#15 tOSU at #10 Wiscy, Sat 1/23 4 ET on CBS

One last thing from watching this game again.

The refs stopped the game for 5 and a half minutes on the play with 44 seconds left, when they never should have blown the whistle at all, and cost tOSU a layup by doing so. 330 seconds of our lives we won’t get back.

I'll say it again - get rid of it. It's not like football, where it is used for the entire game for the same rules. In basketball we have several things (tenths of a second, who touched it last, etc.) that only get reviewed in the final minutes. The rest of the game we live with the call on the court.

Five minute reviews to look at a ball going out of bounds 38 times - only to decide you can't tell so the call stands - aren't worth it. They suck the life out of games, award time outs to teams who sometimes have none left, not to mention taking away an easy scoring chance like yesterday.

Get rid of it. I'd rather live with the occasional bad call than sit through that nonsense game after game.

Agreed. We have had it in place long enough and it sucks. Just because we have the technological ability doesn’t mean it’s worth it.

Time to scrap that shit.
