Usually you see this type of thing missed after the player gets rid of the ball.

I guess they figured the Illinois player hit the ball.

Either that or the face is part of ball.
Are you serious? It was incidental contact that occured on a rebound/loose ball. I don't think I would call it a smack either. This happens quite often without a whistle. And quite often there shouldn't be a whistle like last night.
