How did nobody make a huge deal out of this?

HRCougar All-American

When the broadcast resumes the announcers made it seem like the finish of the match was just routine. If I was the USA I’d have been livid. They got the card and just dropped it?

The whole thing was asinine.

They probably should have taken the red card

That was suss….

Correct. And the ball was in. So weird.

Not just complained, but challenged the initial challenge and somehow got it

Replay showed the tape move…..

The sand on the tap bounced up off the tape which would only happen if the ball

Not necessarily. The ball hitting the sand first could project it outward and

Watch the replay…..the sand on the tape was a foot away.

7/31/21 8:24pm

I thought of this, but it wouldn't launch the sand on the tape like what

That's not what happened

Usually in that type of situation, if the ref really feels it's not clear, they just replay the point. Makes no sense.

How does that even happen?

According to the officials, Newton and basic physics are both wrong.

Who has the authority to overrule the original call?

Cthack1

7/31/21 7:15pm

I'm not sure, but I think the third challenge goes to the UN

The announcer said something like "there will definitely be a 2-minute report"

m1k3l33

I think he was just making a joke.

When the ump makes a bad call you accept it and move on

HRCougar

7/31/21 7:23pm

Very good points. Plus the video evidence is definitive.

slatecoug

7/31/21 7:44pm

what's the deal with volleyball refs? Remember BYU volleyball a few years ago

SalmonOfCapistrano

Any replays video of the questionable call?

The sand on the tape is definitive proof the tape was contacted by the ball

slatecoug

7/31/21 7:52pm

All I can see is the face in the sand to the right of tape just below the ball

Martin Van Nostrand

7/31/21 7:55pm

clearly out, line didn't move at all

Hill4Heisman

7/31/21 9:02pm

Watch the sand sitting on the tape. It jumps straight up and lands back on tape

slatecoug

7/31/21 9:07pm

The tape moves. Watch the inside edge of the tape just above where the ball

Seems pretty obvious what happened,

Here’s the explanation. Still seems really sketchy.

That is not what the Video showed….can’t just say it didn’t
