No one is blaming the loss on the refs.
But only a fool wouldn't see how key plays when the refs put away a whistle can change the outcome of momentum. Which could easily influence a game from the onset.
I'm old enough to remember when every UND Frozen Four on ESPN was delayed because of bean bag toss championships.
Its happens to every team every channel.
You need a pulling/tugging/impede progress to be a hook. I saw a SCSU player lifting the stick on the UND player. Might have hit his hands. Wouldnt be a hooking penalty.
Edit: Ok. I concede. Lol
