I also saw them take a look at a "flagrant foul" where the offensive player made a pass into the post, but the defender guarding the passer took an elbow to the face because he was all up in the passer's business....If its not intentional or malicious, then its not flagrant.

Last night, Craft technically should have gotten a flagrant...but it was not intended to hurt the offensive player. He raised the ball above his head and it was a situation where we had to foul, so craft aggressively went after the ball with the intention of fouling and sending them to the line.

Nevertheless, great game by the buckeyes. I was real proud of our effort and its a shame we had to lose

Rules are rules, my friend...
