farmteam Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 07:39 PM) Michigan State and Purdue out. Iowa State the only big school left within driving distance of the UC. might be some empty seats next weekend My cousin, who went to Purdue, snagged a pair of tickets last week. He'll still be going, he's just not as excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan99 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Horrid officiating. Niang has gotten away with 2 unbelievably obvious fouls. Refs being too big of p*****s to call him for his 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Iowa state was dumb as hell to go into that desperate trap with 3 min left. Regular defensive sets would have been much more effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blew that ten second call I'm pretty sure. Another game where team starts trapping and gets to be very physical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabiness42 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) Blew that ten second call I'm pretty sure. Another game where team starts trapping and gets to be very physical. You mean where the ball stayed in the backcourt for 10 seconds? I don't have the rule in front of me, but I don't think a defensive player touching the ball in the frontcourt stops the count.

The ball looked like it crossed the half court line. Nevertheless it was sort of a Northern Iowa Ultra Lite collapse if this were a beer.

It did cross, but it never touched an offensive player, and I think that's required to stop the count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying you're right or wrong but the announcers would be wrong since they said Syracuse caught a break there. I took games and officiating as a class like 10 years ago, but forgot what the rule is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from a friend who is a HS ref: If the ball is in the air when the count hits ten, and an offensive player is the first one to touch it in the front court, it's not a violation, but if a defensive player touches it first, then it is.
