***NCAA Championship Game Thread***

Refs are bad both ways.

I agree. It's like they're trying not to call anything short of murder, and then forget and call touch fouls.

When do they put Burke in to give Albrecht a blow. He needs a break.

Go to the well, till the well runs dry.

 

[MaccloNe]

This game is also why Raftery and Gus Johnson should be working March Madness. It is truly a travesty.

onions!!!!

 

[Gonzo]

Only comparison to Albrecht right now is Robbie Benson in the last game scene from the 70s bball cult classic 'One on One.'

Ref John Higgins is on this crew, what did you expect? See Oklahoma State game

 

[istater7]

The officiating in this game is much better than calling it really ticky-tack

When was the last time we have hosted the defending national champs in the non-conference?

I will research that and report back.

And OkState vs Baylor in the Big 12 tournament? That was a horrible finish. Probably cost Baylor the game, and their chance at an NCAA berth.

I agree. Though they need to call fouls that affect the shot down low, and be consistent with how they are calling perimeter defense and rebounding.

What. The. ****.

You mean...it was THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO THE 2013 NIT CHAMPS!

And cost Iowa a NIT championship

How was that not an offensive foul on Hardway? He pretty much threw the defender off him.

 

[HFCS]

this is turning into a slaughter, Louisville is just grasping for anything on offense

Agree...but it's still terrible. Hancock's "foul" on Albrecht? Kick ball that EVERYONE in the arena saw but wasn't called, then promptly McGary gets fouled like 3 times by Siva and they call him for traveling? exciting game, but still: NCAA refs SUCK! (We know better than most)

Yeah, I've given up on reason.

It happened in the paint. There are no fouls in the paint today. Special rule.

 

[enisthemenace]

Watch out.

 

[mostjohnson]

Higgins and Cahill both suck!!!

 

[enisthemenace]

Here we go! Old fashioned shoot out between Albrecht and Hancock.
