January 7, 201313 yr I have two good friends who are as well. I sometimes think they wear blinders. It's admirable how they stand for each other even in an obvious case. I give you all credit for that.
January 7, 201313 yr I have two good friends who are as well. I sometimes think they wear blinders. It's admirable how they stand for each other even in an obvious case. I give you all credit for that. Wrong assumption. Until I see the replay angle they saw I don't know what the right call was. I've read that the angle that most saw (me included) that caused the "it was obviously good" reaction was an angle that the clock was .1 off since it was an insert by the TV broadcast. If true, then how can we definitively say it was good? The other angle I saw made it very difficult to determine if it still on the finger or not. My gut says I would have still said good but it was far from conclusive. Plus, I didn't stand up for these guys in this thread. I've already said they screwed up on other plays in both regulation and OT.
January 7, 201313 yr I thought the TV crew mentioned we we're seeing the same thing as the Refs. I could be wrong...again
January 7, 201313 yr Clyde, there's a picture of the shot that shows the ball clearly out of his hand with both the clock insert and the above basket clock showing .01 seconds. It was clearly a blown call, and the fact that the NCAA and PAC 12 are standing by the officials is a gross injustice to Colorado.

January 7, 201313 yr It's out there. Can't link it from work, just google "CU buzzer beater at Arizona" and it'll pop up.
January 7, 201313 yr It's out there. Can't link it from work, just google "CU buzzer beater at Arizona" and it'll pop up. Found this. The .gif makes it very difficult to tell. CU's buzzer-beater vs. Arizona: should it have counted?
January 7, 201313 yr The second picture in that link, the side angle, shows it CLEARLY was good. I think that's the one that is supposedly 0.1 off due to TV.
January 7, 201313 yr Again, do the refs go to the monitor without a call in-place? Or is it ruled one way or another then evaluated and reviewed?
January 7, 201313 yr I think that's the one that is supposedly 0.1 off due to TV. You can see the clock above the basket still says .01 on it....
January 7, 201313 yr Again, do the refs go to the monitor without a call in-place? Or is it ruled one way or another then evaluated and reviewed? I didn't see any official say it beat the clock. I think they go to the clock to make the decision. It's not like the NFL where they make a call and THEN go to the clock.
January 7, 201313 yr You can see the clock above the basket still says .01 on it.... I see .1 (not .01 or someone would have bionic eyes) but I cannot tell if it's off his fingers.
