SFA vs. VCU

[incognitoh]

I may be missing something, but at the end of regulation with less than 10 seconds, VCU was called for a foul on a made 3 point shot, allowing SFA to tie the game and go into overtime.

Based on all the replays I saw, I am not even sure that the defensive guy touched the shooter.

Did I miss it entirely or was that a terrible call???

[jhack704]

maybe after he came down, bad call imo

[TeeRose]

He knocked the guy down, making it a 4 point play to tie the game up, good job SFA

It was clearly a phantom foul. Never touched the guy on the shot....maybe after he fell to the floor on his own. Bad call....and I didn't have a dime on it.

Tough to knock a guy down when he didn't touch him...lol They are showing the replays closely now and the commentators are talking about how it was not a foul. They are blaming the guy for even contesting the shot with a 4 pt lead, which I can't argue with...lol.

[face]

player dove and the ref bought it i guess
they teach them to do that for that very reason, they practice diving, it's part of the game

[TeeRose]

It was great acting, Hollywood style. I thought he had touched him

[DrStale]

I'd say he "touched" him but it's still a call that doesn't get whistled 90% of the time

Defender was dumb putting himself in that spot.

Good for SFA backers..

It was Refs professionalism here, it's better to have them go overtime and battle it out then question that 1 point WHAT IF??? What If??

LOL only for ML SFA backers; I had VCU ML and SFA +6.5 so I would have been fine with no call and lose by 1 (or 3 if they fouled and they made the FT's...lol).

Looked phantom but they didn't show many replays during the game...couldn't they have reviewed that since it was under 2 minutes?

They can't review fouls.
