Replay reviews in last minute of Wichita State-Marshall draw heavy criticism

What should have been a very exciting finish to Marshall’s upset victory over Wichita State was diminished by the glacial pace of the final minute, which was marred by three replay reviews.

Marshall won 81-75, but the final minute of play took nearly 20 minutes in real time due to a pair of out-of-bounds reviews plus a review of the lineups before one of the reviews.

The brutal pace was met with horrible reviews on Twitter, and understandably so.

Look, getting the calls right is important, but this took way longer than it needed to. No wonder millennials don’t watch basketball these days. That was brutal.
