Forget the prozac. In honor of the good Saint Patrick,Slayer of Wolves try a little Tyrconnell single malt Irish. 2 before game time is the recommended dosage.

Seeing the ND players cry on the bench is the second best thing that has happened all day. Outstanding.

Big choke job by ND with some interesting officiating at the end. Horrible ending to what had been a pretty entertaining game.

feel so bad for Jerian Grant, but it was the right call. Cant go into the lane until the ball hits the rim from behind the FT line...In the NBA, its on the release.

Plus, I root for all BE teams except 'Cuse/Pitt/WVU and to lose the game on a lane violation followed by an intentional foul is a tough, tough break.

I despise ND more than anything else in the world. Their failure makes me very happy.

I agree it is in the rules, but it is horrible to see two teams play as hard as they did and then have the game decided by something that had no effect on the play going on.

The refs can certainly handle the lane violations a little better than they have. Yes, it's the "right" call, but considering the two times they called it didn't give the violating player any advantage it would be better to warn them and call it again if it's violated. To make such game changing calls on such a minor violation in kind of absurd. Especially since the same violations are most likely happening the whole game and they aren't enforcing it fully.

Technically correct -- the best kind of correct! If Georgetown's season ended on a call like that, not everything would be intact in my room.

Agreed - this may be the 'letter of the law' but it's the worst sort of refereeing.

Dana O'Neil just tweeted: "Can honestly say never saw that call in my memory." I honestly can't remember ever seeing that call either.
Note to JT3 - Remind the players about the lane violation. Please.

Agreed - this may be the 'letter of the law' but it's the worst sort of refereeing. Charles Barkley agrees. Also, in ND's case he hit the shot so it didn't matter -- harmless error, if you will. The call made more sense in the UNC-A game if only because the guy who committed the violation rebounded the miss. Just a crappy end for ND (though the writing was on the wall when they threw it away a couple of plays earlier).

There was a third instance of the same call in another game yesterday, but I can't recall which game. I haven't seen that called in years, if ever. Then three times in two days? It doesnt add up. I wouldn't be surprised if the refs have some secret pool they are playing.

Who looks more sour, Hypokritzki or the missus? How come the party line is that there's parity in college ball? What about the choke job of a coach with a roster of 7 or so McD AA's? Dukie V. all flustered in Sportscenter was specccial, babyyyyyy!!
