Penn State men’s basketball fell to 0-10 in Big Ten play after Thursday’s 99-90 overtime loss to No. 17 Purdue at the Bryce Jordan Center.

The game was a high-scoring and exciting affair, but you can argue it was ruined by the officials after a late drive to the basket by Lamar Stevens resulted in a Penn State turnover instead of two free throws. Here’s a look at the play, which took place with Penn State leading 85-83 and less than 30 seconds on the clock:

Let's see here, no call and it's not even in question, so not fair to Penn State here the shouldn't be in OT. pic.twitter.com/xyN6HTGzBt

Purdue’s Carsen Edwards scored the game-tying basket on the ensuing possession, and the game went to overtime. The Nittany Lions couldn’t get anything going in the extra period that probably shouldn’t have been played in the first place.

I think we can all agree Stevens probably should’ve been sent to the free throw line on the play. Even Stevens himself agrees:

“I drove the ball right. I got fouled, and it was a no-call,” he said after the game. “You saw it.”

Penn State head coach Pat Chambers took a more diplomatic approach when asked about the call, saying he hadn’t seen it yet and didn’t have an opinion.

“It’s a 40-minute game and mistakes are made all over the place,” Chambers later added.

Nittany Lion fans and neutral observers alike — including ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bilas — were baffled at the lack of a foul call. Naturally, they flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts on the play.

Dang, a bad miss of a clear foul on a shooter at the end of the Purdue-Penn State game. Unfortunate.

Total BS. That no call on Stevens is unfathomable.

I know Mike. Totally true in the big picture. So frustrating. On a micro level, that no call on Stevens is a freaking joke.

So Penn State has obviously got some calls tonight (probably lots) but Eastern fouled Stevens on that drive.

For reference, Penn State took 41 free throws Thursday night, while Purdue had 21. Even so, the last minute of a two-point game probably isn’t the best time for a make-up call.

Stevens got raked on the arm with no call. Refs swallowed whistles last minute.

Can they look on the replay and see that Lamar Stevens got hammered? Of course not. So, Purdue ball

A win which would be Penn State’s:
•first conference win
•second win against a ranked team
•only win in January
•biggest morale boost
as well as:
•a 17 point comeback
was ripped from us because the refs let 4 Purdue players clobber Lamar Stevens on a no-call
