Too bad for Xavier. That would have been a terrific upset. And yes, Oden got away with one.

Any suggestion otherwise by Xavier or it's fans is sour grapes. |

Bottom line is if the Xavier player hits both FTs, the game is over. Props to OSU for doing what had to be done to advance.

Did I mention I love the tournament? There's nothing like watching a perfectly-arced game-tying three to send a game into overtime.
I was hoping Xavier would pull it out, in spite of the fact that they stole Drew Lavendar from Oklahoma. |

It was a fun game to watch. The only consolation to my Utes having such a bad year is that there is no emotional investment in the Big Dance.

It's been my understanding that if a guy isn't making a play on the ball and blatantly hits, shoves, pushes, hacks...etc....that it's a flagrant foul.

There's no way I'd have called a flagrant foul there. Everybody knows they had to foul as quickly as possible once he got that rebound. I don't think he was trying to send him across the floor. It would have been a wussy way to win had they called that. And FWIW, I was rooting for Xavier.
