College basketball officiating putting on another vomitous display in the Penn State-Minnesota game.
Holy crap!!

I was just watching this and wow. Some of these things are horrible. And when you go back to replay, you HAVE to get it right. That's just horrible.
This is ridiculous bad.....missing an obvious call with Minnesota grabbing an arm on the shot AND then missed a call on a replay in slow motion. Can’t make this stuff up.

if minny is getting the calls, it really makes me wonder about fran calling them out.
how many games are b10 bubble teams gonna get an insane amount of help?
SHADY......
Tired of hearing how tough it is to officiate the game today. Call the game by the rules from the very beginning, and let the players know it will not be a wrestling match and we will see better games.
This is ridiculous. I don't like to call officials out (I am one), but man... they have to get this right.
I agree with you, but it is harder these days. 3 officials isn't enough and it should be 4. It's difficult to catch things as fast as they are moving. I am sure that some teams teach where officials will stand so they can get the best defensive angles. They need to change it up so they can get more eyes...
**edit: Type on 3 officials. Corrected.

It's a mutual mugging. Hands and bodies all over the offensive players and no calls. Minnesota and its soft defense had TWO second half fouls with about three minutes left. 
The no-call on the hook of the PSU shooter was one of the worst missed calls of the year . . . and THAT's sayin' somethin.

raise the tix prices and use 5 refs. 2 stay around their basket all game and never go across half court.
nothing I hate more than these "hacking" fouls where the ref literally has know idea what happened because he's 15 ft behind the play!
#15 IL got screwed big time last night by one and ended up fouling out like a minute later
I'm laughing that the announcers are even saying they won't call replay because how bad these guys have been.
Penn State got away with a bad one in the first half...I think Stevens on Murphy at the basket....BUT if I am Penn St I am in full meltdown....they had two huge calls down the stretch in regulation go against them. JUST GET ONE OF THOSE RIGHT and PSU most likely wins that game....I'm not a PSU fan by any stretch, but if that happened to the Hawks my head would explode.
My kid looked at me and said, “dad, I thought three steps was traveling?”
Get him a whistle. He’s already better than half of the “professionals”.
As I said in another thread the pushing & shoving has gotten so bad by every player on the court the refs can't call
it all. Basketball is now a full contact sport I guess
