They haven't been travels for the past 3 years but suddenly halfway through this season they are. That's why folks are ****** and players are befuddled.

They have been calling a lot more travels across the entire sport this season and especially in the last few months. They are tight but have been the right calls. Selden gets called for them almost as much as Niang.

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.

I think you're right. Traveling calls went way up at the start of conference season and it has been across the nation. Every game I watch now has a few more per game.

WV fouls on almost every ISU in bound.

Thank you totally agree... seems like WV because of their "PHYSICAL" play gets away with a lot of physicality and then when anyone from WV gets bumped its an auto foul.....

Not saying fouls are completely lopsided just hate it when one teams allowed to be physical and the other is not....

Technical foul for jawing is a bs call too....

Im so sick of the ticky tack fouls on McKay its truly getting old - i feel sorry.... Then you got Williams bouncing guys outta the lane and he ends the game with 2 fouls....

I'm not sure I recall the last play they drove the lane and we didn't get a bogus foul called on us. I think I'm legitimately going insane.

I'm fine with them not calling physical play on WV. The PROBLEM is them calling tick tacky stuff on ISU. ISU players mentally can't have any clue what to do to appease these refs.

******* terrible. 18 fouls to 14 fouls. **** THAT ****! There should never be anyone with more total fouls than WV. Their starters have 3, 3, 1, 1, and 0 fouls. Ours are all in foul trouble. Refs in this game can eat **** and die.

Devin Williams shoves a guy in the back on 80% of their offensive rebounds and hasn't been called for it once. The amount of pushing and shoving West Virginia gets away with on rebounds is embarrassing.
