    MAAC suspends 3 refs for clock error

    The Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference has suspended the three officials who worked Sunday's Rider-Niagara game where a late clock error changed the outcome.

    The MAAC said in a statement Monday that the officials -- listed on the box score as Rusty Cooper, Tony Crisp and Kenneth Clark -- will miss one game for failure to note the game clock starting early on the key inbounds play in the final seconds.

    Ali Langford's dunk with 3.7 seconds left gave Niagara an 84-82 lead. Following a Rider timeout, the game clock started before the Broncs inbounded the ball but it wasn't noticed. Jonathon Thompson hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer that would have given Rider the win, but after a TV review, officials ruled time had expired before Thompson released the shot.

    The MAAC also publicly reprimanded Niagara's game clock operator and replay system operator for failure to manage the clock and replay system in the expected manner. A school spokesman did not release the names of the two on Monday.

    The win came six days after Brandon Penn's 3-pointer with 1 second left gave Rider a 74-73 win over Niagara.

    What an inconsequential game on a national scale. Now the gambling possibilities have an effect globally.

    I have season tickets for the Fairfield Stags, they play within walking distance from my condo, let me tell you something, I have seen some calls that would make you scratch the hair out of your scalp.

    I have seen clock shot operators literally asleep at the table, clock won't run until the ball is at half court.........

    i believe it.

    a few years ago when i was gambling big time (yes broke now ) and paying attention to all the games these lines were all over the map. even this year spreads routinely move 3-5 points every game and i cant tell wtf is going on.

    people can laugh at me if they want. i dont have any proof. i dont watch any games. i dont know if its the refs coaches players etc, all i know is these lines are consistently too crazy to be a coincidence
