In the Texas A&M @ Missouri game at the 13.30 mark the refs went to monitor to confirm who touched the ball last. I was under the impression they could only go to replay in the final 2 minutes! If they couldn’t determine who a ball was out on prior to that point it went to the possession arrow!
This is copied from the 2018 NCAA Basketball Rule Book. Rule 11 Instant Replay:
e. Violations.
- In the last two minutes of the second period and of any extra period(s),
to determine which team caused the ball to go out of bounds when
there is a deflection involving two or more players. - In the last two minutes of the second period and of any extra period(s),
to determine if a secondary defender was inside or outside the
Restricted Area Arc when an official has stopped the game and has
made either a blocking call or a player control/charging call.
Hope this helps.
Seems like they are doing that more and more.
It’s pretty bad when the refs don’t know or follow the rules.
I also watched a game where a free throw was took off the scoreboard for a lane violation that was on the defense.
