathering the loose ball. As a result the Tech player is unable to gather the loose ball and continues to chase leading to the controversial out-of-bounds replay overturn. That first foul should have been called, Tech ball. The referees, especially at the bottom of the screen are woefully behind the play (gotta get guys who can _RUN_ for 40+ minutes) and hold their whistle. Ronnie is correct on opportunity to reassess the actual rules of the game on what we used to call "force outs".

Luck of Virginia

Coach Nick: "Ugh... UVA won a championship. I don't like that --> Ooh! I know! Let me find a random referee who agrees with everything I say to make it seem UVA got all the calls by selecting very specific plays throughout the game that were very close that can debatably be construed as going UVA's way (while also conveniently ignoring all the similar 50/50 calls that went TTU's way). But gosh darnet we can't have it appear like UVA won the game on their own merits, even though literally no one questioned the officiating in this particular game." Come on man, I know you don't like UVA for... reasons, but do you have to be so blatently biased? The Auburn game? Okay, at least there is a case to be made with the double dribble thing. But this game? You're high. Edit: Except for the phantom tripping call -- that was a pretty shitty call.
