Anyone else watching? UNC up 25 in the second half, Baylor just tied it up with 15 seconds left. Insane comeback. UNC collapsing under Baylor pressure. Technicals on both sides. UNC player ejected after flagrant 2 called for throwing high elbow on rebound. Comeback started immediately after ejection.

Ejection was a bad call in my opinion. Should have been a flagrant 1. But whatever, too bad so sad for UNC.

Nuts. I was about to go out for a long walk and get some coffee but decided to keep watching a while after Manek got ejected. Never thought it was possible to come back down 25 in 2nd half.

In the last 3 minutes of regulation, UNC got two gift calls: the phantom foul on Davis's 3-point attempt (he made all 3) and Flagler got hammered on one of his drives that didn't get called. Incredible comeback, but down 25 was just a bit too far to overcome. Saw the last 10 minutes of reg and the OT - first hoops I've watched since our loss to ND, as I just had no interest after that gut wrenching loss. Probably not watching the rest of today either as the wife and I have plans - maybe a little tonight.

North Carolina under achieved during the regular season but they have elite talent that can defeat most teams in the NCAA Tournament if the players show up.

I thought Baylor got several gift calls leading to the comeback. Every time they drove the whistle blew.

At one point during that run there were 8 or 9 consecutive foul calls against UNC - and a ton of non-calls on Baylor.

It depends on the offense that a team runs.Baylor is a team that dribble drives to the basket on most possessions causing fouls to be called.The same thing happened with Murray State agaisnt St,Peters where they drove to the basket on most possessions in the last five minutes of the game resulting in fouls being called against St.Peters.Its hard to defend againt fouling when there are drives to the basket.It depends on the refs as to how much contact they will allow.

Every drive to the basket doesn’t result in a foul but for a stretch the refs were calling it that way for Baylor. NC wasn‘t getting the same calls. This played a huge role in Baylor’s comeback.

On every inbounds plays Baylor was grabbing, shoving and hacking - and it was NEVER called. that was the worst of it for me.
