Big East OOC thread '25/'26

CBM didn't get fouled at all. And his FTs broke the tie. Shaheen will learn not to use a challenge in the first half.

Refs knew Seton Hall was out of challenges when they made that call.

A dead ball foul should be intentional.

lol at Seton Hall missing the FT they tried to make and making the FT they tried to miss

I used to hold off accusing refs and players of fixing games, but now that we know it happens a lot…that game was fixed.

This was one of the bigger hose jobs I've seen in a while.

Seton Hall treated like an NPC in this one. Just a foil for the Big Ten team. What a joke.

Yep, it's where we are with sports now and the benefit always seems to go to the more monied teams.

Hurley would have assaulted a ref in that game.

Seton Hall has been on the wrong end of so many of them over the years.

Bilas is the biggest joke of an announcer there is

Tie game, they call a foul on Seton Hall on a bad baseline jumper by Baker-Mazara with 2 seconds on the shot clock, he wasn't fouled. Down 2 the ball goes off of USC and they give the ball to USC. To top it off they don't give Seton Hall the tie up with 3.4 seconds left, they give Baker-Mazara the timeout.

Bilas and Schulman don't even mention he was tied up.

If they're going to ignore the tie up and treat it as a play on, then they have to call the travel before the TO. That pivot foot was not planted the whole time. Feels like the correct order of calls should have been tie up --> foul --> travel --> timeout

Yep and it wasn't just at the end. Hall got hosed the entire game. They shot their first ft of the second half with a minute left in the game. USC shot 20 more free throws than Seton Hall and Ausar shot more free throws for the game than the entire Seton Hall team.

That game was not on the up and up.

The 1990 Rumeal call may be the worst call in the history of college basketball.

Yep, I've always considered it the worst call ever in sports considering the circumstances. I watched it as a little kid with my dad, we couldn't believe our eyes and my dad was apoplectic. My grandpa went to Seton Hall.

It took away the chance for a little Catholic to throw a banner up. It makes me nauseous even thinking about it. Calling a full on ghost foul, no contact, in that spot, is unbelievable.
