My understanding, which I've not verified, was that the OOB thing wasn't reviewable. I think that, if it was reviewable, the league could've overturned the result.

They're not going to overturn stuff like foul calls or other judgement-calls. But something like that, if it was reviewable, and there was clear objective evidence of a mistake (which there was), and a procedural error was made where it could've been reviewed but wasn't, I would think they could and would overturn it.

I'm too lazy to look up the rules about it.
There is no chance that they would ever overturn a result after the game. 0%. Simple reason being, there would have still been time left when the guy was out of bounds in the OSU game, so who's to say OSU wouldn't have stolen the inbounds and made a shot that way.

You can't play god in replay and assume things like that.

Unfortunately, in hoops There's really no way to review a play unless a whistle is blown. Let's say Funk misses that shot, but Lundy doesn't get stripped and hits his. Where do you draw the line - do you still go back and change it to OOB on Funk? But then what if there was a (hypothetical) foul by RU on the catch on the inbounds, is that reviewable? It never ends.

This is why football and baseball are the only sports where replay really works right, because there's a stop and start to each play.
Exactly.

All the know-it-alls, high-n-mighties, move-oners, etc.
Not that they're wrong just that I don't go down without a fight. If positioned as " don't give up, don't ever give up" they'd be front and center.
"If you don't ask you my never see"

No all kidding aside as fans we can't do squat. If the powers to be don't want to push back further what can we do. I still say make them use it as the tie breaker. Period.

along the same lines--Woolfolk's non steal. I have not gone back and looked at it but I know I screamed like hell at my TV at the time.

Anyone look closer at that? It was a HUGE play at the time IIRC.
You won’t believe this, but upon further review that goes down as a crap call. Instead of being down 5, we go down 10 as they bury 3 FTs on a Mulcahy foul on the subsequent play.

On the foot out of bounds situation there has to be either a coaches challenge or an official review of game winning shots… get it right in cases when a W or L hangs in the balance. We we’re screwed in the osu game, we lost a chance for a final game tying/winning possession against shu, we almost were screwed here with psu (on top of that Lundy may have stepped out before Cam’s final strip … making it 0-2 by the refs on critical calls) 🤬

I think that if Antwone made any mistake on that play that might have resulted in the foul call, it was briefly grabbing the Penn State player's midsection just before cutting in front to steal the pass. Then the Penn State player bends over and stumbles a little as Antwone is going by him, apparently giving the ref the impression that Antwone pulled or pushed him to make the steal....

Was it also against Penn State where a defensive player stepped out of bounds to defend the RU in bounds play without a call in the key endgame situation?

The player who "saved" the ball to him was OOB as well.

Crazy how refs missed both of those.

And just once I want to see Big Ten refs SEE what happens to Cliff without the ball. It is crazy how much he gets molested on both ends of the floor. One time a small guy played behind him and used both his arms to grab one of Cliff's so he couldn't use two hands on an O-rebound opportunity. It was egregious and a ref was looking right at it. Cliff was sandwiched between the ball guy and a big guy.

It happens every game. VS Michigan it was Davison draping on him.. keeping his elbow on his shoulder to better elbow Cliff's head.

As a TE Wolf should know that the back hand around the waist will always get a flag for PI.

Something needs to change with the rules to "assist" officials to make sure end of game situations do not end incorrectly due to these types of missed or inaccurate calls. These are black and white situations there is no gray/judgment involved.
