While the result is official by NCAA rules, SUU is hoping to speak to Cal about any number of possible reactions or solutions to the apparent screw-up, including jointly appealing to the NCAA to address the error by a possible replay of the game from the point of the error, when the Thunderbirds were leading 42-34 or 43-34, if you believe what's on the video.

According to the SUU Athletic Director, she tried to reach Knowlton, but only an underling returned her call and she is insisting that Knowlton talk to her directly. I guess he is big timing her.

That mistake by our scorer is horrible and inexcusable--especially since SUU complained right when it happened but was blown off by the officials. All they had to do was look at the video, but they wouldn't do it.

It's not clear from the article.

Was the scoreboard just wrong? Or was the score actually wrong?

If it's just the scoreboard being wrong, that happens all the time. I guess it depends how long it took to correct though

Not just the scoreboard. They did not credit a made free throw at all, and since the game was tied at the end of regulation it went into overtime. Now it is fair to say that if they gave the point correctly, the incident happened earlier enough in the game that we can't predict what would have eventually happened.

SUU has no right to a do over. I guess it would happen only if Knowlton agreed to it--and my guess is...no way. Talk about home cooking!

They have a moral right but no right under NCAA rules. The score has been recorded. It is done. Sucks for them. We don't want a do over. It took Kelly's best game as a Bear for us to score one less point than them in regulation in a game at Haas. We need all the Ws we can get.

If those are the rules, what stops a home team from pulling something like this in a game that actually really mattered? Seems suspect

The refs needed to check. They were asked to. They didn't. Refs have a lot of power (see numerous Big Games when Stanford was shooting for the BCS).

I took cal -3 and the only reason I won was due to double ot. Lol. Would be classic to have that ticket stripped away. The one time I actually get lucky and win with the bears.

There should be consequences -- and Cal should agree to call the game "no contest."

The error should not be up to Cal or Knowlton to acknowledge, it should be up to the league office. Southern Utah to file a protest and the league to rule.
