Sorry A&M fans, I'm that dude that stopped watching right before the comeback and then turned it on right before they started losing again. My bad.
same here 🙋♂️
Same here
😂
Thank you
Dang it man you cost us the game
10:29 that was the quickest jump ball call I’ve ever seen.
Yeah that was sketchy
Nah fr I didn’t even notice that
Garbage, game should have been over right there
@@BigJack512it’s scripted so
The refs did all they could to help A$M win, but the Coogs were simply that much better than the Ags and able to overcome the refs' bad calls! The entire "come back" by the Ags was helped by the refs! They planned to call a jump ball before a Coog could even take possession of the rebound! No way A$M would be able to overcome such a large deficit in points to the Coogs with a little bit of time left on the game without the refs' help! A$M shot 45 free throws, that is a lot of free throws for a losing team! The refs kicked 4 Coogs out of the game with their foul calls!
This is why March madness is the best
No doubt
@@michaeldauria4386no doubt too
this game was actually insane
Buzz goes straight into the Overcoaching Hall of Fame for what he did at the very end. Guy’s barreling to the basket for an easy 2 and maybe an and-1 (with these refs you have to assume they were getting it) to cut the lead to 1. But instead he calls a timeout to set up a terrible contested 3, game over.
yep houston was rattled and making only 1 of 2 FTs each time just take the easy 2 again and keep putting em at the line
Dude also looks like Curly from the 3 stooges.
Got love armchair coaches with 20/20 hindsight.
This is one of the best march madness games ive ever watched
These refs were clearly against Houston. I’ve never seen worse calls in my life.
Try being a UNC fan lol
Lol, the Jace out of bounds, the Boots 2 pointer. The refs weren't great either way. Houston was fouling like crazy, and we play a drive and get into the paint offense. Houston shot like 50 threes, they aren't going to get as many FTs
@@notvinny3369a UNC fan? Really like all the bs calls UNC got in the national championship against Gonzaga. You have no room to talk.
Bad loser
@@khure711wahhhhh😂
What a comeback by TX A&M to force OT! But the momentum just shifted to Houston, who had no problem controlling the game to win it!
Congratulations Aggies. You are a great team and played a great game.
Nah Houston have different type of dogs on the team to lose cryer and Shay, give up a big lead at the end of regulation, and still finish with the win.
That jump ball call definitely deserves a review for investigation, obviously the ref who blew the whistle needs to be thoroughly investigated.
Why are you complaining?? Houston won either way. That wasn't a crazy jumpball anyways. Literally complaining for no reason???
@@carltonharrell2539there was a second left in the game… so yea I think it mattered
@@carltonharrell2539 With the first camera angle it was hard to see, but when they showed the replay it clearly was a bad call. The A&M guy never had solid possession. Not saying that an investigation is needed but it was way too quick of a whistle. Bad call.
Those refs were questionable at best from the tip. 4 players foul out? Give me a break.
@@jwags7624you do realize a&m had 24 fouls and houston 28, right? A&M plays more players
Shiut out to Both teams!! Way to represent for Texas young men. We live ya boys. Now time for H-TOWN to hold it down baby
lol 40+ free throws now that’s an insane comeback for sure!
Exactly. They were calling fouls on Houston players for A&M player running into them. It was such bs
Compared to Oregon, who somehow didn’t shoot their first free throw until there was like 7 seconds left. Crazy inconsistency.
@@karshialy6372All Houston does is foul. It’s justified
Houston is super physical. I only have a problem because a&m looked pretty physical too. That said, I've seen way less Aggie bball
Houston shot 30 though?
I heard Cryer will be starting the Duke game with 3 fouls.
hahahahah
Really a tough, draining game. Both teams left it all out there. Go Coogs!!!
What grit and spirit by both teams, and the class displayed at the end of the game
Cryer getting pushed out of bounds with no foul call. Cryer fouls out on a legal block by NCAA rules. the jump ball that was called in 0.3 seconds. Sharpe fouls out on a phantom foul . Shead fouling out on the softest amount of contact ever, just after he scored on the other end with the same amount of contact. Aggie player straight up goes up and down at the end of the game no call?. Just awful officiating, zebras had money on A&M
The 3 free throws at 5:16 was absolutely ridiculous. Touching fingertips after the shot is not a foul.
when he blocked it clean too @@curtisstutz7989
Ryan Elvin! What a moment for that guy. It's rare to see such a deep bench player flung in at such a crucial juncture of a game and make a big play. We'll see if Houston can finally win it all, but they certainly were the definition of a team down the stretch.
The 1st ranked Cougars of Houston prevailed in overtime against the Fighting Aggies of Texas A & M, 100-95 & headed to Dallas for the South Region Semifinal against the Blue Devils of Duke University, who took care of the Dukes of James Madison University.
You left out that Houston prevailed against fighting Aggies and refs.
Survive & advance is what March Madness is all about. Now Houston gets Duke in the Sweet Sixteen.
The strain on the face on the coach of Houston was so intense. I got stressed just watching the game I can’t imagine what (e was going through from basically having the game in the bag to OT.
What happened with Taylor taking that shot? He missed all of his shots in OT but made his fts.
He was off all night unfortunately
@CM4RSH yeah I had watched the highlights on mute. I rewatched it bcuz I didn't believe what I had seen. I heard 4-23 I think.
Great game but “clearly hit him across the right arm” seemed more like hit his hand after the shot was away to me.
yeah that call was not good
From what I understand you can’t hit the shooters hand/arm during the follow through
Commentators are there to try and disguise the fix. But even they can't control themselves sometimes.
@StevenEatsAlone you can make contact w/ the arm if you blocked the ball 1st
Look like he blocked it. The ball was short with no spin. No way he shot it like that. No way getting touched after the ball is shot affects the ball. Is there a landing spot foul?
LOL the guy that slid across the floor at 11:21
and miscalculated
Good catch
Obaseki 😂
AMAZING GAME!
A&M scored 17 points in the final 1:52 of regulation. Multiplied over the course of 40 minutes, that would have equated to approximately 340 points.
These are the facts that we need to know
Yo I like how you hittin us with facts.
@@ModernMozart1104 Haha you’re welcome.
20:50 legendary
A couple of great coaches went head to head with teams that have more heart than I have seen on a court at the same time in a very long time. A&M fans can take heart, they don’t have John Calipari as their head coach.
Game of the year
What's really crazy is this is just the ad free part, with ads this ending took around 45 minutes of real time!
The most important sequence of the game was the opening possession of OT when Roberts made that save and Sharp followed with the 3. That steadied the ship for Houston and they led the whole rest of the way. If A&M had ever taken the lead, I don't think they would have given it up.
Not having Obasakei during OT really hurt A&M. They might have pulled off the upset with him on the floor.
Nah he was playing wild. Had some good plays tho
This hurts so bad
So much for the SEC. 😂
@@thundergato84 Tennessee and bama are still in it.
@@thundergato84must be in a much lesser conference, lol. Cry more
You had Houston -9.5 ?
@@hueyhoopin no
No one does less with more than Texas A&M. Football, basketball, golf, baseball, softball etc etc ...
This is March Maaaaaaadnessssss ! Way more exciting than NBA
Ya your right college basketball is a whole lot more intense than nba
Houston vs Texas A&M and the *Refs* smh
I'm assuming I'm missing context because I didn't watch the whole game... but there's not a single bad call in the whole video lol
The calls were good for both sides?
@@empex-ky9ei A&M shot 45 free throws and 25 in the 1st half. There were 2 physical teams playing but only one was penalized for it.
@@mars2bHouston fouled a lot. Actions have consequences, imagine that!
Houston has always been a bad fouling team, A&M was the only team that consistently drove to the rim.
Yea, it was classic. I wish they played in the final four.
How’s that a jump ball at the end of regulation? Ref was over eager to call that.
This was one of the few bad calls. Everybody is talking about the refs were awful, but they weren't. This was called to quick though. I'm not even sure Houston had possession.
Tf was that foul calls were as tall as a giraffe and the missed calls were even worse🤣🤣
Its all rigged for Vegas bud.
Refs really wanted Texas a and m. That was a clean block.
Houston had an 8 point lead with 1:14 left and the game went to OT. That right there is why you NEVER let your foot off the gas pedal (so to speak) in sports until the game is COMPLETELY over. I've seen it a million times where teams get conservative with leads and just try to run the clock out and they end up losing. Surprised Sampson let that happen.
Happens all the time in football too. OT was actually the best thing that could've happened to Houston since it completely reset all the game's momentum.
I mean when the refs are trying to foul out the whole team, come backs like this are gonna happen. The officiating was one sided.
@@julienlozano2022 Won't get any better against Duke. I hope everybody knows that.
They had a 12 point lead with under 2 minutes
@@julienlozano2022Houston was trying to foul out the whole team😂
H-TOWN!! Never a doubt. NEVER. Sometimes its not an easy path, and sometimes you get help from horrendous coaching and execution by the opponent, but we going all the way! COUUUUUUUGARS
Sweet 16 hasn't even started yet and I see Houston already in Foul trouble 😅
😂😂😂 U know what's comin and its sad
Duke will be in the bonus when they step off the bus.
Rig, rig, rig....
As I'm typing this, the refs just called a foul on Cryer.
Good it’s happening in round two. Gives Houston time to get it right when it really matters.
The fact the ref called a jump ball w 1 second left is criminal. That was a horrible call & the ref should be investigated.
Oh shut up
@@TylerEubankdisregard the fact that it was 1 second left. What ref even calls jump ball that fast, you can see houston got it no problem.
Nah
Wow watta game 💯☝️
This is why I agree with chuck when he said run up the score
Only one game on the women’s side was like this
Cryer fouled out for blocking the shot. He got the ball!!!
I placed multiple bets at the 1 minute mark of regulation on the live Houston ML. A kept wagering a whole lot to win relatively little b/c was so sure Houston wouldn’t choke away their double-digit lead. Tomorrow I’m cashing out of my account. What a valiant comeback by the Aggies!
You’re doing it wrong, you should have been betting a little on the aggies at huge odds.
@@JaneDoeyI definitely hear where you’re coming from but I try to do only extreme high probability bets over and over again. This game nearly got me though.
Can’t believe A&M made 2 would be 3 point shots except toe was on the line. First one was with 1:27 left in game and then again with 1:17 left in the game. Left 2 points out there. 🤦♂️
They left a whole lot more than that out there with the 16 missed free throws. If even half of those are made it's a completely diferent game down the stretch.
We're are those big 12 teams now!!!😊
Props to A&M. I didn't even pick them to win against Nebraska. Shame on me.
Interesting how the referee that made the terrible jump ball call at 10:30 also missed the blatant blocking foul at 9:52. Also interesting how at 14:29 he also called a foul on Sharp that fouls him out of the game on a MUCH more questionable foul that can actually be debated on whether it was a foul.
A LOT of bad calls here but 9:52 looks clean to me
@@awldune no, Shead was not allowed his space. The defender used his body to slow him down. That’s a foul.
@@astrosfanhou2562 The replay angle didnt show it, my bad
Ryan Elvin is my hero!!
Taylor 5 of 25 FG'S LOL
This should have been a 8 to 13 points Coogs win before overtime. However, the officials made too many bad calls in the last 2 mins of regulation. Coogs deserve better treatment than this from officials. Coogs a way better team than A&M and that’s just the honest truth.
Houston played scared at the end of regulation. Classic case of playing not to lose instead of playing to win. Very lucky to survive.
They were playing 8v5. Makes it hard.
I thought you had to win for it to be an INSANE comeback.
😬I picked Houston to win it all
Hopefully they never see these refs again except behind bars for betting on the game.
Garciaaaaaaaa 🎉
What a shot, good game, aggies just couldn’t get it going early, and a ton of missed free throws
Buns for life for a second
The only game I didn’t watch this weekend smh🤦♂
Couple of times Roberts had a defensive rebound at the end of regulation that he couldn't squeeze. That hurt a lot.
100% rewatching that was brutal. Also Shead turnovers
lol @ the "jump ball" call
up by 11 with 1.30 to go WOW has to be A RECORD COMEBACK even though they lost in DOUBLE O.T. ,, BY THE WAY with 1 second to go in REG. that WAS NOT A JUMPBALL NOT EVEN CLOSE , REFS BLEW THAT CALL BIGTIME
The match was broadcast on TNT(a division of Warner Bros., which owns Cartoon Network, CNN, etc.).
I've seen quite a few times this season with UH, once they get a lead they slow things down to a crawl and then just go one-on-one with less than 10 seconds on the shot clock and end up missing. I wish they would just play their normal offense. It's fine to take the shot later but at least move the ball around first and see if you can get some easy high percentage shots.
Texas AM can't shoot FT. Basic but if they made most of them it's a different story.
Shooting a 3 with 4.2 seconds left and then having the ref call a jumpball with 1.2 seconds left might be the craziest call in the history of basketball. Get the ref investigated. There WAS a play THIS game that took 10 seconds because players were tugging the ball on the ground with no jump ball.
Unbelievable how bad the free throw shooting was.
Dudes was gassed lol.
Great game by the Aggies.
Gain one, loose one. Who said the Big 12 wasn't the most competitive conference? Rock CHALK
I woke up at 2 am to 👀 this when I just knew the game was over??? Yeah they came back and I honestly felt like the game was Aggies to lose. Missed free throws and foul outs and Coach Sampson from Robeson County NC made me think he was coming home.
Number 4 was just throwing the ball up 😂 bro was trying get paid to lose 😂😂😂
10:28 how on earth was possession arrow to Texas A&M favored win they didn’t even have possession of the ball
arrow flips every jump ball or at half
24:25 that wasn’t a push… he was touching him, but that wasn’t a foul, didn’t affect the offensive player in the least, as I see it (not rooting for either team, btw)
That same ref missed a foul on A&M at 9:52 & also made a questionable call on Sharp on a much more debatable call at 14:29
That was definitely a foul. Also the foul was before the shot. This might be part of your issue in seeing it.
@@astrosfanhou25629:52 wasn't a foul you are entitled to your space. Shead wasn't pushed, he released. 14:52 was questionable, but they called a similar foul in regulation against a&m that I also thought was questionable at the time, so at least they were consistent.
@@kdog2646 Maybe you’re right, I’m not up on the modern rules, but I was watching him all the way from the top of the key on in. He was touching the guy as they were running along, but in my mind that’s not a foul, at least, as I always played it and as it was taught to me and as I watched for decades. Pushing someone and impeding their progress is a foul, but I never saw any pressure being applied, and I never saw any interfering with the guy’s movement here, he was just tracking along with him. As I say, the rules may have changed so that you can’t actually touch someone on the hip anymore when they’re driving to the basket, I don’t know.
@@kdog2646 Shead was not allowed his space to work. Defender clearly used his body to slow him down. Foul for sure. Especially when compared to to other “fouls” on Houston called by the same ref for much less and very debatable whether there was contact. My point here is that those calls were not going both ways. It’s quit obviously clear in those examples.
So lucky
Hey A&M thank you for showing the remaining teams Houston’s defense can be beat. Well done
Right arm foul? What video were you watching?
i wonder which came first, the word cry or the surname cryer
Why did the clock keep running after his first dunk? That was weird and not right. Last 2 mins stops everythint
I thought that Texas could make a comeback in overtime even though they were down 5 points with 8 seconds left, I thought they could score three points, then make a steal and score another three points to win )
That "jump ball" 😅😅😅 doesn't get worse than that
Taylor IV looks like a league kinda guy
A&M was in my Final Four
Does anyone know what a comeback means?

Reed Shepard has most rotation of any ball shot in college 🏀. 3 pointer his ball rotates one & half more than average 3 pt ball shot.
52..9 he walked on that double team defense.
What are you watching my guy? Go post on his one and done dud of a 1st round exit 😂
@@DaveFerguson-vh5fnLMAO😂
I think if they put some rotation on the ball it might go in the basket. What do you think?
Why didn't Houston just foul on the inbound, give them the 2 shots then run clock out for the win???? C'mon coach get with the game!
Does anyone know what those ‘90s looking black T-shirts the A&M fans were wearing said?
lol at the aggies
Good thing Houston won in OT because that was the worst jump ball I’ve ever seen with 1 sec left
horrible
LJ had somethin to cry about
gotta make ur free throws lol
Who is the guy in the crowd he look familiar???
he got the shot off in time but why is the clock starting so late. there should be 0.2 left by the time it leaves hes hand in my opinion.
Backboard said about 0.7-0.8 seconds when he got the shot off. I'd say it was more like 0.4-0.5 seconds left from the time the ball was first touched to when the shot was gotten off. TIme keepers usually start the clock when a player has possesion (when it should be when the ball is first touched).
"houston is just a fouling team" houston averages 18 fouls per game a&m averages 17 fouls per game this argument does not hold up lol
