In a game that featured 50 foul calls, it seemed ironic that the final result would be influenced by a controversial no call with only five seconds remaining. Down 61-59 with five seconds remaining in the game, Texas Tech nearly had disaster strike when superstar Jarrett Culver collided with James “Beetle” Bolden off ball on an inbound play. Fortunately, the play was not called as a foul on either player, and Davide Moretti was subsequently intentionally fouled. Bob Huggins was visibly upset, the West Virginia faithful were heated, and Red Raider players were ready to celebrate a tough, gritty win.
