Interesting. I thought it hitting a player who is out of bounds was the equivalent of it hitting the ground out of bounds and it was basically a question of who last touched it while it was still a live ball.

Feels like if we give up the lead again that might be it. Foul trouble and talent levels being what they are.
Nope. The ball is live until it hits the guy who is out of bounds, and he's the person who made it be out of bounds.
fikipowski moves his feet and holds the guy on defense. How the hell does he get away with it!?!?
It looked like one of those "I'm pissed off so I'm just going to hack someone" fouls.
I agree on the first part. Just don't see how you can make it out of bounds if you're already out of bounds. Not saying you're wrong; it's just odd.
More terrible officiating. This is unreal.
It's similar to the football rule. When the ball touches someone who is out of bounds that's when the ball is out of bounds.
Yeah, I 100% agree on that part. It's a dead ball immediately. But that's not what I'm arguing. I'm saying that throwing at a player who is out of bounds is the same as throwing it at the white line. And the Duke player was the one who threw it out of bounds (it just so happens that out of bounds was extended in this case by virtue of a player protruding over the line).
On the last time it happened the Duke player's foot came down out of bounds before he threw the ball off of Lowe. That one should have been Pitt's ball.
Yeah I was looking at my phone and only caught the tail end of it. Would have validated my previous argument if they were referring to Lowe's foot being down! Haha (not saying I was right; I just don't agree with the rule).
Great win. Vader has to be sick Hinson bailed out his hero Capel after he shit on him all week. Really bad look for Vader
checking this OB call in the corner scares hell outta me! more tobacco road home cooking!
The bad thing about this is that even if we do get the ball back we still have to inbound it again.
Are they trying to figure out how they can give the ball to duke
They are desperate to find anything, anything at all that would allow them to give Duke the ball.
