I'm not even arguing about the call of it being flagrant (which it wasn't - clear flop).

THEY WENT BACK AND CALLED A FOUL RETROACTIVELY. It is the exact same thing as going back and calling a holding play on a previous play. I've watched a lot of sports and I have never seen that happen.

I'm not talking about reviewing a foul to see if its flagrant. That happens all the time. These officials went back and called a foul after a possession by the other team. It was a crooked attempt to give UCONN the game and it almost worked.

Well if you wondering if they can do that in football I can tell you absolutely they can and they did. They did it to us twice AFTER plays had already been ran when we were still a rebuilding team. Oddly, enough now that we're competitive again calls go our way a lot more.

ANC I feel we both agree that they should NOT be able to review that after game time has passed. But it is the rule that they CAN do that at the next stoppage of play. Hopefully the situation will show the rules committee that it needs to be changed.
