Today, Syracuse came away with a narrow 63-61 win over West Virginia. But if you ask any Mountaineer fan, they would tell you that their team was flat out robbed due to a huge blown call by the referees. With a little over 10 seconds remaining, Deniz Kilicli's put back attempt was blocked by Baye Moussa Keita, which consequently, sealed the victory for the Orange. But was the rejection legit? After watching the replay, you can clearly see Keita's hand go through the rim. The refs missed a clear goaltending call and cost the WV a huge opportunity at upsetting the #3 team in the nation. Not. Cool.
