MD is still a tournament team if they aren't very lucky. But a 6-7 seed. A team that is Top 25-30 in the country. Not top 10.

Pretty great when stuff like this happens. Ram is fun to watch defensively. http://m.espn.go.com...}&ex_cid=espnFB

The Os of 2012 were good by the end of the year. The 2 months they were legit after being very lucky the first half if the year. This MD team has been lucky all year. They haven't really improved.

Their one of the best teams in the country from the line. That's like having a killer bullpen which the Os had all year in 2012. And now they have Wells healthy and Melo playing at a high level. That's not really luck.

Yeah when you pull the close ones out that often it's no longer just luck. They are skilled at closing out games because of their style. They know how to shorten the game and secure the tight wins with little regard for margin of victory.

That doesn't mean they are good. Again, a team ranked 25-30 in the country. Not top 10.

He arguably fouled him on a desperation 3 to tie the game.

There is no arguable about it, dude straight up hacked his arms as he went up for the shot. Luckily we got a nice no call. With as badly as the refs tried to screw us yesterday, I'm not complaining. But if I were a Valpo fan, I'd be a little upset.

[bnickle]

Yeah, amazing how the perception of that play and the decision to put him in changes because of one no call. Horrible decision to slap at that ball.

I thought the refs hated MD?

Now now. I'm the hypocrite and troll around these parts.

"I only troll md when I get attacked first! Wahhhhh!"

Just making the point...you guys got a call, so let's not assume that every ref is out to get MD.

The call against Dodd was a complete joke..but the no call here was pretty awful too.

[bnickle]

Hand is part of the ball. It may not have been a bad no call. Hard to tell for sure. It just looks bad when you slap like that.

After the game, Turgeon said that Ram was supposed to foul in that situation.

Ram completely messed up but it works out in the end.

You just said he arguably fouled him.

You don't slap at a guy falling away on that shot. Apparently, he was supposed to foul and put them on the line too.

I hope he meant Ram was supposed to foul before the guy was in the act of shooting a 3, or else that is a horrible coaching decision.
