opinions on a call from last night
in the Bucknell/KU game the ref called an intentional foul on a Bucknell player in a crucial moment that gave KU 2 free's and the ball, it was a good call, but, is often not called for whatever reasons
in the Okie St./Arizona game last night, with 2.8 seconds left the same type play took place when an Arizona player reached from behind and gave their last non-free-shooting foul to stop the clock, it wasn't called intentional, Bilas pointed out, as I was thinking, 'that could have been called intentional'
in both cases the games were close and were on the line, why is it in one an intentional and not an intentional in the other?
interested in honest opinions. thank you.

Because there is judgement involved. Referees are required to make many split-second decisions in every game, many of which are going to be debateable by fans (don't forget htat fans is short for fanatics). You know how you fans tell if a call was correct? If it favored their team.
Individuals without reffing experience on a high level just have no clue about officiating. Here you are, a complete novice and you're analyzing NCAA officiating. I can't decide if it's as funny as it is pathetic.

Actually, Zebe, I thought it was a fairly well worded question. It's relatively neutral, with not a lot of strong feeling one way or the other.
I'm with BITS on this one. Cut the guy a little slack. After Kentucky plays, with Hess working, THEN we'll know what the core is made of!
