[Huskyforlife]

Except for the complete takedown of Faris's left arm. Oh, and the body-on-body contact, which, last time I checked, was a fould.

Football season is over a long time ago. LOL! Spring scrimmage is here soon!

She did not take down her left arm. And regular body on body is not a foul, otherwise every post up would be a foul

Explain how its a foul

That wasn't a post up, that was a drive. That wasn't body on body, that was contact instigated by the defender violating the law of verticality. I thought you were kidding.

No, I don't want to waste my time. However, you should try and explain how it was not a foul to the announcers, the ESPN half time crew, and the other multitudes who saw it differently.

I truly hope you never referee a game. No clue.

ummm body on body contact with a swat at the shooter's arm is a foul.. Were you watching with both eyes closed?

Cute that Dee Kantner has taken on a UConn handle and is posting on the Boneyard. That can be the only explanation for this post.

We aren't buying it, Dee. Neither did Geno, or the game announcers or the in-studio announcers.

 

[Icebear]

Explain how its a foul

Because she completely displaced Kelly from her line and knocked her out of bounds. Basic rule.

You are absolutely correct. It wasn't a foul.

It was a mugging.

honestly I would if I could. It was hilarious how bad they thought the call was.

It was a block. I was using the post up as an example for what body on body means and why's its not a foul

It's clear that you either don't know the rules or weren't even watching the play.

Why would I make a thread if I did not see the play?

 

[Fiftyish]

Why would I make a thread if I did not see the play?

Because the men's side has nothing to hold your interest?

LMAO

Body on body contact, as well as lots of other contact in the game, is not a foul because no advantage is created. Contact that creates an advantage is callable as a foul. Doesn't mean refs will call every one of them - sometimes they set the bar pretty high.

Having said that, anyone who construes that play as anything other than a foul on the MD player needs to have their head examined. It was without question the worst non-call I can remember seeing. And yes I have ref'd (at the high school level not college, but still).

 

[Vowelguy]

Explain how its a foul

Defender clearly whacked Faris' arm.
Replay shows the contact without doubt.

 

[VAMike23]

P.S. that play is called as a foul at every level of the game, men's and women's, without exception. It's the closest thing to a no-brainer foul call as you will see in the game. Go find 10 refs, have them watch the replay, and see if any one of them expresses even the slightest doubt that that was a foul.
