It was obvious that it was a basketball play, as she put her arm up. The UConn player threw her head back. Not a flagrant one. That was total BS.
Completely agree. The announcers kept saying, even after looking at slo mo replay, that she got elbowed in the throat. I don't know how they saw that in the video. Her elbow never touches her, it was her hand/wrist, and it grazed her chin/cheek accidentally. So glad MSU pulled it out, especially after that call.
Also, although ESPN probably showed him too much, I loved how into it Dak Prescott was cheering for his school. Reminded me of something you'd probably see Niang do someday. I love people that are really proud of the school they attended and still show their support. I think a lot of that is gone now and players just play for themselves and not their school.
