NCAA: Tripping Over a Defender

[QUOTE=Color guy says its an automatic foul anytime a dribbler trips over a defender.[/QUOTE]

He also made the comment that because "the referees missed the call, Coach Kruger should be allowed to blow off steam" and "the referees are doing a good job of not assessing a technical foul because they made the mistake" and "hopefully this game doesn't come down to one possession the referees took away from UNLV."

I'm with Nevada on this one. It appeared the defender (who was leaving the ball handler) had his foot on the floor and the offensive player stepped on that foot, causing him to go down and lose the ball OOB.

Did Kentucky not want to play an NIT game in Rupp Arena (after their long run of NCAA tournament appearances), hence the the game was played Memorial Arena?
