Kentucky gets two unearned points vs ND?

I don't do Facebook,but had a video shown to me today. I think the score was ND17 to 19 at the time. The video was very bad as the guy recorded his TV using a cell phone. K had gone up for a shot and had a ND player block it when an arm made the net move. 2 pts were awarded though ND had just rebound and no one had to inbound the ball. It appears that all the players and officials knew it was nothing as they all just turned and went back down the court. Was this error corrected later? Can anyone find and post the video? ND lost the game by 2 pts. Thanks

I really hope you are not taking a videos word for what was in the scorebook. Officials should know better.

Peace

Yes, the TV scoreboard was corrected later. The play-by-play clearly indicates that after 19-17 ND ties the score at 19-19.

Ummm, the play-by-play also shows this: 7:42 Karl-Anthony Towns missed Jumper.

Why would anybody go by a TV scoreboard when they have a play-by-play that accurately depicts the actual score?

Because fans are stupid. They have no sense whatsoever.

They don't where to view the play by play log. Perhaps you should post a helpful link.

For that matter, they only needed to watch a few more seconds of the game video to see the score go back down. Someone was just looking to complain. Notice that the guy who made the video had cardboard taped over his web cam like a true conspiracy nut.

Too many think that the time / score / PA / TOs left on the TV screen are somehow "official."

It's much like when the scoreboard at the HS game is wrong and some fan yells incessantly about it as if you should stop the game immediately to check / correct.

Wrong score was on the scoreboard at the beginning of a sixty second timeout. Crowd complained and we immediately went to the table to confirm. Yes, the score on the scoreboard was wrong. The problem was that the score could not be changed as the scoreboard was counting down the sixty seconds timeout. Crowd continued to get restless. A police officer came onto the court to get us to change the score. I thought that we were going to get beat up by the crowd, or worse, arrested by the cop.
