If you watched the Michigan-Florida State Elite Eight game last night, you knew this question had to be asked post-game. FSU was down 4 with 11 seconds in the game, a clear fouling situation in college basketball, because as we’ve seen every single tournament, college players stink at free throws. If that clock isn’t at zero, there’s always a possibility for a miracle. You’ve seen how these kids operate under pressure.
So it was weird seeing Leonard Hamilton react like Dana Jacobson just asked him to solve a quantum physics equation. Suuuuuper awkward and just flat-out bizarre. How do you not know this question is coming? He has an obligation to every gambler out there who had Michigan -4.5. Now you have people saying the fix was in.
I normally wouldn’t believe it, but after that interview who the hell knows.
Florida State doesn't foul wtih more than 10 seconds left down just 4… Michigan -4.5 backers… let your freak out commence.
