So they reviewed that play during the UCONN timeout as a call from the booth to review. How does that not give UCONN their timeout back? If UCONN didn't call a timeout would they have not reviewed it?

They can review it until the next snap. I don't think they would have reviewed it had we not called the timeout. So the timeout gave the crew the option to review the reception.

The answer to your question is we will never know if the booth officials would have stopped the game to look if UConn didn't.

If teams could avoid the booth reviewing a play by calling a TO then that's what teams would do instead of rushing to the line for a quick snap on a dive play.

There is much truth to this. It doesn't seem like the review should be done as an action of opportunity by a team taking a timeout. If the decision is made to review, the team having called the timeout should get it back.

If you call a timeout, the timeout is wasted. Same rule as in the NFL.

People are confusing the challenge rule. In the NFL, if you challenge a call, you lose a timeout if the challenge goes against you.

College does not have challenges.

That's not the rule. There is more than enough to complain about right now without wishing that rule was different.

I think complaining about Bob's ineptitude and wishing a rule were different are not alike.

Don't you have a conference going on right now?

I'm more concerned with the clock not stopping on OOB plays twice.

I'm more concerned with the clock not stopping on OOB plays twice.

It stopped and then continued, just like it should have after they marked the ball with more than two minutes left. College rules don't give a clock stop after an out of bounds before two minutes aside from marking the ball.
