I love how everybody cries and moans for more instant replay to "get it right", then when instant replay is used to make the cal, they still moan and groan...just makes me laugh.....

Yep... this is a no win. Remember, the officials HAVE to make a call on the floor, then can go to replay to review. Having seen the play, it is so close that it is really hard to referee without replay assistance.

Here's some video...
Here's the video from the game and freezes provided by ESPNU. I also put in a ten-second freeze of the moment the LED light goes on. Discuss

I'm not saying this is right but I speculate that the call was close enough it was easier to wave it off and play overtime. That way the players were determining the outcome of the game. Note: I don't agree with this but have a feeling that is what was going through their minds.

As far as the officials are concerned:
Pac-12 coordinator of officials Ed Rush issued the following statement on Friday: "Game officials reviewed video replays of the end of regulation in accordance with NCAA playing rules and determined the ball was still on the shooters' fingertips when the official game clock on the floor expired. Per Conference protocol, the officials conducted a thorough review court side and viewed multiple angles of the play before confirming the ruling. I have reviewed the video replays and agree with the ruling." |
