OT: Brutal loss by St John’s to #13 Baylor

[newell138]

Up 18 in the second half Baylor comes back to force OT. Goes to a second OT and St John’s is up by 2 with 6 seconds left and 2 FTs. They miss both and Baylor hits a 3 at the buzzer to win. That’s gonna sting for awhile

listening to the announcers they were talking like it was a done deal for St Johns to win

My goodness i rarely feel bad for a regional rival but I feel bad for SJU. Reminds me of our minnesota game from a couple years ago

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

Was watching the game and left due to the blowout. Wow. Just get the rebound on the miss and its over.

 

[fatsam98]

Was an awesome game. St Johns fans were celebrating wildly with about 16 seconds left when they were up 98-93

 

[pmvon]

Both 3s were nuts. That about bad a way to
Lose as one can imagine.

 

[BillyC80]

Gives me hope since we played SJU pretty well in our exhibition.

Nope, I never ever feel for them or Hall or any other school in the region. When they are given the chance, they will sh*t on Rutgers every opportunity.

Our old friend Ejiofor missed the two late FTs.

Ricky P be saying, “It’s NOT better in the Bahamas.”

Dont feel bad..they missed 4 foul shots and were up 5 with about 9 seconds left. Baylor deserved the win.

yep, had plenty of opportunities to put it away

Hey, sometimes it takes time but this is karma for the way they beat us in the Garden years ago.

Talk about Karma. St. John’s was screwed by the refs the last few minutes of regulation but the ultimate screw job on the 3. The clock was at 4.1 when Ekifor went to the line. I said watching it live that no way that sequence only took under 4.1 seconds. Then they showed the replay. After the second missed free throw the clock doesn’t start for at least 1 second if not more . They replayed highlight everywhere and sure enough a clock malfunction that not one coach or commentator mentioned .
Clock issue in Big East against Rutgers comes back like karma to bite them in the ass.

All good cept it wasn't a clock issue..it was a ref issue.

Reminded me more of this atrocity...

Yes I guess ref issue for not catching the clock not starting but nevertheless from the time of the miss until the shot was released more than 4.1 seconds went by , probably a second more at least

Baylor missed 3-4 foul shots in the second OT. Baylor didn’t deserve that win at all. St. John’s was leading almost wire to wire. Did you watch the game or only the end ?

To Cliff’s credit, he immediately ran to the ref and pointed out that Holt had jumped in from out of bounds before shooting.

I think the only time Baylor was ahead was at the buzzer
