At the time, I thought the very same thing. Is a jump ball now a millisecond?

“He jumped for the ball, jump ball” - refs

One of THE worst calls I’ve EVER seen in over 55 yrs of watching basketball. That ref should be investigated because there’s no way to explain blowing the whistle and calling that.

How about the traveling call on Wilson when he got a rebound and fell to the floor?

That…as I understand the rules, was a good call. I don’t understand why it wasn’t called a travel (or a carry?) when it Taylor(?) fell and was holding himself up by the ball.

It was the right call.

This was also the right call. Pesik explained it in another thread. If you have the ball in your hands and fall, it’s travel (like Wilson). If the ball is not in your hands and you fall (like Taylor), it’s not a travel.
It is a good call by the rules. The hand on the chest before he travelled should have been called, however.

Terrible
It’s outrageous.
A jump ball in that situation is called because two players (on different teams, obviously) have simultaneous possession of the ball. I don’t think the Aggie rebounder ever had possession of the ball because Ramon’s hand was in there. If anything, Ramon and Mylik both had possession for a split-second.
OT should never have happened. But it did give us Sharp’s clutch 3, Ramon’s rebound and put-back, Mylik’s cutting layup, and Elvin sealing the game at the line What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, or something.

Jump ball call almost made me burn my neighbor’s house down.
How about how at the end of the game Taylor went up for a 3, lost control, ran down the ball and took another shot.
Clown show.

Maybe one of the refs had contact with Ohtoni’s interpreter.

The last shot/re-shot thing was even more egregiously bad than the jump ball BS.

Which official called the jump ball? I’m sure his wife would be disappointed if he was that quick all of the time . . . . .

It’s not a travel to fall with the ball in your hands….
If you try and get back up it’s a travel….or
If you lift your feet off the ground and then let them touch again that’s a travel.

This is what I found in the NCAA rule book:
Art. 7. It is traveling when a player falls to the playing court while holding the ball without maintaining a pivot foot
