Someone help me, were we robbed 2 pts

Post by Jeff90 » Sat Dec 08, 2018 2:10 pm

Last nights Providence game. I'm sure I'm not the only one who taped the game. At the 11:55 mark Cobb scores to make the score 17 - 13 Friars. (I counted every point by Umass up until that point). Then at the 11:46 mark the Friars Watson is fouled. He misses the first shot, Then as he is taking the second shot which he hits out score suddenly jumps from 13 to 11??. The score now shows Friars 18 Umass 11. I thought perhaps it was just a TV mistake that would be corrected but as far as I can tell re-watching the game they never gave us the 2 pts back??? Someone check out what Im saying if you taped the game. Could they really have gotten away with that or did I miss them giving us back the points later? Of course we won but wow if I'm right. Please help check it out. Thanks ahead of time

Thanks was driving me crazy. TV must have added the 2 points later and I didn't notice.

I've had a few points disappear on me during my life and I still don't know where they went. I may be down 10 points by now, but nobody's keeping track, thank God.

They fixed it one minute later as Holloway was dunking it.
This is the most enjoyable losing season ever!

Outstanding!

Admin note...

Changed one of the words in the topic title. It's not so bad that I'm going to change it in all the replies, but it is something that's offensive to some.
