A&M....Rebound!!

How many chances you wanna give Memphis?

Plus that was a weak foul to call there. very weak

mike4cy · 03-22-2007, 08:44 PM

But it was a foul, none the less.

It was a foul, but you have to get the rebound. Add that to Acie's missed layup, and you lose. What a shame, because I think that they could have beaten OSU. Memphis has no chance.

2.0!!!!!!!?????? WTF

PlymouthCy · 03-22-2007, 08:48 PM

I don't understand them taking the clock down to two seconds. I was thinking along the lines of Raftery, a couple of tenths.

Yeah..... Not really sure how they can take 1.1 off of that....

Oh they were robbed beyond belief. 1.1 seconds off the clock for that? At most .2 comes off. Robbery. Fill out the police report, I'll be an eye witness.

What a choke job by the refs, they let Callipari talk them into that.
I didn't see much of the game, but look at the free throw differential, and something doesn't add up.
But at least Rafferty is there to back up the officials like in 2000 during the Michigan State game.

That ball maaaaybe took 1.1 seconds to go 2-3 feet.
in slow motion.
and even that's a stretch

I picked Memphis to go all the way last year, and they choke early. This year, I pick Memphis to choke early, and now they're going to the Elite 8. Dammit all!

The thing the announcers missed is that the ball was not immediately deflected out of bounds. When the ball bounced off the floor it was still in bounds. That is where the 1.1 comes from.

mike4cy · 03-22-2007, 08:54 PM

Again, clock starts when a player touches the ball.

I thought that at first as well. But if you watch closely the ball hits Calapari very quickly. 1.1 was a joke but did not have any impact on the game.

A&M rebounded well all game til the end. I will stick w/ my stance that you just don't call a chippy foul like that with 3 seconds left in a big game like that

They probably thought slo-mo was real-time. That's the only sane explanation. Besides the hummer in locker room from the Memphis coach after the game.

I will stick with my stance that you couldn't pay me enough to ever think about reffing a college basketball game. i still think that Oden should have had an intentional foul called on him the other day.
