I know its not an excuse but

those refs were absolutely horrendous. We got jack crap the entire game.

The decals can suck a nut

[4everwarriors]

Its all the same for both teams.

That's not a good crew, but Louisville had just as many WTF fouls.  Would have rather had the crew that is doing the nightcap.

UL got hosed by the refs in the first half, we got hosed by them in the second. Yes, they sucked, but it was probably about equal suckage. Our problem tonight was not the officiating.

[muwarrior97]

we got all calls in 1st half and then none in 2nd....tricky ricky worked some magic before half

BUT calls were not the issue tonight, got outworked, outplayed

[MattyWarrior]

We were only one shy of breaking the turnover record in the Big East tourny history, how proud Buzz must be

You get what you earn.

So the refs gave up 26 offensive rebounds and turned the ball over 26 times? What the eff are u talking about.

Said it elsewhere, but I hope we use the extra couple days to get used to normal officiating for the NCAAs.  We've benefitted as much as any BE team from the melees that ensue in most games.  Adjust now or be one of several BE teams that will crap out early and hopefully wake up the BE that they need to clean things up.

Thing is, even when UL was getting hosed in the first half they had five fouls, we had 11. But you are right -- refs didn't cost us anything.

Same result as last year, but this time we had 2 first teamers and wanted it bad or not

Al would have been proud... imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
