Interesting no-call on a "trip" . 7:55 remaining first half.

Hey Wolfman. Can you play "Colour My World", by Chicago, dedicated to Debbie?

I have no idea whether the defender clipped the ball-handler's heel, but if not he tripped himself and then pushed the ball-handler down.

It appears he clipped his heel.

He definitely did not push the defender after tripping - he and the defender start going down at the same time, and it does appear (to me) that what caused them both to trip simultaneously was the defender stepping on the offensive player.

I've got incidental contact here. What, you want to penalize the defensive player just for running behind the offensive player?

Good no-call.

I know this is NCAA and I do not know the NCAA rule set, but do you hold the same opinion in FED?

This is one of those examples where you have to know there was contact before calling the foul. I had to run it back a few times before I was convinced there was a trip. Considering the lead's angle, I can easily see why no call was made.

Fiasco's statement is ridiculous. The defender tripped the offensive player. This cannot be incidental contact, and should be called a foul on any level.

[twocentsworth]

this is easy....this is a FOUL every day of the week and THREE times on Sunday!

Not sure what the lead was thinking (must have been surprised by it), but that is a foul. If I'm C - I'm blowing my whistle and then receiving a "long-distance" "thumbs up" from John Adams back in Indy!

Seriously? The player behind is responsible for contact. He's not just running behind the player, he's running into the player from behind.

This is what I was have. The contact may be accidental, but not incidental. A clear advantage was gained from the contact.

No, you want to penalize the defender for knocking down the offensive player which is what he did.

If the offensive player had been the only one to fall I would say the kid tripped over his own feet but since the defender also fell - and they fell at the same time - there had to be some contact. Putting a late whistle on this wouldn't have been optimal but it would've been better than nothing at all.
