I think the officials were giving Georgia a chance to foul
legitimately, but in abscence of a legit foul, had no other choice but to call the intentional.
Especially when another Georgia player POINTS IT OUT to the
official!
Surely, you are not saying that a chuck/impede away from the ball calls for an intentional foul? I would hate to think that because it is the last seconds of a ball game that any foul away from the ball would automatically deemed intentional, we would be making hefty assumptions on intent instead of calling what we see, I believe. I still think it was a good call in the Georgia game, though.
