BYU Basketball 24-25-Bring out the Jelly!

[Jeff Lebowski]

I seriously didn't see a single neutral fan think it was.

Vehemently disagree with this take and the analyst who shared that same opinion. During live action, I didn't think it was a foul. When they showed the replay from the baseline, though, Saunders was clearly and significantly displaced by the defender's body, which is why Richie went flying toward the baseline (and probably why the shot wasn't even close). Clearly a foul. Not controversial.

I watched the replay a ton of times, so I'm also going to completey disagree with you. It was a bad call. I can't imagine a single BYU fan that wouldn't be upset if the roles were reversed. We're happy because we won. In no world was that a foul. I seriously didn't see a single neutral fan think it was.

Pelado bringing it strong.

Damn straight.

[myboynoah]

He’s being … reasonable, in his own way. I hope he’s okay.

I'm concerned for him.

Pelado is correct. Look at this angle.

Yeah, seems like a foul that could be called, especially given all the fouls they gave to Love in the preceding 90 seconds.

That foul call on Keita was straight garbage (unless there was something from a different angle, which seems highly improbable). And, as you point out, there were much softer foul calls that went in Arizona's favor, especially toward the end of the game. McKale Center not used to experiencing losses, but have lost at least the last two when BYU comes to town.

Incredible game overall. My whole body was tense for at least the last several minutes of game play. Back and forth, haymaker after haymaker. BYU built the late four point lead, Love hits a 3. Hall misses the front end, Love gets 2 from the line as Arizona reclaims the lead. Saunders draws the foul and succeeds where Dallin had failed. Richie closes it out with the steal and smartly heaving it up to avoid the clock stopping with a foul.

Lots of great contributions to the win, including from Catchings. Would be great if he continues to find his groove.

This feels amazing.

Agreed on that call against Keba. I was shouting verticality with my arms up. My wife looked over and was very confused.

Upon hearing my reaction to that BS call, my daughter paused her video game, removed her headphones, and asked what was wrong.

BYU gets a huge controversial whistle late in the game and beats Arizona by 1. For the most part I thought this was a pretty decently called game, but I would be livid if that last call that bailed out Saunders was called on us in that situation. Just a horrible call and I hate to win that way, but it is what it is.

I don't feel even a little bad about the foul call on Saunders's last shot. Love was at the free throw line way too many times. In the second half 4 or 6 of his FT points came on really questionable calls, in particular the one where Keba jumped straight up and Love jumped into his body at the rim. Live by the questionable foul call, die by the questionable foul call.

What a win!
