Really? See, I think the long pass/catch was probably the one I would've called a foul (from the comfort of my stool at Hooters, which is where I actually watched the ending). Looked like the St. John's player went right through the Rutgers player to knock the ball clear.

Just goes to show that the no calls weren't simply "the Big East philosophy of no amputation, no foul" but were difficult plays to rule on.

They both jumped into each other. Not sure who you would call the foul on. Neither had the ball and the contact put neither at a big advantage or disadvantage. It was a poorly executed play.

Peace

And I was on record yesterday agreeing with that. Good, experienced officials aren't going to bail out a shooter jumping into somebody. And if the defender isn't knocked down,you won't see a charge either.

When they get their evaluations on this game, that no-call will be a + imo.

And I can see the reason for passing on it. To me, it appeared the Rutgers player had position and was bumped from behind.

We can nitpick the other stuff to death -- the only thing that got really messed up was the last 1.7 seconds.

Amen. If the last play gets called, the officiating never gets mentioned.

Except by Jay Bilas who seemed more focussed on the alleged fouls that were missed in the last minute.

I would disagree with you too. Burr as the new Trail has responsibility for the line that Brownlee stepped out on so that is in his PCA, although I agree that in transition Higgins should have helped him on the OOB call.

Here's another comment from Mr. Adams, nothing earth shattering though.

I'm with Rut. Who is the guy in front of the St John's bench? Higgins or Burr? THAT is the guy who was apparently straight-lined.

The previously posted video showed just 1:09 of coverage; this one shows 3 minutes. It also shows the plays, one under each basket, that many feel were missed foul calls.

Higgins is in front of the St John's bench.

For clarification:

Jim Burr



Tim Higgins

On the dribble drive by the Rutgers player, I most definitely have a foul on the defender.

That's what I was thinking. A still photo doesn't prove anything, but this one is suggestive:

That to me was the second easiest call. I was absolutely shocked there was no call and a bit confused how some are defending the no call on this one.
