Hmm makes you wonder. What if an away team was in this situation and had someone purposely throw something on the floor so they could get extra free throws or the ball back lol
Only thing that was never confirmed before the tech...Who threw the object. It’s assumed it was the home team. This could now be an issue of visiting fans trying to get a “technical” on home teams if games are close - in my opinion. BTW - the end of game foul was a good call by the ref. Great positioning and coverage.
Had an imbecile ref do that to us, said he heard a curse word from behind our bench at a 150 team tournament where ANYONE could be watching even if they weren't a fan of that team. Thought to myself the same thing I can go sit behind the visitor team and swear loudly. I used to ref football, had the referee overturn one of my calls "an interception" by a team winning by a big score, said he wanted to give the losing team another chance. After the game I chased him to his truck like a coward he jumped in and took off before i could put my hands on him.
@@billwalters4338 As justified as you may have been, sheriff’s deputies would not have agreed with you. Better to send the game tape to the assignor and end the ref’s career.
If the fan didn't throw something on the court the game would have gone to overtime due to Miss St missing the other 2 free throws. Don't throw things onto the court people, it could cost your team the game..
He missed the final free throw shot on purpose. If you take away the tech foul shot, he would not have tried to miss the second shot on purpose after missing the first.
I agree with the foul call definetly a block. the techincal ehhhhhhhhh how do you know who throw it. you're assuming it was the home team. Also it really didn;t affect the play at all.
If it was a technical foul, why were the lanes filled for second shot? Also, why was he not awarded the second of his two shot foul? Is college different in that area than high school? (Just wondering)
Pretty much all technical fouls at the NCAA level are enforced at the "point of interruption." That means that you shoot the free throws for the technical foul and then you go back to the place you were at the time of the technical foul. And that is both Class A and Class B technical fouls in almost every case. The only time we clear the lane in the NCAA is a Dead Ball Contact Technical where you give the ball to the team that was contacted. Otherwise, this is like every other technical foul at the NCAA level.
Could have been opposing team fan, but 1) came from home team section....those folks would have been pointing culprit out. (Their silence says volumes. 2) doubt appoint team would have “planted” someone thinking this situation would arise, and 3) it has been my experience that college kids would be bright enough to think of it! LOL! 😂.......looks like the only call that could be made!
I agree. I think it was an overreaction by the refs. The commentator said that the tech foul was called to send a message to the fans to stop throwing things onto the court. The refs could have sent the the message by making an announcement that if it happened again, it would be a tech foul. If it happens a second time, then call the tech foul. The first shot was missed before the object landed on the court.
Shooting foul: 100% correct. A fan throwing something onto the floor, I honestly don’t even know. I want to have more of an argument about what the refs did and did not do right, but I don’t even know where to begin with that.
The shooting foul yes, the fan throwing object no because it was after the shot, didn’t hit anyone and didn’t affect the missed shot. No harm no foul. The fan should’ve been found, and banned from attending games again.
there is by rule the phrase of having direct knowledge on something I hope that official and the crew had direct knowledge as to which team that fan was for.. to properly penalize!
Refs had direct knowledge of a fan throwing an object onto the court. Which team the fan may have been rooting for is irrelevant. The technical for fan interference is assessed on the home team.
Tough gig. . .the rule goes against the house? Hardly a visitor fan in that situation would do that! I don't like both benches trying to heat up a tense situation!
Another situation were referee think fans are there to see them the foul was tixtic and technical was for something thar was throw after the ball left the player hands come on that should have been a warning
I think it's pretty funny that throwing a stuffed animal got a technical foul, but it's not the best one I've ever seen. That honor goes to a school band playing three blind mice.
This is such a stupid foul! Like there is zero chance you are 100% sure which fan that is! There are fans for both teams at games this big! Like you legit cannot have a rule that impacts the actual game when you have no clue who to assess it to
First call was right, but I feel like the second call was wrong. I can understand voiding the initial shot even though the item hit the floor after the shot was attempted, but it feels like the game was decided not by the players. I will say that the video lacks context if a warning was already issued, but I assume not since it would likely have been included then.
Under the NCAA-M rule set it is pretty much an automatic call in that situation to call the T. So the officials had no choice but to call the T despite the time remaining on the clock
@@SgvSth disagree. Rules like these prevent fans from tossing stuff onto the floor and getting penalized for it. Without these rules these actions would happen more often.
@@Minecraftmaster44 Knowing these rules however for fans if your team is down and or its tied he missed his first free throw what would it stop a die hard fan from throwing something on the floor to give his team another chance....In that fact not much one can do unless point out the person who did it. Shouldn't be a T call on the home team.
I missed something here: The shooter hits the free throw despite the object coming on the court; a “T” is called, then that free throw is shot, THEN the other free throw for the original foul is shot? I thought that you first shoot the free throws for the foul, THEN you shoot any technical free throws?
There were as there always are numerous technical fouls that weren't called. Rule book is clear. Any attempt to "influence the officials decision" is a technical foul.
This is so stupid, I’m no Georgia fan but they cannot control if a fan throws something on the court technicals and flagrants should only be given to a team if they did something that they can control
@@johnguedel7119 That was my point in my reply to @gelarjor - In all likelihood, you do not...so given that, who gets a tech and why? Not safe to assume it was a jilted fan. Probably was...but not a certainty. Impossible to say whether he would have made that second free throw had the tech not happened...game easily could have gone to OT. Still either team's game.
Just because Georgia is home does not mean there are no Miss fans there. This is a stupid rule. I would go to every away game and in that situation I would throw my Barney doll on the court and het my guy and extra free throw. Then at the end of the season, I would confess and get them to change the rule or my friend will do it next year.
I guess I would sort of understand the frustration if the foul was a close-ish call but that was a very blatant foul.. He hadn't even released the ball yet and he was run into by the defender, you can't sweep someone's legs like that and not have it be a foul. It was a stupid decision by Georgia to do that, just feels like inexperience.
