Wasnât even sure theyâd let him play today
It was fugly.
Sasser looking pretty iffy, and Shead hobbling pretty good too. Auburn essentially playing at home. Cougars gonna have a tough time tomorrow.
Media all over Sampson for playing Sasser against a 16 seed.
Iâve read some of that. He said he left it up to Sasser and the trainers, who said he could go. I donât know if thatâs typical for Sampson or not, but he certainly set himself up for the criticism. Of course, turns out that 16-seed game them more than anyone thought they would.
Essentially playing at home if they had a large contingent of our biggest rivals fans in the arena ever home game.
I agree it is an advantage but not as big as you might think. It was probably bigger last night than it will be Saturday just due to the fact that Bama wasnât back to back with them.
Barkley says Bama fans will be pulling for Auburn but I disagree. Auburn took them to overtime in Tuscaloosa a month ago. I think they would rather play a hobbled Houston team than play Auburn for the 3rd time this year. Either way, if they win Saturday, Bama will be playing a team out for revenge.
Uhhhhhhh, Purdue.

Thoughts and prayers for tempe normal school in their time of loss.
Suck it, sparky.
RE-PEAT-ED ref bailouts are magical.
Memphis got denied a timeout that would have quite possibly preserved their victory. Instead they lose by 1 point, when the ref ignores the frantic time out requests by multiple players, hesitates, and then calls a tie ball giving possession to FAU under their goal with 5 seconds left. Credit to FAU for making the basket
Well â Half my final four is gone with Purdueâs loss. Most of my other losses were picked to lose in the second round, but unless Texas & Kansas go through, I am in pretty poor shape.
I saw the refs calling simultaneous possession right away. Players were trying to call timeout, but they didnât possess the ball.

Thatâs how I saw it as well. You canât have a timeout while the ball is tied up.
I prefer the referees call the jump ball when itâs close. I hate the timeout in that situation

Me too. I assume there are defined mechanics for referees, and Iâm guessing establishing possession is first before granting a time out. I thought it was a good call, and nothing controversial about it.
