LSU upset Kentucky Tuesday night, and the final shot of the game is bound to have some fans extremely upset.

With the game tied 71-71, LSU player Kavell Bigby-Williams tipped the ball in after a missed shot by teammate Skylar Mays. The basket gave the Tigers a 73-71 victory as time expired.

However, there’s probably a very strong argument to be made here that it was actually offensive goaltending. Watch the video below and decide for yourself.

According to rules analyst Gene Steratore, that was absolutely offensive goaltending on LSU.

To be honest with you, I actually agree with Steratore on this one, but I also don’t care because I love watching Kentucky lose. Watching them get screwed is even funnier.

I’m sure fans in Kentucky wanted to burn the state to the ground after the refs didn’t blow the whistle on Bigby-Williams. There’s really nothing more entertaining than pissed off Kentucky fans. They’re truly a breed of their own. (RELATED: Tennessee And Duke Lead Latest AP College Basketball Poll, Wisconsin Drops To 20)

Oh well! A loss is a loss.
