Irony of the ref backing AK off the inbound pass?

One week too late!

I noticed that, too.

More than likely it was pointed out to all officials after the KU game and it is now a point of emphasis going forward. Still stings but at least they are trying to make it right going forward

That was sickening. We should have ignored the ref. What would they do?

We aren't Kansas, we would have gotten a tech

Back him off 5 yards. That was ironic to say the least.

The problem is the red fat blew it in Lawrnce got paid and have called two or three ga Es since then. There are virtually never. I sequences for officials once they reach the D-1 level.

Translation please?

The problem is the refs that blew it in Lawrence got paid and have called two or three games since then. There are virtually never any consequences for officials once they reach the D-1 level.

Exactly. I knew some would come here complaining about unequal treatment. It's good that the refs are working to insure the same mistake isn't made again.

It is good, but it's not as though the ref in the KU game didn't know the rule. He knew it and he even told Mason to back off, but he didn't enforce it.

Why in the world shouldn't fans feel free to point out the irony of an official moving our player back on a very similar play?

The biggest problem with that play is the ref told Ford the wrong location for the throw in, OSU burned a timeout setting up an in-bounds play on the baseline...which ended up being from the sideline. Huge deal for a coach.

As I recall, OSU didn't blow a timeout to set that play up. They didn't have any timeouts remaining by that point. Instead, they got a free timeout because the refs went to the monitor to review who touched the ball last. Had they not reviewed it, OSU wouldn't have had any chance to draw up a play.

I have thought for several years that the NCAA needs to adopt a rule that prevents teams from going to the sideline and speaking with the coaches during reviews, unless one of the teams chooses to use a timeout. It happens at least once at the end of every close game because refs use the monitors so often to review possession, time, whether a shot was a two or three, etc. A team that doesn't have any timeouts left shouldn't get a free one in those situations.

well done. Typing on my cell phone is very difficult for me and auto correct makes it worse.

Happy to help.

You're correct, they did not have one.

You don't actually know this. You are assuming it because the announcer said this.

 

[MsProudSooner]

Am I the only one who thinks that after taking all that time staring at the replay monitor, the refs still blew the call. It certainly looked like the OSU guy knocked the ball away from Buddy to me.

I thought so from the live angle, but wasn't so sure from another they showed.
