Tinsley

Someone else would need to look up the specifics, but in the Missouri game in Columbia there were some very suspicious free throw misses by tinsley to barely not cover. Something like 8 of 10 down the stretch.

Tinsley fouled out before the end of the game. It went 4 overtimes, and if Sullivan's game tying three at the buzzer wasn't blocked it could have sent it to a 5th overtime.
 
the Hampton game was investigated by the FBI. no truth to the point shaving BS.
 
There are rumors, some people I know insist that something foul took place. No one will ever know for sure. Some things took place in that game that I thought were very interesting though. I think we were roughly 16 -18 point favorites. Is it possible something was going on so we wouldn't cover and it just got out of hand at the end? I don't think it is crazy. On the other hand that team was flat out bad the last couple weeks as well, on the other hand, Hampton was a bad team. That was not a good 15 seed that just got under seeded. No one will ever know except for a few.
 
Oh dear lord.....3 pages of this?

So let me get this straight.....i dont even know if his layup would or would not have effected betting stances. But ill play along....and lets say it did.

So in order for him to throw it i have to believe that if he made the layup...he would have made ISU on the wrong side of the bet.

Assuming that....you really think to do that...he decided to drive full length of the court, past several defenders and lay a ball up that just did trickle off the side of the rim??
For what? Buyability?

Give me a break...he could have just made a poor pass off the drive, or double pumped and missed wildly or a million other undetectable ways. Probably not going to risk it by putting one up on the rim that almost goes in.

The layup has nothing to do with it. No one thinks he tried to lose the game. People think he tried to shave enough points for Hampton to cover a huge spread and it just got out of hand. The layup had nothing to do with it. There are many many other plays in the game that conspiracy theorists reference.
