If we could be sure of anything before this game it was that the game would come down to the last second and the refs would be terrible. Check and check. The Huskies came up short after Jaylen Nowell and Noah Dickerson fouled out in overtime of a 69-66 defeat to Oregon State. In 3 meetings the two teams played to 3 total overtimes and each game was decided by 3 or less points.
Both teams looked at first like they had been enjoying Las Vegas a little too much the night before with some sluggish starts.
