Yes, this is why Pitino didn't challenge the ball off the Iowa St foot last night. Personally, I think you should keep your challenge as long as you are right. Why penalize a team because the refs suck.That seems like an extremely slippery slope for the game in general. So if a refs miss an obvious out of bounds call in the final minute of a big game, there’s nothing you can do if you’re out of your challenge? That’s terrible.
