Umm, that would make me think the official got it right.

Except that announcers think everything is a block.

Elbow of the paint. MSU offensive player drives in, leading with the shoulder, and displaces the UW player. Official calls a block on the on UW player.

That's what I meant. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

I disagree with the call based on what I saw. Should have been no call or PC on the MSU player.

This type of block / charge play came up on another thread. At the D1 level, whether you like it or not 90% of the officials are going to call a block if the defender doesn't "take" the charge. You can argue all you want that the rules doesn't state that ( Billy Mac will be outraged) but that is the reality.....

Easy block....offensive player can't come down.

I see a defensive foul coming down on the arms.

That's not the play I was thinking of.

Looking at that play, seems like a block or maybe illegal use of hands (extends arms as the defender is backpeddling). Easy defensive foul call IMO.

I wish I had marked the time of the play I was thinking of. Oh well.

The torsos didn't even touch. There was at least a foot of space between them at the closest point. It can't be a block if they don't touch. There might have been slight knee to knee contact which could be a block but I have illegal use of hands.

Just give the cheating signal.

The whole notion of giving the "wrong" signal is just silly to me.
