This is a foul on the defender. This is seeing the whole play though. I have no called it before, but only because i saw a player undoubtedly make a little contact with the defender and then seperated and once separated I saw the offensive player lose their feet out from underneath him/her on their own.
Regardless if you judge the contact with feet getting tangled up as incidental, this puts the offensive player at a distinct disadvantage. I don't want to say always because you have treat each play as an individual play. To say always would be wrong, but I will say personally I have this as a foul 99% of the time.
The philosophy of calling this a foul is used by mostly everybody in college and is very evident in the pro game.
