Double Dribble No-Call in Creighton Game

[im4wsu]

The obvious question is "When is a foul not a foul?"

By definition, a foul is a foul, so it should be called whenever it occurs, and consistently. There were a lot of fouls called that were a lot less contact than the one not called in the final five seconds.

The sCUm play did double dribble and I yelled loudly at the time.

As to fouls WSU maybe didn't deserve, I saw several where the sCUm player was driving with arm/elbow extended into our defender and got the call and continuation in one drastic example. At the other end, we're tripped and called for traveling.

The one thing that stands out to me about the fouling... I think we went from 0 fouls to 7 fouls in two possessions! I could see that at the end of the game when you are trying to foul. But this was with about 5 minutes gone in the 2nd half. I've never seen anything like that. Especially since I remember seeing only one foul that was clearly a foul out of the seven that were called. Normally refs just don't do things like that because it reflects so poorly on them.
