Holding your arms straight up while an opponent bull drives for a layup just doesn't work. It does nothing to stop them, and the refs will still call you for a foul if there is any contact.

H

not to mention the offensive player with his hand extended with the clearing motion

I still don’t get how BYU gets all these Eastern European guys, no shot they’re mormons

 

[Clonehomer]

I thought they couldn't put it in?

I think they can put it in, just not pump. Weird technicalities in Provo.

I'm no fan of BYU but if Iowa State got called for a flagrant on that play you'd be irate

I wouldn’t because I knew the rule. I’d have already been irate years ago when it was instituted.

The same rule application against TTU against Houston was a worse call IMO. Toppin wasn’t even looking at the Houston player in that situation IIRC.

This is gonna go to OT.

BYU can look like a really efficient, athletic team all game and then forget how to dribble real quick.

 

[Kinch]

He traveled before he called timeout. BYU was fouled on that shot. BYU is getting hosed.

 

[CYedUp]

That was about the same contact on the other side of the court

 

[CY88CE11]

Hall just stood there while that loose ball was within reach. A faster reaction at the very least forces a held ball.

 

[danvillecyclone]

What a terrible possession for BYU

 

[BigJCy]

They might survive but quite the gag job by BYU

 

[cyphoon]

Crap possession for BYU. Why are teams incapable of running a normal offense when there are less than 30 seconds left in a half?

Jim McMahon was far from a Mormon as well.

 

[cyfanbr]

Man, you got figure out how to get that ball to Sanders. Hall should not be the one taking that shot.

 

[alarson]

Should've been a foul on Wisconsin there

 

[helechopper]

If one of our players went nut hunting, I'd be pissed they did that when they didn;t need to. C'mon, that wa just obvious.

But what if that player was a giant squirrel? ️

This last couple minutes was like the first 8 against ISU in ames

 

[LindenCy]

They don't call a foul on that drive though?

They don't need to be mormon, just have a bank account with direct deposit capabilities.
