Used your number. Used 10.8 for number of Big 12 teams since that's our average over the decade.
Went to bed when it went to overtime thinking that Houston was cooked with the foul trouble and going into OT after blowing a good lead in that fashion. Woke up pleasantly surprised and impressed that they found a way to pull it out.
Houston got the kind of reffing that we've been dreading going into the tournament. Honestly, that's the first game that I saw getting called that way.
I only saw highlights at halftime of some other game, but it looked like the first half was very physical, they showed few plays with bodies being knocked down / pushed with no call. Maybe refs tried to clean it up second half
2 Big12 Teams in S16 disappointing and going to have media questioning the league ranking. Kansas being down star did not help, needed Baylor to win
Just as an example, the last one on Shead was mostly imaginary.

That Houston game reminded me of everyone talking at the end of the season about how hard, physical defense like ISU and Houston play can end up getting whistled for a ton of fouls in the Tournament once you run into a reffing crew not used to the Big 12 style.
That‘s some of what we had here. 75 free throws?

Uconn been looking dominate, hopefully they have a bad shooting day, otherwise very tough out. I watched first half of their game, they played very physical on defense too, lot of holding/contact, plus have Clingan size in middle.
It is, but only 4 were expected by seeding, and KU was clearly a wreck, so that was expected. Really just lost one more than expected in Baylor (though no one else performed above expectation). The media would find a reason to question unless the Big 12 just blew everyone's doors off, and their opinion is worth about as a much as a fart on a windy day.
It seems like whenever you have officials like that in games people will say something like the conference set this up or some part of a bigger conspiracy. I have always thought it only takes one booster say from Texas AM to get ahold of a ref and make him an offer we can't refuse. For the times that we are in this really is not too crazy. Compare to what players are receiving from NIL how much money would it take for a ref to make a few more calls in favor of one team? How does the NCAA insure that the refs are clean and not taking payments?
A little disappointing at least one of BYU, Tech, TCU couldn't manage to win at least one game.
that is the game I fear will be called in boston, when Illinois/UConn gets in trouble. Sorry, but I believe in East Coast Bias Theory.
I didn't think it's that.
Referees are stuck managing a TV product where the players have all realized that all the fouls cannot be called. This directly leads to the egregious play and all the whining about the calls they do make that we now see.
Yeah, I had BYU taking out Illinois. BYU was just weird this year. Really tough as the underdog, really average against teams that they should beat.
