From that replay, I don't think you can tell whether there is foul or not on Pryce's shot. They didn't seem to have any cameras other than the 1/2 court camera which is a long way from the play.

Lot of nits to pick but really can’t get to upset with this one, Sure hope the Hawks get fully healthy in the next couple weeks, Having a healthy Traore would have been nice today.
Would have loved to see a replay on Pryce's shot. Looked like a lot of body
They are never calling a foul there against the home team in the Big Ten. This game was house money. 1-1, 7-2 is kind of what we thought it would be.
There’s a lot of weaknesses on this team that ranked teams will easily exploit (starting next week), but there’s a lot of heart and character. There have been more talented Fran teams that have fallen behind big on the road like that and just let themselves get thrashed.

That's a foul all game. You can't touch a shooters' elbow or body him out of bounds. The refs didn't want to decide the game. That's how it goes.
The second half fight, and the shot, fall just short.
Between struggling on the glass and at the stripe, missing one of the team's best defenders and facing a top team in the Big Ten, Iowa fell by just two points after a late Pryce Sandfort heave.

Despite continued fight late against the Wolverines, Iowa fell short of the comeback victory. THREE TAKEWAYS.
That's straight up suckage.
Wasn't there a point in time - not entirely too long ago - that the Hawks used to average more made FTs than the their opponents even attempted?
Sorry, but I don't care if the entire Michigan squad - bench included - is on Dix like white on rice for that final 1.5 seconds, I still want him getting that last shot instead of either of the Sandfort brothers. 9.75 times out of 10.
How Fran doesn't run staggered screens to get JD open enough to catch and shoot - no matter where on the floor he is at the time - on that last possession is poor coaching. jmho.
You're talking about a conference that has called the only replay review invalid fair catch signal in NCAA/NFL history, and that was against the home team to decide a game.
I think the real answer is that the conference just ****ing hates Iowa.
Watched it 5 times and it's a foul. The defender thinks he's going to shoot it immediately and times his jump wrong, so he panics and keeps drifting into Pryce's body after landing. When the Michigan player walks away he isn't celebrating with any confidence like he made a great play, all you can see on his face is relief that they didn't call it.

Though that questionable goal tending DID decide the game.
I understand refs dont want to call a foul at the end of the game - although they HAVE against us (@ Rutgers in 2022) - but at what point do we have to draw a line?
Any more contact and it would have been a full on tackle. If the refs aren't going to call obvious shooting fouls at the end of the game, then why are they even on the court? The refs should just head back to the locker rooms when its under 10 seconds.
How many of those free throws are in non conf against crap teams, would be curious of the actual big ten only numbers
So no one can mention free throws outside of your other thread? Alrighty then....
Agree, but Sandfort should have sold it more by jumping into the defender.
Thanks for posting, IDK - there is really not much there IMHO...
Christmas party, so I had to watch the game late. Foul trouble made it remarkable that Iowa was in the game at halftime. Freeman continues to be careless in giving up fouls. The bench played very well. Thelwell, Pryce and Mulvey kept us in the game, along with the steady play of Dix, who still doesn't get full credit for all he does. With Freeman out, Josh played a bigger role on the boards and defended one of MI's bigs much of the game. Iowa played a really clean game (5 turnovers to 16 for MI, I think). The difference on the boards is deceptive because of the TOs. Iowa actually had more offensive boards the MI. We just needed to shoot better and get more points near the basket.
In the end, free throw shooting killed Iowa. Freeman, in particular, needs to be much better, since he will get to the line a lot. It is ridiculous that a foul wasn't called on the final play. The foul was very clear, and really not debatable. Pryce should have had 3 free throws to either win the game or send it into OT. Need to get healthy for ISU, and shoot a LOT of FTs, after wind sprints. Is there a coach who can teach Dembele to dunk?

Any thoughts on the goal tending call? I thought the shot was blocked then pinned on glass.
You can't see the clear contact from that angle, because it is behind. There is an angle more from the sideline that shows the MI player clearly bumps Pryce, plus he had nowhere to land.
Oddly enough, the Michigan player looked awfully sheepish like he knew he fouled and was just lucky that the zebras wouldn't call a foul on the last shot. They would have if the situation was reversed.
Yep you can see at least some contact near the waist. There was no reach by the MI player, but that is definitely a foul. If the game is not in Ann Arbor, Pryce is shooting 3.
