I hope Kalkbrenner didn't hurt his hand pounding in the floor.

I hope Kalkbrenner didn't hurt his hand pounding in the floor.

It doesn't appear he did ... but it looks like Nembhard hurt his hand or wrist playing basketball.

San Diego State has  to be one of the worst shooting teams I've seen in this tournament.

It's not their forte, that's for sure.

Your eyes do not deceive you.  They're one of the worst outside the tourney, too

[MU82]

Good flagrant call against Kalkbrenner.

[MuggsyB]

Wow....F-1?

[MuggsyB]

I unfortunately feel like SDSU is going to win this game.  I hope I'm dead wrong but Creighton didn't take advantage up 8. 

[Johnny B]

When's it gonna us ya know?

[tower912]

Between SDSU offensive rebounds and offensive officiating, I worry about Creighton.

Good flagrant call against Kalkbrenner.

I agree, but it made me wonder a bit on plays like that. They were both hooking/holding each other.

I like the call, because it did look like Kalkbrenner tried to take him down, but how do you determine in general who hooked/held the other?

[MuggsyB]

Kalky has to finish that.

I have never seen a more incapable offense than San Diego State...and I watched Marquette score 39 points in the 2013 Elite 8.

[tower912]

Their offense is offensive rebounding.

First to 50?

[forgetful]

Officiating letting San Diego State get away with a lot on defense.

[MuggsyB]

This is ugly.  We don't want to see SDSU in the F4. 

[tower912]

All one wants is for the definition of a foul to be the same at both ends.

I was there. I still try to forget.

SDSU getting way better looks these last couple of minutes and it shows in the score. CU needs to run some better offense or time to warm up the bus.

The one I've been surprised with is San Diego State being allowed to put two hands on players in the post and shove them in the back to move them away from the hoop, or arm-bar them in the lower back and push them out.

That has typically always been a foul.

It is really messing with Creighton's bigs in the post.

Agreed.

I determine it the same way the refs did -- by looking at the replay 20 times and seeing it was Kalkbrenner who hooked the SDSU player and threw him to the ground. Neither he nor McDermott argued about it after seeing the replay.

I've tried rooting for the conference. I can't root for CU
