UT - USC - Awful Officiating

[Adam]

Paco, why don't you describe one or two of the missed fouls, or better yet, post a link to a video.

What makes you think your judgment on those fouls is better than the officials on the court? And, if they missed them, what makes you think you wouldn't have?

If we questioned the officials every time a coach got confused....

Since the OP mentioned flying elbows I'll address one call I'm sure he thinks was missed but replay showed was a great no-call.

Tenn = A
USC = B

A1 gets called for a team control foul in its frontcourt. Subsequent possession B misses shot and A1 gathers rebound. B1 contests A1. A1 turns his torso just as B1 starts leaning in head-first. A1 and B1 knock heads and B1 immediately stumbles back. After B1 has started stumbling back A1's elbow comes up high with continued turning of A1's torso. Absolutely no contact is made by A1's elbow to B1. No call is made.

Live action from the main camera angle one would assume that the new trail should have called a PC on A1 for elbowing B1. However, a replay shown from behind the players clearly showed the action I bolded above. The trail was right on top the play and made a great "no-call". The trail was also the person who called the TC foul on A1 in the previous possession.

Good officiating as far as I could see.
