Yes, I’ve already told you that I thought Ohio St. totally lucked out in their win over Xavier. All it took was one made free throw by Justin Cage and Ohio St. would’ve gone home (ensuring that no Big Ten teams made it out of the 2nd round). But check out this football move by Greg Oden that wasn’t called an intentional or flagrant foul:
Â
Oden even admitted he was going for a hard foul
“I just look at that foul as, they’re going to call bull crap fouls,†Oden said. “I might as well get one that’s hard.â€Â
I guess none of this matters — especially when they’re in the Final Four and Xavier (and the rest of the country is at home watching it).
