Trailing by 19 points in the final minute, Middle Tennessee State was assessed a technical foul for trying to call a timeout when they didn't have any left (memories of Chris Webber in the 1993 NCAA Final immediately come to mind). Tennessee made the 2 free throws to push the lead to 21 points and killed the clock to end the game with the 21 point win. Big deal, you say? Well to those betting on either team it was HUGE - Tennessee was 20.5 point favorites and the 2 free throws allowed them to barely cover - wonder what the Vegas bookies thought of that?

Half were pissed off and half were happy, is my guess.
 

only vegas thugs, wise guys, and degenerates would care about something so meaningless.
