Was anyone else worried when Johnson hit the last free throw

instead of intentionally missing it? I know there was only .7 seconds left but I still couldn't help feeling something else crazy would happen, lol....life of a Gamecock fan at times.

Nope.

Yes, should have missed it. Cant believe they didn't try to throw it deep. Also, bs on reset. Should have been .2 seconds.

was more worried when that first one was going through the spin cycle

hard fought, great win

Did anyone see ST throw his hands up in the shooters face. He could have fouled him.

when Frank called the timeout after Tyrone hit the first two, I figured it was to tell him to miss it so that by the time they got the rebound, they didn't have time to set up a play. I figured if Ty made the third free throw, a two point lead wasn't going to make a difference anyhow if somehow they hit a long 3 point shot from mid court or beyond.

Heck Thornwell blocked his shot! With those refs I was shocked he even got close to him. Watch the replay, the shot was definitely tipped. Crazy !

looked like Sin was about 3 feet away from the guy, though. Remember, that guy is only 5'8" or so and ST is 6'5". AND, a shot like that is gonna have a low trajectory, kinda like a long field goal. THAT's how he blocked it. AND how he was far enough away to avoid any foul call.

Stupidity reigned. Just like on the four point play. Better to be lucky than good, or smart, in some cases.

No, because it is impossible to grab a rebound then get off a shot in .7 seconds.

When Ty Johnson shot that first free throw when it almost went out but went back in . Casey Manning said he lost 10 years of his life . lol

Would have been a better play for Miss if they had tried a full court pass. Wonder why they didn't?

The way we turn the ball over on the easy passes that would had been to chancy.
