Wow, that's egregious. Refs missed a lot of fouls from Texas but called anything that remotely looked like a foul against us. What conference was this crew from? Never seen them before....guessing Big 12?

I think they were TASO refs.

This is the exact reason why it's hard to take CBB very seriously. They called a phantom foul on one end that had no business being called and then missed a literal take down on the other end 4 game seconds later. Incredible, but all too common in basketball.

I saw it on the replay. All the refs were watching the shot instead of doing their job apparently.

A question, is it the responsibility of all the ref's to watch the shot action? Or the are ref's suppose to be watching the "off ball action" if the shot does not fall in their area of the court? IN pro football the zebras have areas of responsibility (at least at the outset of a play). I just wonder if there is not a lot of deliberate fouling taught/done when the play/ball action is away from where a offending player is on the court. Sorta like boxers hitting low when the ref is on the "blind side of the foul".

I know what your responsibilities are with a 2 man crew, but I don’t know with a 3 man crew. However, yes, each official has an area of the floor to watch. With a 2 man crew, each one is always on the opposite side of each other, and your responsibility is half the court and to your left. So, if the ball is on your right half, you take the off the ball action.

I would assume a 3 man crew splits up the court 3 ways, so 1 should always be watching off the ball, and 2 are probably close to the ball.

So with this 3 man crew? How come this obvious action missed. Were one or two guys not doing their job?

Agree. It’s the WWE of college sports. They just make it up as they go.

I watched a replay of the foul on James and I actually do think it was a foul. I didn’t think so live but he reached in right as the player started to go up. That hit on ON was vicious though and that’s a flagrant any day of the week.

It happens. I was near the floor at the Vandy UT game. It is more physical than I realized. The game is also faster. Going to be missed calls.

They were not gonna decide the game with 1 second left. I thought it was a poorly called game overall.

I saw James reach in, but there was no angle I could see that showed he made contact with the arm. Possible he did, and possible he didn’t or just made contact with the ball. It was a very quick reach and pull back, so maybe James was trying to not just reach and rip, which is almost always called a foul.

I played HS BB and was a decent player but probably not college worthy .I say this to opine on this body block put on Olivier.If some one had hit me in this manner on the floor,if I wasn't knocked out,there would have been a scuffle for sure.One of the most unsportsman like hits ever.Maybe the refs didn't see it,I'll have to believe they didn't.

When I played, there would have been a fight for sure after that!! No place on a bb court for that!!

Each ref is suppose to have their own zone they are keeping an eye on. If the ball is opposite of their zone then they are suppose to be watching all the off-ball action within their zone for fouls. The official responsible for the side that ON got obliterated on clearly wasn’t doing their job.
