Refs swallowed their whistles on TWO consecutive plays where our guys got into the lane and got clearly hacked and got the ball stolen in OT. That led to two of those 3-pointers. Have the refs just decided not to call fouls on games played by us?
Meh, you dribble into traffic like that and you’re not getting that call too often. It’s just a given that there’s some slapping and grabbing when you drive into three sets of hands in the lane. Right or wrong that seems to be viewed as a bailout if called.

So freaking lucky. That is a once in 25 year shot. I remember the last one against ISU.....25 years ago against Colorado with the elite 8 team. Also lost that one in overtime. We beat AZ tonight and everybody knows it.

And that's really difficult to do with 2.2 left. The refs weren't calling touch fouls. We'd have had to tackle someone off the ball for a foul to be called. You also risk giving them 3 ft's there if Love jacks it during the foul. In their end of the half court you're fouling, but I'm fine with letting them put up a prayer. They got lucky.

This loss isn't the end of the world. Houston won't run the table. We still have a shot at the Big XII Champ. And frankly, a 1 or 2 seed doesn't make much difference. Lots of basketball left. Proud of these guys for their grit in a tough environment.
Pretty hard now given we play at Houston. Houston isn’t going to lose 4.

We win at KU but lose at Houston to end up 27-4 (17-3). Arizona has six losable games left (@ASU(rivlalry), @BYU, Houston, @Baylor, @ISU, @KU) and lose at least two so go 17-3 at best. We win by double digit in Hilton.

Basically we can only take one more loss looking at our remaining SOS versus others at the 1/2 line.

Likely need to win out to win the Big 12 as well. Houston isnt losing three times
B12 reg season is different than a 1 seed. That's due to non con as well.

Wtf is that supposed to mean?

The guy sucked all night until the last 5:02.2
He's been a chucker his whole career.
Just keep chucking. That’s who he is. Not sure Parrish meant this as a slight, but it sure can be seen as one if you watched that game and aren’t just sensationalizing tweets for clicks based on the last 10 minutes.

Look at Houston schedule and let me know which ones they are losing.

Not sure what to say on that one. Good win for AZ. We didn't play great. Jones couldn't hit the ocean w/ his shots and lacked confidence. It happens. Forgot our offense in the OT.

Love had the game of his life there at the end!
