How does Buffalo allow him to come anywhere close to catching the ball on that final position? He was not going to let the Cats lose this one.

Looked like Skeete had a chance to deflect the pass if he reacted right away but he was too concerned with making sure Ryan Taylor didn't get the pass. Mo's head fake reminded me of Walter Offutt faking the crap out of the USF guy when we went in for a layup late in that game.

watching that I do not see what Hurley is complaining about. Nice throw by tc. Most guys put the big guy on the other end ....we put him where he can see over the floor. Cool

Can't for the life of me see Hurley in any position to call anyone unprofessional after watching him on the sideline ALL day long in EVERY game I see.

So now you can't pump your fist after a game winning shot?

Heck of a game. One of the best games I've ever been too. NDOUR played great. A couple bad travels but was clutch at the FT line and finished with 29

Really happy for him and the team. We are not the worst team in the conference now!

No one had the balls to call another clear travel violation

Yeah - I see 3 steps after the ball hits the floor. He did put the ball on the floor when he got going - unlike earlier travels in the game where he waiting until after the send step.

I lost my mind for about 20 minutes after The Toss and Dunk. Let us not forget Tony Campbell in all of this. But...

Big game. Played 40 minutes too. He is one of the better players in the MAC and he carried the team today. We needed every point. perfect from line. That was the difference.

What are you talking about? That was no where near a travel. that was clearly two hard steps to the hoop and launch.

I dunno - it's close - why I think it's great they did not call him for another one

Actually, not quite. Came out at the 12:45 mark in 1st half for 37 seconds. I guess he should have been credited with 39 minutes, although I don't know how that works officially.

YOu have the advantage of watching it over and over and slo mo. Refs in the last 2-6 secs are always gonna swallow their whistles. To them, that was a bounce and then 2 steps in real time. They are never gonna call that one. The addage there is let the players decide the game. Buffalo should have been more aggressive. No foul is ever gonna get called there either.

Good catch. I saw 40 on the box score and assumed.

Prior to the season I looked at Saul's teams at NDSU and he didn't use guys over 35 minutes often. If NDOUR can hold up, use him 40. Hopefully he CAN hold up through the grind of MAC play.

The only reason he's ever been on the pine this year is fouls. Saul never rests him and he never seems to have ill effects from playing a lot of minutes. Our problem all year is Ndour not playing enough, and that's usually caused by poor defense from the guards leading to Mo fouling when he is forced to help late. That generally happened less against Buffalo and it's a big reason Ohio won.

Ndour could "play two"* let alone 40 minutes.
