It does what it’s designed to do. 

Which is exactly why it deserves to be scrutinized and not brushed aside.

That’s never getting called in any conf in any league in that scenario. Never. Honestly the def foul isn’t either…you have to be tougher there.
 

Refs been swallowing their whistle in that situation since there were peach baskets hanging.

Northwestern has beaten us twice by a total of 3 points 

and given up 45 pts of leads, nice if we'd play the full 40

[iubb]

It has been for awhile

So then why the hell do we spend our time and money on this corrupt BS?

No other league has this bad of an officiating problem.

People Big Ten officials are neither there to call games fairly or produce entertaining basketball. They manage outcomes plain and simple

Northwestern wasn’t sleepwalking the second half they were fighting off a more talented team that was actually trying 

Cool, so if a team is more talented then they deserve to calls against them.  BS.

This is a quad 1 loss for us, no harm no foul here!
 

Hell Tennesse had lost 3 of 4 and barely dropped in the NET, BPI and RPI.  In the grand scheme of things, this is not a bad loss or devastating to our seeding.

Hummel: "What'd you see on that last play?" 
Buie: "I saw Trey Galloway and so I knocked him out of the way."

It’s not going to change as long as Painter is in this conference

I mean…by all means continue to whine about it and play the victim.  When the emotion wears off in the morning you’ll know I’m right.

We should also expect the officiating in the big 10 to be competent.

Yeah, tired of the lame excuses when an obvious call is blown because 'well, we didn't play a perfect game so we shouldn't have won'.

Didn’t say that. But a team that doesn’t try doesn’t get to whine about the refs

Who got the 1st T on the bench?  That’s the dumba$$ who cost us this game!  Wouldn’t have been a second T without the 1st.   If that was Ya, he needs a come to god talk.  That crap cost us four points.

Tough game on the road. They fought back. Wish that final lob into space didn’t happen but I won’t lose sleep over it. They just beat Purdue as well. We’re still going dancing.

This might have been discussed and sorry if it has,but if not, this really irritates me when it comes to the technicals and officiating knowing the rules. Not going to blame them for the game because of our first half play, but it stings. But Tell me I’m missing something.
 
 
Their first Class B tech happened in live gameplay where we sat at 5 personal fouls. Then woody touched the ref and got a Class A. So now we have 6 personal fouls. They got two FT for the class A tech. That’s legit. But then should have only gotten 1 for the class B they got 2). And then got two more from 1 and 1 because they moved our fouls from 5 to 7. So should have had 3 FT’s. They got 6.

Nobody is saying that. But chumps blame others rather than looking to improve themselves 

[HoosierAloha]

You control what you can control (or not in our case in the first half)

We rolled over, again, in the first half. We did it in the first matchup with NW and several other road games. Luckily for us we were just more talented than the other teams.

Still, that’s gives them 2 free throws yes. But why didn’t they 2 get more for the Class B (bench tech) and then a 1-1 where they made both. That’s a 3 point swing. I get the sarcasm but damn that doesn’t sit well with me

Bull ******* ****.  Reffing sure as hell isn't about judging 'who tried harder'.  Obvious fouls are obvious fouls.  Incompetence is incompetence.  Maybe the Big Ten product is something you think is quality, but I guess my standards are just higher.
