Q: When is a clean block/tie up not a clean block/tie up?
A: When it's done to Tyler Hansbrough. Then it's a foul.
Dear NCAA tournament refs,
Please do not bail out Hanstravel like your ACC counterparts.
Thank you,
-Every non-unc fan
This is awful. I'm only 24, so my frame of reference is pretty small, but I have never seen calls like this favor a "star" player except in the NBA. Awful to watch. And I don't even like Va Tech in the slightest.

Carolina has this game in the bag. The Heels will determine the winner here..
VT by 3 and ball. Didn't think VT was going to shoot a FT in the 2nd half. Why do people say Duke get's all the calls. Just look at unc and Wake. Go Duke!

If I were a Hokie fan (which I guess I am today) my head would be exploding.
2nd half fouls on UNC 3; on VT 9
Criminal jump ball. This is embarrassing for the conference
OH MY GOD!!!
ONE HAND and he gets a jump ball and NO FOUL?

Boy, that was a mugging. Especially considering he was TRYING to foul again.... ugh
this second half has been almost blatant favoritism... they'll say it's not but good grief. Seth has every right to get ticked after that play

What is really annoying about that tie up that gave the ball to UNC was that the pass wasn't to the guy that got tied up. I thought he intercepted the pass to the player on the perimeter.
I am so tired of watching this. Thank God his career is almost over. Hanstravel walks on the basket that gives the holes the lead, then fouls on purpose on the deciding play of the game and the unc refs call a jump ball that gives their team the ball back.
Unfrickin believable..
Hogwash.
The ACC should be embarrassed to allow crap like that to happen.
VA Tech played a good game, but hard to win if _______________________

I thought the same thing DIK... it was supposed to go back out to the perimeter.
