Michigan State finally got tied up with Duke so the officials called three straight fouls on one possession.  Jeez

I don’t know why I still surprised to see refs wearing ear pieces with Duke logos on them

Hate it so much. Would have loved to see some sideline reporter step into RMK’s huddle and say, “Coach, I know you’re trying to stem a 14-2 run, but can I have a second?”

Probably would have left the court on a stretcher.

[DChoosier]

That was an offensive foul against Duke. The dude literally swung at the defender.

[RoadRage]

Izzo even dialed back the whining and crying during the game....he knew he wasn't going to get any calls in this game!

[Uspshoosier]

Wisky fans not use to not getting every call.   

[Uspshoosier]

B1G every March 

[kreigh8]

Something oddly satisfying watching Davison cry and moan about not getting every call

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich]

It makes a great Sunday to see the Big Ten 0-3 in their tourney games. 

[AKHoosier]

Not a great look for the conference if both the B1G co-champions don't even make it to the Sweet 16.

This game may as well be at the Kahl center with these calls.  And why aren't they reviewing every single out of bounds call like our games?

I can’t decide…is the Big Ten overrated again or is this what was expected? I say kind of both. Definitely overrated but I also expected a solid first round and then a big flame out.

Definitely expected.  Until they change they way they call games during the year this will be the norm for the conference each year   In all my money brackets I had all but 1 team out after the first round

K State hiring Jerome Tang, Scott Drew’s Associate HC, per Borzello. Interesting choice by Tang. That’s not the easiest gig and I imagine he might have been in play for a better one. But he’s been in the Big 12 for a hundred years, so he knows what he’s getting in to.

Honestly curious if a Michigan and/or Purdue run would make the powers at be resist that change. I have a feeling it would. Oddly enough the physical and tough conference play seems to be engrained in the marketing

I honestly don’t ever see them changing.  You would think getting embarrassed each March would cause a change but nothing 

[kreigh8]

Davison got a way with a knee nudge there. Didn't change much but definitely noticed that leg and knee getting underneath that Iowa State player before the turnaround

[Uspshoosier]

ACC got crapped on all year and rightly so because they stunk but they are showing up in the tournament

They've been close to a championship, which I'm sure is reason enough to cite that they are knocking on the door, but watching the other top teams play it's a noticeably different brand of basketball being played

[AKHoosier]

Purdue is probably gonna end up carrying the conference in the NCAAT this year.

Gross.
