Did you hear about yesterday’s UCLA-Arizona baseball game on the Pac-12 Network? In the 10th inning, the broadcast lost its announcer. Apparently, he had a flight to catch and there was only crowd noise for the rest of the game.
Only in the Pac-12.
- Speaking of screw ups, the 3-point lines are different at the NCAA regionals in Portland. Amazing. Here is how it looked for the USC-Baylor game too. How does this happen?
Who goofed? I’ve got to know! (Jim Healy reference).

The NCAA has released a statement saying it will fix the court before the USC-UConn game.

It’s amazing that the Pac 12 didn’t survive, it was such a well run conference.
Thanks Larry. Thanks George

Notice how the “news” reports cleverly left out the amount of difference between the 3 point lines?

It would be nice to know what the 3pt % were in each half of the 2 teams in each game played there to this point as to which team was shooting from which end and what that effect was on %s. Though there are other factors too, it would be nice if our investigative reporter could do a dive on that.

John — The ‘problem’ takes care of itself if officials “review the tape” [maybe Clay Helton can help out] and award the disadvantaged team 3 points for balls that came within a quarter inch of dropping.
