@@crisrodriguez4676 Im a Lobos fan and same. Seeing a team from the mountain west have this kind of run is amazing. I never thought I would see it.
Went to the game as a UK fan and rooted for the aztecs, the blue jay fans outnumbered the aztecs 10 to 1. I think sdsu fans didn't travel to Louisville because they expected Bama to advance. SDSU was down for 30 plus minutes but never out.
Got my Masters at SDSU. I'm so happy the Aztecs won! Pure joy!
San Diego Sports are finally becoming respectable! Love to see it. Good Luck SDSU!
Fantastic win for San Diego
Robert here, born here in San Diego!!!!!!! Aztecs deserve an incredible win, this is the best NCAA game ever for San Diego State, best NCAA basketball game in my lifetime, 1963.
Never thought I’d see San Diego State in the Final 4! What a crazy bracket this year!
Trammel was hitting that runner all game and you can see the foul that altered his shot.
I’m a Illinois fan so I have no horse in this game but that was clearly a foul non issue to me
Go Aztecs!!❤❤
Wild tournament. This really is march madness.
It ain't March Madness unless a game ends in the most bizarre way with a foul as time expires.
Why the foul bizarre. Looked obvious to me. Go AZTECS!!!

Another heartbreak for Creighton.

Went to SDSU games from when I was 12 until I joined the Military. I’ll never forget watching Leonard play in person, or going to Arizona to watch the Aztecs play UofA in the Sweet Sixteen. But I could never have imagined State going to the final four (without Fisher for one) while I’d be deployed and unable to watch it. #IBelieveThatWeWillWin
It's gonna be a barn burner vs FAU
What a ride! Great game by two great programs. We are going to Houston! GO AZTECS!
Same thing as the Super Bowl. Ticky tack fouls deciding games in the biggest moments. Kills all momentum and takes away from the legendary moments
Hats off to the fans in Louisville who packed the Yum Center and gave this game a true Elite Eight atmosphere despite neither team being from anywhere near the region. I figured after Alabama lost, the arena would be half-empty for this game. But the local fans really stepped up in support.
🔥 game. “Defense wins championships” and that’s exactly what the Aztecs are giving us. One step at a time - bring on the owls. Congrats to my Aztecs! LFGSDSU! ✌🏽

Super pumped that San Diego State won, but I hated the foul call at the end of the game. Hated it!
Super happy SAN Diego St won this game. Read the last time SDSU & Crieghton played in the NCAA tournament, Jays won the game in Overtime. This time, its SDSU for a chance to go to their 1st NCAA championship. Let's get that WIN Aztecs & represent California!! 🏀 🙌

SAN DIEGO STATE AZTECS ADVANCES TO THE 1ST FINAL FOUR APPEARANCE

I knew Creighton shooting would stretch The Aztecs defense but those guys don't get rattled they hang together I love the grit of this ball club.
their defense specializes in 3 pt shooting teams , Creighton was playing well when they looked for their Center.
2nd best game of the tourney so far. That's amazing.
To all who didn't watch the game, the contest was called at the end without any further play because the Creighton player that inbounded the ball after the winning FT, stepped on the baseline. Couple that with the tipped inbounds pass that went out of bounds, which left only 0.3 on the clock, and you have a scenario where there's: 1. Review which team tipped it out (replay showed it went out off Creighton). 2. Review the stepping on the baseline on the inbounds pass. 3. Know that those two calls had a good chance of putting the ball in the Aztecs' possession, and hence, end of game. 4. Know that even if Creighton somehow dodged both calls and regained possession, unless you're Derrick Fisher at San Antonio 19 years ago, you have no chance at a shot at the hoop. Moot points all around, so game over...
Write a book next time lol
Thank you I missed that part
awesome watching these young men play ball congrats to both programs
It was clearly a foul. It was the right call.
You don't call that at all. I wanted sdsu but that's pretty so weak of a call at the end of the game
horrible call. all u people who think it was a good call have confirmation bias dementia
@@qaxcgyujm Sore loser. If the ref doesn't make an obvious call in a critical situation he doesn't deserve to be a ref. Maybe the Creighton guy shouldn't have grabbed Trammell's hip and pushed him in the act of shooting. What would the final score be then? SDSU would've won by two. So go home.
He was knocked to the ground in the act of shooting. A 2 shot foul. Replays show he was pushed on his hip in the air
Yeah, but that kind of foul happens probably 20 times a game and they don’t call it every time, so you certainly don’t call it then.
Great game
And with that we welcome San Diego State to the new-look Pac 12 conference.
Nah there cool in the Mountain West
@@Zenigundam this isn’t football
@@Zenigundam and ur a waste of air and resources on earth but hey no one is saying anything
@@Zenigundam SDSU is 7-4 against Pac-12 teams in football in the past 5 years though? Including UCLA.
Why, was USC's move to the Big 10, finalized? Just wondering?
Hopefully this will lend some sanity to the discussion of the last foul call. It wasn't a touch foul, you can clearly see the Creighton guy's left hand grabbing and pushing Trammell's right hip during the shooting motion. If the actions of the defensive player alter the shooter's through physical contact, it's a foul. Grabbing and pushing the offensive player's center of mass alters how he would have to shoot in order to make the shot. This is called a defensive foul. I'm glad the officials had the guts and the professionalism for calling it what it was, knowing there'll be plenty of whining and second guessing. Howl and whine if it makes you feel better, but San Diego State won the game fair and square.
It was a foul, but they had been "letting them play". So a little inconsistent to call, and definitely at the end of the game. However, great job selling the foul and insanely idiotic defense to even put yourself in that position. so I give the refs a pass. Great game, just wish it didn't end like that.
Was it a travel on the initial guy(33) who caught the inbound?
@@drumatheny3321 No. He maintains his pivot foot. There's no travel there.
I COULDNOT HAVE AGREED MORE. IT WAS CLEARLY A FOUL. RIDING THE SHOOTER TO BLOCK HIS SHOOT!
By the letter of the law that's a foul. However I think you would be surprised if you watched the entire game in slow motion how many times you would see that level of contact not called. He didn't appear to alter the shot (ball was out of his hands when the contact seemed more significant) so I expect most crews wouldn't have made that call at the buzzer. I've lived in SoCal my entire life so I'm happy SDSU won but the rose colored glasses are real. Fan objectivity has plummeted with the rise of social media where thousands of other fans reinforce each others opinions.
San diego stepping up
Love this. 3 first timers in the final 4.
San Diego and FAU in final four 😂😂😂 and no more number one seeds since sweet 16 this is March madness
1:55 clean move
Defense wins championships. Go get that ring San Diego
Steve Fisher brought this team to the forefront..just like he did at Michigan..
Atop was awesome that game
WOW! Good game San Diego State!
If someone actually picked San Diego State VS FAU for the Final 4 I will give you cold hard cash. Literally.
If anyone picked a perfect bracket this year you know they're not human.
I was at this game simply amazing
2 Cinderella teams, playing each other in the Final 4. Awesome! To elaborate. SD State and FAU are from smaller divisions, who were not expected by the so-called experts, to make the Final 4. That's why I called them Cinderella teams. 😉
I don't know where you been. But San Diego st has been up there for years. The experts know. We are no Cinderella
@@marquette-vr9oj your dumb, what he’s saying is it’s not like Kansas or baylor in the final 4

FYI that was a foul at the end. SDSU representing Cali all the way to the final four wow!
Heart goes to Creighton coach. What a class act he is. Wonderful wonderful and extremely gracious during the press conference after the game. Man I can trust him with my son if he plays basketball unfortunately i have all girls. wish him nothing but the best moving forward. Addressed that last sequence of the game like a champ. Wonderful man.
Very well said!
Great job San Diego 😊, great job by both teams.
Tuff great dub for San Diego well deserved
After all the stuff that occurred during the game, the official that made that call should've swallowed his whistle.
What was the review at the end?
So close to reach for the Final Four
Down to the point and second. Well deserved win since that was a clear foul in pushing him down on the hip mid air with the ball still in hand at the end. Don’t know what the post game announcers were talking about, great win for san diego finally defeating creighton after last year 🔥
it was not a foul. it was after the shot. they let them play physical the whole game then u call a touch foul with zero seconds left. one of the worst calls in ncaa history
You’re blind. Pause at 9:51. Hands grabbing the hip and ball still in hand.
@@justin15157 he was touching his hip yes. then he pushed down on it after the shot. he was grabbing him. they didnt call that foul all game and then they call it with zero seconds left and tied game? to goto the final four? doesnt matter im uconn fan but its an awful call anyway u defend it
you're not on the floor, the ref is and when the defender was beaten the Bluejay made it easier for the official.
@@mortystraphouse5077 Sounds like a salty Creigton fan lol, cry about it
Three of the four teams in this year's Final Four have never been to the Final Four. Only UCONN has been there before. The game of Men's College Basketball might have changed forever. Parity rules supreme.
Imagine a Miami vs FAU or San Diego State national championship game, that would be insane.
The foul caused his shot to come up short. Go Mountain West Conference!
yep he held down his waist with his weight enough to dislodged the shot
yep, his shot landed short because the defender pushed him forward! that's how physics works in colorado
yup and the refs also missed at least 5-6 blatant fouls from SDSU, you got away with one. congrats
@@IceKing89 5-6 lol now thats a good one

San Diego gone win
To everyone complaining that the refs shouldn't make that foul call because it's the end of the game, are wrong. If it's a foul, they should call it. Period. The fact that it happened at the end of the game should not dictate if it should be called...or not. Because if that's not true, then with that logic, that's like saying a defender can clothesline a shooter and the refs should NOT call it JUST BECAUSE it's the END OF THE GAME. Ridiculous. That was a foul and they called it right.
Well it wasn’t a foul
You people are embarrassing yourselves with that argument. THEY CALLED TWELVE FOULS ALL HALF!!!! If they were staying true to what IS a foul then both teams would’ve been in double bonus by the under 8 timeout at the latest.
Now we have a great game;
Great Match 👍😎😎
Congratulations
This draft would be one of the best in centuries. This kids are really really good
For how tall 11 is, he really should have secured more rebounds. All he did was tip and poke at the ball instead of going up and grabbing it.
Let’s go, San Diego State Aztecs baby. We hit those 👌 and play defense.
People want to blame the refs. Was it a foul. Yes. Should it have been called in this situation, who knows. It's 50/50. But give credit where it's due. Aztecs defense shut them down the 2nd half. Held them to 23 points and 28% from the field. 0-10 from 3 point. Creighton is a great team, but you need to put the blame on them as well for not executing and give SDSU props for its smothering defense.
Agree..... SDSU D grinded them down in the 2nd half....you could tell they were getting winded and then could not make shots
'Smothered, grinding D'...SD fouled and played 'jungle ball' the ENTIRE game with no calls. That's why it was close. Then the refs want to get technical? BS
Wow these two teams🎉 its begining to be a lil bit of a rivary last year in ot Creighton won this year controversy hopfully they make more turneys then they can face eachother more.Let it Fly CU! Go Jays!
and oh yeah a foul is a foul so call it.because if was the other way around we would be cheering right now saying it was a good call.😅
5 vs 9 and 5 vs 4, the final four boutta be crazy 🔥 I think uconn take it but I'm rooting for fau
The door is wide open take your pick I like door number 4 to win it easy. 🐶
I think UConn beats Miami by about 15 and wins the natty by 20 with absolutely no trouble
@@andrewblakeslee8709You were close lol.
What a bizarre finish. Congrats SDSU.
Lamont Butler for San Diego State was locked in.
SDSU Alumni Got to Love It

'don't come to San Diego State if you don't want to play D!!!!'
Exactly......expect a low scoring game with D grind...that is the Aztec way
The foul call ruined the game. It is a foul, but it was literally called only at that point. Far worse was done and whistles were swallowed. I have zero dog in the fight. I do feel for Creighton though.
The big Kalk got blocked many times during the game 😂😂
SDSU defense is ELITE. I mean Championship defense. they may win it all.
GOOOO AZTECS!!!!
San Diego State HELD Alabama to 23 points in the 1st Half and Creighton to 23 points in the second half. 23 points Alabama and Creighton - WOW!
let's gooooo san diege st.!!! FINAL FOUR!!!
What a bizarre tournament this year. San Diego St vs FAU Miami vs UConn
Disgusting call by the ref to end the game like this
Ok forget about the foul. But how did they decide that the game was over?! Clearly was time left on a clock.
I think part of it was the clock didn't start when they touched it on inbound
Prolly cuz it was Aztec ball why waste time it's over GG booyyyy
yee human error left time on the clock, they reviewed it after the final touch (which was Creighton’s, So SDSU ball either way) but time was already done either way
Took a stopwatch and replayed it. Clock operator was a bit slow and time had actually expired.
Tipped ball on the inbounds left 0.3 ticks on the clock. Plus, Creighton stepped on the baseline inbounding the ball...violation, Aztec ball. Too much to decipher within 0.3 ticks...unless your Derrick Fisher against the Spurs, you can't get a shot off even if you stole the Aztec's ensuing inbounds pass. The refs smartly saw that 0.2 secs was a moot point for both teams...game over.
Regarding the last play, you can be more physical when you're trying to play good defense but when you just get burned you can't then just shove the guy in the back. Right call
UCON will NoT be stopped. They will Crush anyone and Anything. 💪
What I love about sdsu is EVERYONE on that team plays defense. One guy goes out, the other guy plays just as well. They may not be offensive juggernauts but the defense they play is undeniable
PUTTING ON FOR THE MOUNTAIN WEST
The Aztecs are tough on both ends 💯
SD State...let's go!!!!
