There has to be video somewhere or else how could it be overturned by the ref?

Good point. Let's get a look at it & settle this. Meredith & Pat Hobbs should have access to it as well as the Big. Question--how does a video pick up the sound of a whistle?
I don't think it is from the whistle I believe it is when she first touches the ball; it is right at 8 seconds so I don't think they should have overturned it
The other stupid rule is the challenge rule in a shootout if you used your challeneges you can't challenge!! very stupid
So this is the fall sport I actually coach now (and have been lucky in the past few years to win state titles). The timing is very, very close on the 8 seconds. Its a tough rule that is has to cross the line before 8 seconds and not just be in the air (honestly a rule that puts officials in a really bad spot).
At the high school level it is 10 seconds and the horn sounds when time expires.
I would like to see their clock paired up with the actual start of the play.
I ran my clock a few times and each time it came out right around 7.8 seconds, but the video has us already in motion. It is super close.

I will take NUTS at his word that the clock starts when the ref blows the whistle and not when the player first touches the ball.
I stopped the video that is linked in this thread at the 8 second mark, and the ball is in the air but NOT across the goal line. If anything, that video probably started a split second after the whistle blew, as the video starts when our player had just touched the ball.
From this, I conclude that the goal was properly disallowed.

Just read the rule and yes it is from the time that the whistle blows to start the play. There should be a clock on the goal like they have in BB. I imagine there is a split second that it take the official to stop the clock once the ball crossed the line.
So, did anyone time the video yet? Stuff I saw said it went over 8 seconds.. not sure how that could be unless they started counting before she began her shot... which could happen.. just don't have the video to time it myself
I shall assume that Rutgers people have internally confirmed this since I have not seen a formal complaint to the Big Ten. Guess it doesn't matter unless the women make a nice comeback here. But you have to know NW securing the championship.. perhaps wrongly.. has to have affected the team.
