You misinterpreted your underlined part. Once the ball contacts the backboard, even if it's still on its way up, it is then considered to be on its downward flight.
—-Not arguing just continue discussion—

That’s not a misinterpretation. It’s written in policy legalese but…

If the ball hits the glass above the rim it is considered in downward flight.

The caveat of “chance of going in” implies that the ball has to contact glass above the rim to then go downward and have a chance of going in.

All caveats have to be met. What they called would be the same as if a shot was clearly falling 3 foot short and someone jumped up to get the ball at the highest point and they called goal tending claiming it was a shot attempt and still above the rim


Meanwhile, they shoved their whole arm through the cylinder and shook the whole backboard and it wasn’t whistled. One was obvious…the other is a bad interpretation of the rule

9 fouls to their 5.

.. and we're at home.

This makes me just that much more impressed that were 2-1 in SEC and able to even win games with this officiating.
Got to drive it and make them foul. Can’t stand around waiting for an open three.

It does if it means they can call a foul on Kentucky. It’s why the refs skipped middle school to go to ref school!
Still haven't figured out where the foul was on that one. How many FT's has TAM shot this half.
