The link showing the article from KNDU, if I remember right, does have a video attached but it shows so fast that details can't be seen so easily.

But I posted the same video link that you just did back in post #2.

Sorry, Nevada,

I posted the link before looking, my bad.

Tim,

I'm not arguing about the call. I know they called it right. It's the media & some other fans (those that have no real understanding of the rules/regulations) that are saying that WSU got cheated out of the victory.

And if they hadn't called it, all the other team's papers would be saying that the "no call" cheated them out of a victory. It goes with the territory. :shrug:

Very true, as like you mentioned, if the call hadn't been made the media that covers UO Athletics would of been saying the same things & the UO fans would be thinking/saying the same things.

Which is why we don't make calls based on what the media/school/coach/players will think.

Agreed! Calls should be made in accordance with the rules. I don't particularly care what the media/school/coach/players think - it's simply not relevant......
