I am, however, trying to imagine the uproar if this call hadn't been made. ESPN guy (not sure who) stated (paraphrasing), "you hate to see the officials determine the outcome like this, but it's clearly a foul."
There was a lot worse passed on during the game.

Talked to a friend of mine this morning. Told him I thought it was pretty clean, actually. He said, "but the defense got beat badly and it looked like a foul -- they're going to call that." And he's not an official.
