NCAA official -- Refs didn't see TV broadcast view of out-of-bounds video replay

I prefer the conspiracy angle much more than this if this is the actual truth.

I have to believe that's true because I'm assuming the commentators were watching the refs feed rather than what we were seeing given they also couldn't see the obvious finger movement.

But the commentators did mention seeing the ball turn from his finger hitting it.

I don't remember hearing that - although we also had the joy down under of having the Spanish audio feed bleed into the US audio commentary feed for most of the second half of the game.

I wondered if anyone else noticed that or if I was just a grumpy old S.O.B.

I also wondered whether that post-game hallway interview was par for his course or if that was just a one-off really whiny thing.

Bo knows whining.

hmmmmmm. I thought they just reviewed the broadcast feed??? How many times have we seen the refs watching themselves on the monitor after a replay on their little monitors??

Well, if you believe the guy the conclusive angle was shown juuuuust after the refs walked away, and he almost called them back but decided against it. I don't buy it as I think it was pretty conclusive before that (should have been obvious from the first replay I saw), I think they just missed the call.

And that gets to the complete absurdity of having the refs review a broadcast feed on a tiny screen at the side of the court with both coaches, teams and the world watching. The NCAA doesn't make enough money to have a couple of guys in a situation room watching it with a DVR and a few 60 inch TV's?

Bo's comments regarding the reffing calling the game looser for his team vs the second half is accurate. If you watch the first half, his team played barely any different defensively. He admitted this his players didn't adjust to the referees and he said that he didn't like the major differences between the two halves with the difference of the way it was reffed. I agree with the sentiment.

If you watch it again, the Badgers were called for tiny bumps in the second half, whereas Duke was allowed to ride coattails of Badger players while they were dribbling.

The game was a great one. I don't really have a sour taste, if you have a 9 point lead, you should be able to overcome whatever is thrown at you. Duke played greatdown the stretch, Badgers did not.
