The Sooners did not make a big deal about it after the game, but the Utes might have to worry about point guard Luka Drca getting disciplined for his cheap trip of Oklahoma's Blake Griffin during the Sooners' 70-52 victory on Saturday.

The players were running up the floor early in the second half when Drca clearly stretched out his leg to trip Griffin from behind, leading to an intentional foul after Oklahoma's Willie Warren confronted Drca in defense of Griffin. Fans at the Noble Center instantly turned on Drca, booing him every time he touched the ball for the rest of the game, and the incident received specific attention on ESPN.

"I just made a mistake," Drca said. "I tripped a guy. I didn't mean to, but like, I just wanted to win the game."

That's basically what Drca said when he threw an elbow into the chest of TCU's Brent Hackett last season -- "it's a bad time," he said at the time, "but I messed up" -- yet he still earned a one-game suspension from the Mountain West Conference despite not having been called for a foul.

Obviously, he was called for a foul this time, and might not escape the glare of the spotlight. The league is reviewing the play, a spokeswoman said.

If Drca is suspended again, he probably would miss only the game at Weber State next weekend, though he would hope to learn about it sooner than last time. Coach Jim Boylen was miffed that the league waited several days before announcing Drca's suspension last year, giving the Utes less time than they believed they should have had to prepare for their next game without Drca.
