Gettys foul That led to the one and one with a little over four minutes left? Thanks to anyone who would be willing to do this.
LOL. I would say for sure in certain games. All you have to do is watch a tape of a Rutgers-St. Johns game.yeah.. no doubt 2 of those refs were NW-friendly. I sometimes wonder if refs know what a conference wants to happen.
I am still hoping that someone who is tech savvy and recorded the game could post it both real time and in the reply.When you are a losing team you do not get the calls, in any sport.
Go to WatchESPN.com, and presuming you have an eligible service provider, go to basketball, then replay, then scroll down until you find the game. Full game replay and you should be able to skip to the end.I am still hoping that someone who is tech savvy and recorded the game could post it both real time and in the reply.
You have to ignore the announcers. They screwed up a bunch of calls. After a NW travel, they said the whistle was due to a RU foul.
Getty clearly wasn't over the back. If that is truly what the ref called, that was a bogus call. I wonder if Getty pushed him in the back earlier. When they showed the replay, there was no foul in the replay. Maybe he just finished his push just prior.
The slap in the face was the 50% foul shooter hitting both. I could only laugh.
No matter who you root for, you believe your team gets screwed by the REFS! Though, two noticeable exceptions- Duke always seems to get the calls in their favor and Rutgers does seem to really get the short end of just about every call!
Incidental contact IMHO.
yeah.. that guy kinda wanted to block out Gettys.. but they both got to the spot the same time.. and that guy kept moving left not because Gettys pushed him, but because the ball was headed there... and Gettys reached over and grabbed it.. not over the back/top at allIncidental contact IMHO.
Yeah, a phantom forearm push to clear the way for the rebound. Another way to refer to it is a foul.
This is revealing as to those who blame refs for things. The initial theme of this thread was that there was no contact. Then someone posts a video showing Gettys moving the other guy out of the way with his forearm and the ref watching precisely that and blowing the whistle. No more question that there was contact and Gettys initiated it-and against the other guy's back. Watch the video--even Gettys knew it. So what to do? Well, move to a new complaint: refs shouldn't call that, there's always pushing. These "the refs screwed us" threads just get embarrassing.
I played bball for a long time. In general, I agree with you in regard to not complaining about bad calls affecting wins/losses. However, I did not see a foul here and it significantly changed the game. Could we have still won? Yes we could have but unfortunately the call was a major factor in turning the game in favor of Northwestern.what is sad is that is thread is still going on. Our fans need to buck and stop whining about missed calls..which so funny is that despite all the people saying that it was not a foul, oops it turns out it was one....guys watching on tv sets think they have a better vantage point than the refs, never fails with RU fans does it
The announcers saw it live also. The NW defender was sliding left and he kept going.. Gettys did not push him anywhere.. the NW guy wanted to slip in front of Gettys.. they arrived the same time.. the NW guy was watching the ball and going left with it.. Gettys was headed straight for the hoop, again, playing the ball. He ended up reaching left.. and grabbing the ball and scoring. That is NO CALL all the way.I'm sorry but I have watched this over 10 times and I still don't see any foul. There is no push in the back. I see so much more contact on almost every rebound on every shot in every game around the country the entire season. This was complete bogus.
I could not agree more – – The Northwestern player was sliding to his left all the way – – my guess is the official lost focus for a moment, then saw the Northwestern player out of position for the rebound and did not realize he had put himself there. Those that insist that Gettys pushed him out of position should review Newton's laws of inertia and then give the replay a second look.The announcers saw it live also.

And while some people like to whine about people disagreeing with calls.. hall of fame coaches do it all the time. So stop this nonsense that every call is a good call and that teams don't get the short end of the stick. I get it that HC Pike doesn't get too alarmed over this stuff.. he's the new guy and if he upsets the refs it could be years and years before he gets any respect from them.
But you guys on message boards that whine about people disagreeing with refs need to get over yourselves. Your not any better of a fan, not more reasonable, not more knowledgeable than fans who disagree with bogus calls like that.
Not to the point where a foul should be called; not even close.Getty bumped the guy in front of him, I see it
You get bonus points for bringing Newton's laws into the discussion.I could not agree more – – The Northwestern player was sliding to his left all the way – – my guess is the official lost focus for a moment, then saw the Northwestern player out of position for the rebound and did not realize he had put himself there.
