But they can overturn a GT call that cost us 2 pts and then took the ball away from us.
I wouldn't think about it too much. It's a ridiculous rule that has great potential to punish the offensive team
The problem is they wait until the next media timeout to review it. If it were a goal tend then A&M gets the ball like they would after a basket. That part made sense. The problem is in reality that steals a possession from the offensive team if the goal tending call is overturned and they possessed the ball after the block. Whoever made this rule just didn't think through all the scenarios.
That’s not on the refs, it’s just a bad rule. The rule is messed up because Ugo got the ball off the blocked shot that was called the goaltending, but it was called dead, and we were awarded 2 points (that would be taken away) and they took the ball out of bounds based off that.
Ironically, the rule is in place because we were on the wrong side of a goal tending call against LSU a few years ago.
Yeah, he was about to put it back in. Cost us two points and they said that on the TV.
Can you explain all the walks that AM got away with in critical situations? Is putting your head down and taking multiple steps ok if you force contact at the end? Thanks Jay.
Nope. I can't. Also can't explain that offensive foul on the made 3 in OT that took 3 points off the board, either.
You didn’t see the guy kick his leg out in an attempt to draw a foul? Was absolutely an offensive foul. They just rarely call it correctly.
Wade Taylor wraps his arm around Reed at 1 second left. He’s blocked from view, but Radford is probably fouling on the backside too. They should have put a little more time on the clock, but Reed was fouled.
Doesn’t change that the call was right. Bilas crying about it doesn’t help.
The A&M guy kicked his leg out to try to make contact and draw the foul. What he did is a foul on the shooter. Usually not called in college but frequently called in NBA.
It is really that simple. The spirit of the rule is supposed to speed up play but how many times during the course of a game does that particular scenario come up. Yesterday it was one time. I’m not sure why that scenario differs from the basket interference call they made on A&M for which they did stop play to review and confirmed their call to be correct. Took maybe :30 seconds at best.
Bilas has this masterful style of sounding like the foremost authority on basketball, whether he is being sincere or is 100% full of crap.

Exactally....That 2 points and the ball would have made a difference. we win in regulation and maybe have scored on the posession. Thank you Pat Adams. and whomever made those rules.
What do you mean I watched it a bunch of times and it was clearly a foul.
What do you mean? I don't think it was. And is almost never called in that situation anyway.
lol go watch again bub he was hacked and held. You are just taking Bilas’s word for it instead of watching it through.
For sure what you posted. Whomever dreamed this rule up didn't think it all the way thru. Thanks for your broadsight...
You’re exactly right! Three steps before the “supposed” foul went uncalled. Refs have gone blind when it comes to calling traveling. It started in the NBA and has filtered down to college.
