Well, last night was interesting, wasn’t it?
I’ve already gone on record for saying that the foul call on Tyasha Harris with five seconds to go in a 72-72 ballgame was just lousy. Repeated replays show Tennessee’s Jaime Nared tripping on her own accord (which should have been called a travel) and minimal, at best, contact by the South Carolina freshman. Of course, Nared made both of her free throws, and the Lady Vols would leave Columbia with a 74-72 upset victory.
But rewind the tape long before that. I had an uneasy feeling that this would probably turn out Tennessee’s way, because despite their record, they’re a very good basketball team.
