quote:you're right, but the current rule is it's inteference if ANY part of the ball is still in the cylinder.
Not only had it already come off the rim, but also most of the ball was already out of the cylinder. Less than a quarter of the ball was still considered in, and it always on its way out.
I think the rule should be changed to be like the international rule, where interference is allowed once the ball has touched the rim, but under the current rule, it was interference on Bigby Williams.

If you really think the backboard wasn't shaking you can't be helped.

If even ahalf an inch of the ball is over the rim that is considered in the cylinder.
I’d really love for the NCAA and the NBA to adopt international rules where you can grab if over the rim. It would eliminate shite like this totally.

Anyone watching saw Ky go over the back in desperation with ten or less seconds left only to see the ref eat his whistle. We all saw Waters and Smart get hammered and no call.
It's childish. I have a friend who refs basketball, and he rose to the small college level. It's an immense amount of work, and it takes years to rise above high school games.
Once I understood how long and hard referees work to rise to the level of SEC officials, I knew the concept of "cheating refs" is nonsensical.

the goal vibrates, you are wrong.
Look at the replay again, the entire goal vibrates from Kentcucky touching it.
Honestly?
To test your integrity, flip the teams. How would you react if it was Kentucky shooting that last shot and Naz hit the backboard?
What if the refs awarded 2 points to UK on that kind of play?
You'd go BALLISTIC!!! And rightfully so, because no game should be decided on such a technicality.

So last page people who said the goal was shaking were dead wrong. Now you're argument is it's too ticky tacky to call.
Stick with one bad argument please.

This whole deal should be an illustration that not only LSU fans complain about calls like this bird would like you to believe

Kentucky fans on SEC Rant are on to melt day 5.
You'd never know they just beat the #1 team from their incessant crying over the LSU loss.
What a pathetic and entitled fanbase

I’d go ballistic because an LSU player was an idiot and put his hand through the hoop, slapped that backboard, and shook the goal.

Regardless of wanting defensive goaltending or denfensive interference or not, the backboard was unequivocally swaying back and forth after the ball went in. That part is not up for debate. The video clearly shows it.

Oh you don't have to convince me. Like you, I can see things that are 100% clear.

Well, shite. Sorry, I misread what you were saying. I thought you were saying it wasn't moving instead of that it was someone else saying it. My fault.

Did the board shake? Maybe so, but I don't want the refs to decide a game (even if it's in our favor) on such a technicality. Now if a defender hangs on the rim and makes the board violently shake, then that's another issue. But a slap on the backboard? No, I don't want to win like that,and no ref is going to ever make that call.
As for Bigby Williams, it was clearly in the cylinder. I can be an LSU fan and still admit that. Again, I LOVE the win. We played very well on the road and deserve the W.
But I'm not a blind homer.
And by the way, I hate that rule and hope it gets changed to the internatonal rule. But that doesn't mean I'm blind to the fact that it was basket interference on us.

Vitale said that it was a good tip.

I think you are missing the point. The LSU tip probably wasn’t legal by strict application of the rule, but it was close enough that they typically don’t call it.
The UK defensive basket interference was not legal by strict application of the rule but they typically don’t call it.
But if you are going to strictly apply the rule and use replay, sure go to the replay and call everything. LSU still scores because the interference happened before the tip.
But how things are typically called, it’s a good no call all the way around.
