Foul call at end of Cinci/UConn game

[Rufus]

Disclaimer - I'm a UConn grad and fan.

I thought the call was marginal as well but justifiable. He may not have had the best look at the call but he sold it (BTW, was anyone else ticked at the ESPN announcer who kept saying "He's calling the second contact! Do you see how his hand goes up at the second, not first, contact?" We're talking fractions of a second and she's wanting instantaneous. Ok, end of rant). Both my son and I thought .7 was a bit of a gift, actually, since it appeared there was only .3 on the clock when the contact occurred (couldn't hear the whistle in the replays).

Personally I thought they missed a play about 30 seconds earlier when the shot clock was reset during a scrum for the ball. They gave the ball back to Cincy with 1 second on the shot clock (and UConn almost let them score with the inbound from backcourt!) so it ended up being not a big deal I guess.

Finally, I agree the crew did a good job overall. On separate plays they called a carry and a throw-in violation (moving beyond 3 foot box - not sure if the rule is the same in NCAA as HS but that's what it looked like) on Cincy that I don't think I've ever seen called in a D1 game before.
