Holy cow.

Chris Paul of Wake punches Julius Hodge right in the coin purse in the 1st half and gets away with it. He would have been ejected on the spot, but the officials didn't see it. Then Paul hits the game winning shot at the buzzer and possibly knocks NC State out of the NCAA tournament.

NCAA replay rules allow the officials to review video to see if punches have been thrown. In fact, I remember John Higgins stopping a live ball during a Kansas game this year to review for such an offense.

Obviously, if the officials have no idea that it happened at all, they won't look at the tape. I'm really surprised that somebody on the NC State bench didn't ask the officials to review the video.

I can't imagine a crew not checking for that if requested...
