I'm not crying at all and the reason ISU fouls less than most teams is by strategy and how they defend.

You still never gave your opinion on the Oklahoma game

He's just going to dance around it.

Yes, I'm sure there was a nationwide meeting of officials in the offseason, and by universal agreement they decided to make sure this happened. Good grief. Do you suppose the fact that ISU gets called for fewer fouls MIGHT be a result of their playing style?
I agree. Frankly, fouling the least in the country is a bad thing. If you aren't fouling at all them you're probably not guarding close enough to get called for any fouls.

Has anyone else noted that tuco's avatar is a different angle of the same pic shown earlier in the thread (the Hield face-rape pic)?

Again, there is literally not one team in the nation that gets called for LESS fouls than Iowa State. Crying about the refs at this point is kinda embarrassing. Be original and don't blame losses on the refs like every other team after they lose a game. EVERY team gets some home cooking sometimes, even always the victim ISU.

So when ISU gets called for 2x as many fouls as the team they are playing, something doesnt add up...

Like others have said the fact that we don't foul kind of proves our point. Go back to last week too. I'm pretty sure that WV commits the most fouls in the country and we commit the least amount. Why in the hell did we have more fouls at halftime. It wasn't because we all the sudden began playing more physical and fouling more than WV.

You don't usually foul. Expecting everything to always go the same in every game is silly. It's like saying "we would have won if we would have shot our average from three." It's not the refs being inconsistent; it's the players being inconsistent.

Typical entitled ku fan. Why do they all sound alike?

Nothing is ever ku's fault.
Everyone should be like them.
We should all stand in awe of mighty ku.
We lesser mortals are so quaint and rustic.

Eh, and? Are players required to stay inside the lines at all times? We've already discussed this silliness ad nauseum, a half a picture means nothing. Was Mason holding the ball in his hand when he touched the lines? No, so who cares?

Ok... Sure the ball is in the air.

Doesn't change the fact that you are still not allowed to grab a players jersey and impede his progress in bounds or out of bounds after he makes a pass. Look at the picture. He literally is grabbing Heild's jersey and pinning him against the table with his left knee.

That is a foul no matter where you are on the court.

Tuco's delusional comments must generate too many posts for him to be banned, unfortunately.

How you got from "college basketball players are inconsistent" to THAT is beyond me.

He touched Hield's jersey and Hield's hand touched the table. Kinda different than "grabbing a jersey and pinning him against the table". And at no point did Mason's left knee even come in contact with Hield, let alone be used to pin him against the table. Maybe you shouldn't use still photos to figure out what happened. DVR tonight's ISU game and count how many times they touch the other team with their hands. It will be in the thousands.

Watching UNI/WSU and LSU/A&M games, I've seem probably 10-12 plays in the 20 minutes of game time I've watched that would have been called travels against us the past several games.

It is weird how many more traveling calls have been called on ISU the past 6 games or so. Not even saying they're wrong calls, just ones that didn't used to be called, and I don't think people (i.e. Georges) are traveling any more than they used to.

It's like a memo went out or something to watch for it.

There have been a few bogus ones. They anticipate it and get it wrong.

The part that bothers me the most is the fact that other teams post players take 3 or 4 shuffle step in the lane and don't get called. Those should be easy calls rather than I think this guys mov may have been a travel.
