Yeah!!!!!!
The intentional foul was finally called in a big-time NCAA game when a team fouled just to stop the clock. It was called against Mich. St. v. Texas with under a minute left for a foul on purpose away from the ball. [Edited by Nevadaref on Mar 30th, 2003 at 06:54 PM] |

It was a good call and the proper call.
The Michigan State player did not at all play the ball and just grabbed a player away from the action. Great call, no matter when the situation was. I know people say that "we do not want the officials do decide the game." But the player decided the game by being stupid and just grabbing the player.
Peace

Dumbass play by the Michigan State player.
Great call. Also good commentary (for a change) from Matt Goukas, who said Tom Izzo likely told the player to foul, but meant foul when the guy had the ball. How about the blown "over and back" call they had to correct as an inadvertent whistle? Some tense moments handled well by the crew, I thought.

While I saw the names at the start of the game: Gerald Boudreaux, Hicks, and someone else, I only recognized Boudreaux. He is the one that corrected the call. It clearly was the airborne exception during a throw-in. Since I don't know the other guys by sight, I can't say who botched it.

It also made for some confusion with the AP.
According to the sideline reporter, they used AP when the bogus over-and-back was called...and then they had a tie-up right after that, and I think the arrow was not switched, so the AP call contradicted the arrow or something. When the whistle went, the MS player had possession of the ball....you don't use AP in this sitch, do you?

The confusion with the AP was with the table and the announcers. The officials did not use the AP for the inadvertant whistle. They simply gave it back to Mich. State. The table however was unclear as to why the officials did that because at the time of that play the arrow pointed in MS's favor, so they thought that maybe the officials had looked at the arrow and given the ball to Mich. State because of that. Therefore, when the held ball occurred right after that, the table called the officials over to clarify whether the arrow was correct or not. It was since they did not switch it and it was still Mich. State that was due possession.
The announcer started babbling and what he said came out total gibberish. He should have just shut-up because he didn't know the rule. |

I wondered about that, because they showed the table guys throwing up their hands in confusion...the reporter was clearly confused as well.

And Then There Were Three
As the NCAA tournament moves on to their Final Four, we move on to the final three. That is, determining the three officials who will referee the championship game. There is much to learn by watching the tournament, regardless of which level you officiate. See what tips Officiating.comÂ’s own Bradley Batt picked up when he made the trip to this yearÂ’s NCAA MenÂ’s South Regional in San Antonio. |
