[bac2therac]

Caleb..saw that coming.awful

 

[RUsojo]

Montez write your chapter tonight

he already wrote a few chapters earlier in the season buddy

 

[Plum Street]

Caleb..saw that coming.awful

He’s awful on offense

 

[bac2therac]

he already wrote a few chapters earlier in the season buddy

Um one game

 

[jordkap]

Caleb..saw that coming.awful

That was a block though

 

[RUpop]

every whistle will go against us..

 

[Mr. Gerbz]

Ref knew he was calling charge

 

[greenknight]

Grrrrrr

 

[Mbash93]

Antiqua probably paid the refs like he does every recruit he signs, calls have been heavily one sided.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Bad call there. Was never close to set

 

[koleszar]

He turned his body and didn't maintain position. Should have been an easy charge there. Close.

Then how was that one a charge. The guy was constantly moving and stepped in the way of McConnell while back peddling? I give up I don't know what a charge is anymore according to B1G refs.

 

[RU848789]

That was not a charge - defender was clearly not set.

 

[RUPartisan]

Why is Cockburn allowed to mug everyone who gets a rebound?

 

[ClassOf02]

When was the last call that could go either way called in our favor?

 

[zebnatto]

Blocking call if it were other way.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

Well. its 5 on 8.. refs are really helping Illinois with calls and especially non-calls

 

[FrankZ]

Ref knew he was calling charge

Truth

 

[shields]

Bad call on Caleb.

 

[RUinOhio]

horrible call. these refs suck

 

[bac2therac]

That was a block though

No..caleb was out of control

 

[RU848789]

Um one game

Please, that's a ridiculous statement.

 

[FrankZ]

Blocking call if it were other way.

More truth

 

[greenknight]

Play in control EVERY possession will be important

 

[BillyC80]

Tez with an amazing shot, Myles with a great block, ref calls a bogus charge on Caleb when Frazier was not set. The score should be closer.

 

[BOCA93]

My god these refs are whistle happy tonight.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Then how was that one a charge. The guy was constantly moving and stepped in the way of McConnell while back peddling?

Ask the ref, not me. I didn't make the call.

 

[tfio]

Never played basketball and don’t pretend to know all the rules here...but I’m pretty sure you have to be set and not moving on defense to draw a charge call right? Cause if so than wtf is that call

 

[RUJMM78]

Against a top tier opponent the absence of players that can create and make shots off the dribble is readily apparent.

 

[ScarletDave]

If you thought the refs were calling this game evenly you haven’t been following the big ten. It’s big business. I’m sure Pike gameplaned for that, like no drives the way we just did.

 

[jordkap]

My god these refs are whistle happy tonight.

Kinda weird because the first two games today were called very loose

 

[FrankZ]

Down 7-4 fouls.

 

[Plum Street]

No..caleb was out of control

Caleb always looks out of control

 

[RUpop]

I hate to play the 'blame the ref' game .. but the bias is so pathetic and obvious

 

[Scarlet Bri]

No..caleb was out of control

I disagree he dribble hesitated and euro stepped

 

[ScarletDave]

Geo or Kofi: whoever wakes up first, will run his team away with the game

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Honestly id throw Douc out there to steal a few mins when he puts Geo and Paul back in.

 

[hbbsm713]

2nd on Johnson. We’re screwed

 

[RUsojo]

Kofi is a beast

 

[koleszar]

Down 7-4 fouls.

Scratch that, 30 secs later 8-4.

 

[bac2therac]

Awful foul by Myles
