The officials did add .3 seconds back to the clock after their review, although Bilas had no idea why.
On a different note, I was surprised to see Tennessee is the 4 seed in the SEC tournament. The SEC must be really weak this year, outside of Florida.
The SEC is a putrid basketball conference. That league is Kentucky and Florida, and no one else. Every now and then you get a Tennessee or a Vandy with a decent team, but for the most part that is a two team conference. The A10, for example, is on pace for 6 bids.
I’m pretty sure beating Duke would punch our ticket. Our RPI would get into the 40’s if we did that.
Is it all about the RPI? It would be hard to believe though that a team that beat Pitt, Cuse and Duke down the stretch doesn’t get in. That is some serious work.
We’re basically in 7th position on the out list. Would a win over Duke move us up 7 spots?
^Sucks to be so dependent on what happens across the country, but let’s take a look:
Minnesota lost and cannot help themselves anymore – they look to be out.
Providence can seal the deal tomorrow in the Big East final, but may need to win anyway as a win over Seton Hall helped them little.
Xavier is losing to Creighton in the 2nd half.
We’ve got a long way to go.

Agree that it’s not all about rpi, more about scheduling and quality wins. We’ve got some tough losses, but good scheduling is helping our profile enough right now to help us get into the conversation.
I agree that a win over Duke would all but do it … At least it would give us a reason to be nervous on Sunday evening.
If all we care about is getting into the ncaa tourney, then all we have to do to guarantee it is to win the ACC tourney. “Just win, baby.” Then we can claim bragging rights as the rightful champs with an automatic bid to the big dance.
I’m just not sure a win over Duke moves us up 7 spots. Maybe five. Maybe six. But we will certainly be sweating Sunday evening. Love this time of year.
Those last two possessions were classic. Hood falls down out of control and gets the call. Clemson gets hacked like mad no call
This seems like something that would happen with N.C. State:
Yeah, that would totally happen to us. Except they’d switch to stock photos of Roy and K staring majestically into the distance.

Actually what the replay showed was full contact over the entire length of Hall’s arm by the Duke player. The talking heads were so focused on the hand on ball contact that they didn’t bother to notice that the only way Hall got slowed down enough for the ball contact to even be possible was the hack across the arm. It was an obvious easy call.

Replays show no contact at all on Hall. Good no call.
Then you have not seen the picture. It shows a complete hack by good.
Prepare yourself for this to happen to us
