Other Sports Did anyone just see the St. Johns vs Rutgers game? - Page 2

The fix was in, obviously.

**Buck** · 03-09-2011, 04:23 PM

Apparently the O/U was 128.5 and the final score was 65-63 which is 128.

I don't see a foul. I do see the dipshit from St Johns run OOB's before the clock expired with the ball with about 1 second left on the clock

It was a failure on the Rutgers coach's part for not even noticing what happened. If he had, though, I'm not sure whether it would have made any difference.

There were two fouls the two previous possessions that weren't called.

Its not in that vid. If you watch the last 10 seconds or so of game time then you'll see the 2 uncalled fouls.

Bad call but ultimately - I don't care.

A) Rutgers probably still doesn't hit the shot.

B) Even if they do, we're talking about the 13 seed in a loaded Big East tournament advancing to the quarters so they can get mauled by whoever the play.

Yeah, it was a bad call, but in the grand scheme of things, it just doesn't matter.

A) Rutgers should have had about 4 free throws on uncalled fouls

B) Technically throwing the ball into the stands is a Technical so they should have got 2 more free throws and the ball back

C) Had Rutgers won this game and one more they would be eligible for the NIT.

Buck is right, Rutgers should have won that game for all of those reasons.

This.

I saw it on twitter on the drive home.

**mikeyis4dcats.** · 03-09-2011, 04:39 PM

the clock on screen is not the official game clock, but generally there isn't THAT much difference, and the horn hadn't sounded.

Screw job.

Oh c'mon - uncalled fouls happen on every other possession. That hardly makes for a travesty. Nobody would've said a thing about uncalled fouls had the screwup at the very end not happened. There damn sure wouldn't be a thread around here on it.

And throwing the ball into the stands gets called as a technical about once a year. The fact that a kid thought the game was over and slung one out of bounds clearly doesn't qualify. Further, all technicals are at a ref's discretion and if there's no intent behind the act, the technical isn't appropriate.

Had Rutgers hit a miracle 3, they'd have won. That's it - the fouls are what they are, I'm sure there were uncalled fouls in favor of Rutgers previously. I'm not going to get up in arms about them. And even if Rutgers hits the shot, do you honestly think they were going to beat Pitt?

It's much ado about nothing. Bad call, but ultimately inconsequential. I'd be furious were I a fan of Rutgers, but I'm not - so I don't care.

**Buck** · 03-09-2011, 04:41 PM

The Big East put out a statement saying that neither the Travel nor the Step out of bounds are reviewable or correctable under NCAA playing rules.

Rutgers should have had a chance to launch a 3-point heave as time expired. That's it.

I care about the integrity of the game, not whether either team has a chance at winning the championship. If that was the case then the NFL should just crown the Steelers or Pats at the beginning of every year.

Neither of them are not reviewable? So they should have been reviewed? Or did they say that neither of them are reviewable?
