49 free throw attempts

[The Sultan]

My favorite of your vapid posts are the ones that literally say nothing, offer no counterargument, but allow you to stroke yourself into feeling superior.

I have been saying plenty. Others are too.  Sorry you can't comprehend these points.

[The Sultan]

No it's not.  When you add home court in, bad refs become bad in a certain direction more often than not.  There are studies on this.

But the refs weren't bad.

"This is what you get in Big East basketball. Refs let them play. It's a physical game."

After a game where the refs sent a team to the line 49 times.

They only let them play if they are muscular. Or something like that.

I said my favorite "of your vapid posts".  For being a Sultan of Semantics, you're certainly not very good at semantics.

HAHAHAHAHHAHA

ok goodnight.

Marquette is basically 1-3 in Big East play since they aren't beating UCONN (can't guard Hopkins, you definitely can't guard Sanogo/Clingan).

Seton Hall is bad, but they are good enough to beat Marquette and make it hurt. Gotta avoid a loss on Tuesday.  Might make the trip to Milwaukee for that one.

[Dr. Blackheart]

Providence with a 75.4% FTR in a close 2OT game where they played behind in the end of regulation. MU's average is 30% of possessions.  That's more than out of the ordinary, if not incredible.

Go back and watch the game. PC makes contact with their chest; MU reaches for the ball with their arms. The latter causes refs to blow their whistle.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Remember today if and when we miss the tournament. Providence isn't good.

Marquette being 1-3 would have nothing to do with UCONN. Maybe look at the schedule before making dumb posts like this.

[We R Final Four]

Has there ever, in your life, been a game where you admit the refs might have been a problem?

Not a MU game at least.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Yes. But it's very rare.

I can't think of one.

Generally, you are right that refs seldom determine the outcome. But no matter what, this is always your schtick. Even when it's this obvious.

[1318WWells]

I didn't notice any they missed.

First one off the top of my head was Oso's last bucket. Reverse layup from left wing. Hopkins fouled him three separate times along the baseline. No call. Shoulda been an and 1.

More than just physical defense. But Oso absorbed and finished so no call?

Oof. PC had 46% OR too

Providence made one field goal in the second OT.

But Hopkins has muscles and Oso no muscles so, via Big East rules, fouling is allowed on that particular drive.  Sorry it's been like this forever!

Unless you're Theo

[JTJ3]

Unless you're Theo

This was going to be my exact response.  When we had the strongest dude in the Big East the refs were the opposite, calling fouls on Theo just for being bigger than the opponent.

You think they are a lock tournament team?

[Vander Blue Man Group]

I think if we miss the tourney it won't be due to a double OT loss on the road to Providence and anyone that thinks that is a 🤡

[Elonsmusk]

There were 3 that were egregrious off the bat.

The Jop should be And 1 and the Kam out of bounds bump. Were both fouls that were called on us 15 times.

And the Kam "foul" when he went to jump ball Crosswell when we were still up 8 was maybe the worst call of the season. Dont wanna blow the whistle? Fine. But a foul on Kam was lol.

The foul on O-Max 5 seconds into OT was horrible.  He was straight up and down and there was virtually zero contact, other than the offensive player trying to initiate contact.

Theo had no clue how to play defense. It appeared as though acc refs found that to be the case as well.

Definitely a massive anti-MU conspiracy afoot.

I don't think it will be solely because of that, but that will be a reason.

People are assuming to get in Marquette will have to have AT LEAST 19 wins before the BET.  That would mean finishing 11-9 in the league, so 10 more wins. To get there, you have to win games like this against the middle of the pack.  They were up 8 with 5 minutes left. 

They are 0-4 in close games late.  They've looked better than expected, and that is awesome, but this still doesn't feel like a tournament team.

[Shooter McGavin]

They rewarded Providence for out of control head down drives and swallowed the whistle for MU. Pretty clear.

Call it both ways.

Yep. Don't call the fouls on Providence on the forced out of control drives.  If they do they have to call it both ways. Plenty of body on our drivers not called.
