Rutgers was worse.  The officials played a big part in the total change in momentum which resulted in a loss.  Last night, we did it to ourselves.

Yeah two different situations to me, with the Robbery at Rutgers being far worse.

I am one of the few fans who thought the ball was pushed forward in the Rutgers game (its actually very clear to me). So last night hurts more. How in the hell don’t you knock that ball down. Total trash play and we allow that to happen.

And which player do you believe purposely pushed the ball forward?

I would have to watch that replay again, but it is clear his hand pushed it forward in my opinion (the first sequence). Not interested in revisiting a play so many years ago. Again just my opinion.

What matters is who the official called as having pushed it forward purposely.  When you watch the video, it's clearly impossible to have been on purpose.  

That was a robbery.

Last night was a gift (to Houston)

His hand pushed it forward...pretty clear to me. But yes, who really cares now. On to Uconn

It wasn't called on Jenkins.

It was called on McKenzie.  He launched the ball forward when the defender released his right arm. The area near the inside of the elbow was the part of his body that he would use to conduct the illegal forward propulsion?  I have the video on the server.  It's really clear.

Rutgers because we had already defeated much better teams prior to the game with Rutgers. With Houston, well we hadn't beaten anybody yet this season.

This one. I had no expectations for the 2007 season. This season was supposed to be magic and I had to slowly watch us dodge bullets until we finally shot ourselves at the end of the UH game.

4th and 24 is way worse than the illegal propulsion.  You're talking about a win vs a flag before halftime.  As it turns out the Temple loss from last year was a much more damaging loss than RU.
