Can we blame the refs now?

[brewcity77]

Powell ejected, then unejected, then didn't get called when he fouled Howard on a three. Worst ref show I've ever seen in my life. Kicking out our two best defenders decided it. Big East wanted Seton Hall in the final.

[Warrior of Law]

Yes. And Howard was fouled on the last shot, too.

Willard runs a goon factory. What a trash game. Bad refs. Would have let a Marquette player get stabbed on the floor with indifference.

Take the blue and gold goggles off, bro. Hanging on the rim for a T? Skipping upcourt is a T?

[wadesworld]

Yes.

[Jockey]

Refs were brutal, but......

Their Star was better than ours - by a mile.

[TallTitan34]

Don't forget the two unwarranted free throws at the end of the first half.

[MUEng92]

If any announcer doesn't call out the BS of Theo being ejected, I will have no respect for them again

[PVMagic]

Their star should have been ejected.

[DUNKS45]

Powell is a punk. Ridiculous refs.

[NickelDimer]

We still could have and should have won if we hit shots and FTs. And Howard, you're not an end of game shooter. Know your damn role and trust your teammates when it matters most

That was a shot at evening it up. But you already removed 2 of our starters and let their thug star stay in. Too late to course correct.

[AlienWarrior]

best to rest up for the real tournament. Hopefully better refs in our next game

[Silent Verbal]

The McKnight one was obviously a make up call.  Officiating was bad on both sides and made the game almost unwatchable.

[muhoops1]

refs were bad.  MU choked.  Their game.  Passed out. Period.

[MU Fan in Connecticut]

Marcus wrist is hurting more then everyone is letting on.

[RJax55]

Take the blue and gold goggles off, bro. Hanging on the rim for a T? Skipping upcourt is a T?

Yep. Brutal calls both ways.

Same problems appearing in crunch time. Markus struggling, no other shot creators, no rebounding, getting beat to every 50-50 ball.

The hanging on the rim and trying to grab the ball is an automatic T. I know it looks weak, but it is an automatic call. Kind of like an automatic flagrant 2 when someone winds up and delivers an elbow to a players chest.

The tech in McKnight was ridiculous, he didn't even look at the refs.

Honestly the worst officiated game I've seen in a long time, not necessarily against MU just terrible on both sides. His is tournament basketball, let the boys play.

True, but their star played when our defenders couldn't. Completely changed the game.

[warriors141]

powell made plays. howard choked again. howard put up big numbers in blowouts but we found out the real big east poy tonight

[GooooMarquette]

I don't usually blame refs. But they were horrific tonight.

[#UnleashSean]

Jim burr would have been the best ref out of this bunch.

[Goose]

Losers blame the refs. Great effort by the guys.

[Cheeks]

Yeah, because their star no longer had our best defensive player shutting him down...he was in the locker room.  Funny how when Anim was playing him, Powell was doing nothing
