Wanna bet? Fans can always blame a loss on a call.

One was a missed judgement call...the other was a misapplication of the rules. Two different categories.

Fans will blame the first call on the game for the outcome. Who cares what fans think. No one call ever changes the outcome of a game. There are too many plays that if gone one way or the other have the same result.

Peace

Two wrongs dont make it right & it will be interesting to see if they advance. You would think somebody on the crew knows its a CE or at least a buddy would call to help out.

Someone want to explain to these jokers why a player can't run in from outside the 3-point line on the release?

Uhmmm because its not the NBA?

Or because players not along the lane lines have the same restriction as the shooter?

They need a rules expert sitting in the studio to help them when they're too stupid to know the rule.

The crew looked bad on the out of bounds play right after this. The announcers are right -- either call the foul or call the OOB correctly. Film don't lie.

Yep. I don't think we'll see them on Saturday. Too bad, Corbett is a past Nat'l Champ. official.

That's the problem with having NBA guys working NCAA games...that play would be completely legal in a pro game.

They apply NBA rules to NCAA games...that was why Reggie Miller was going haywire on this play...same with Charles Barkley.
