ArchMadness!!!! That is all one can say! CU blows a 20 point lead, but hits a shot at the buzzer! WSU has to be kicking themselves for not grabbing the ball with 2 seconds left.

Re: Wsu/cu
Yeah, a Shocker had the defensive rebound hit him square in the hands and somehow he lost it out of bounds. Then the Jays get the longest 1.9 seconds ever for that last shot. The Jays don't deserve breaks like that. -
Re: Wsu/cu
Bottom line...get into CU's heads and you have them. P'Allen is a P'Head Case. He folded like a cheap suit down the stretch last night.Comment

Re: Wsu/cu
A number of us in the area thought the clock didn't start on time. However, I'm sure the worst officials reviewed that part of the replay. They were horrible in the ISU-DU game and almost as bad in the CU-WSU game.Comment

Re: Wsu/cu
I agree, initially, it looked as if the clock was off. But after watching on replay, it wasn't. Creighton just saved themselves at the end, fair and square. It's good for the Valley. We need them to win.Originally posted by FOTY View PostComment

Re: Wsu/cu
Check out Rosewood's post on page 2. Wow..there is alot of time and effort being put into this by Shocker fans. One guy did dozens of manual times to see if the shot got off and then gave a probability analysis.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.Comment

Re: Wsu/cu
Is the clock operator supposed to watch the ball, or watch the officials for the signal?Originally posted by Panthers to the Bone View Post
Because in that first video (where the WSU fan added a second clock), the clock on the left starts while the one officials hand is still up (and the other official's arm had just started going down).
Anyway, I do think the clock was maybe half a second slow in starting, but the shot is away with 0.8 seconds showing on the official clock, and I don't think it was THAT slow in starting.Comment

Re: Wsu/cu
All that and $5.00 will get them a happy meal at the arches - sounds like they need a lift.
All of the aluminum foil in the world (wrapped around their collective skulls) ain't gonna change the outcome.Comment

Re: Wsu/cu
The official starts the clock, not what the operator sees...and generally they allow a 1 second delay in getting it started....so 2 seconds on the clock means you can have up to 3 seconds to get the shot off.Originally posted by JayJ79 View PostComment

Re: Wsu/cu
The St. Louis Dispach said that the officials determined there would have been .4 seconds left when the shot went up if the clock started on time, however, from my and about 4 other guys opinions there is no way that shot should have counted...but we all hate CU with a passion so we may be flawed.Comment

Re: Wsu/cu
FSN's angle doesn't do a good job of showing when Woodfox first touched the ball. If you start the clock when you first see the ball in his hands, then the shot is probably good. But he actually first touches the ball down low near the floor then pulls it up over his head, making the play take at least 2 seconds.
When watching that play live, I had the same reaction. I couldnt believe how long the play took and why the buzzer didnt go off sooner.Comment

Re: Wsu/cu
Can it get any better than to have WSU and CU have a reason to hate each other more? WSU fans are so dilusional, though, that they think that if they would have won that game they were a lock for "some sort of post-season play" due to a plus .500 record vs. D1. Gotta love 'em...they make the MVC more fun. Kind of like that crazy uncle that "entertains" you during Thanksgiving dinner once a year.Comment
