oh please
bias = prejudice
conspiracy = a plan
COMPLETELY different things
I guess you are one of those people who think the refs stealing an NCAA bid from us was also no big deal. It just happens! we'll get ours someday!
NO WAY WE SHOULD HAVE WON

Maybe someone should write down some actual rules about what conduct constitutes a T and then attempt to enforce them consistently. Currently it just seems like in ~10% of the games some idiot ref decides "today is sportsmanship day"
and the flagrant foul on Palm when he got elbowed in the head
You never call that T to influence the game at that point in the game especially where it was not directed at any Maryland player or team.
Good ref warns player or coach.
Ref, who had a poor game, should never insert self in outcome. Was almost as poor as OSU.

In a strange way , Maryland having fouls to give in the final 40 seconds hurt them with the clock.
Last laugh was on the refs, Maryland had to foul 3 times with 20 second left just to get us into the bonus.
Thanks for the third grade interpretation. If the prejudice manifests, it’s a plan.
That's not true? There are all kinds of studies that show, for example, that refs are somewhat influenced by home crowds and tend to slightly favor the home team. That's a bias. But it's generally not intentional. There is no plan.
Yes...unconscious bias.
It's a thing.
Refs are not cyborgs. They're human. And they are biased. Rutgers has been the butt of all athletic jokes and bottom of the barrell in practically all sports for decades and we're expected to believe that doesn't impact referees?
Give me a break.
Yes, I am. TY. Try as you might to prove the same, you fail. There’s no backtracking. You think refs are biased against Rutgers. LOL. Do you believe the earth is round ? I think they cover that in third grade science so you should at least know that.
sorry Mr. Einstein. I'm not backtracking on anything
B1G refs are biased against Rutgers because we have a history of athletic futility and we get the sh*t end of the stick (far) more often then we get the benefit of the doubt. Go ahead. Pull some calculus out of your mightily intelligent arse now and prove me wrong.
Shelby65 simultaneously believes
(1) Any manifested ref bias must be planned
(2) Home teams get calls
So Shelby65 believes in.. a conspiracy against away teams?
Idiot or troll, you decide.
He just mad about the results for the previous two games for his team.
you really proved your point! How could I have ever questioned your intellectual capacity! you're really winning me over here.
can you explain quantum physics next? Its still a little fuzzy for me
To be honest, I was happy to see that kind of confidence and swagger out of him as we have been lacking all year. But yeah, I’d probably feel different if we hadn’t won.
Posted this on another thread.
Rule 10-5 contains a partial list of illegal unsportsmanlike acts, such as disrespectfully addressing or contacting an official, using profanity, taunting, inciting undesirable crowd reactions, flagrantly contacting an opponent while the ball is dead and fighting or leaving the playing court during a fight.
Tominaga doing the shhh isn't the same as simpson screaming shut the F up at the crowd and right in Young's face, giving the eat em up, then giving the shhhh
Me me me meeeeeeee when you're 2-9. Just play ball or pick one taunt and end it there. It's just unnecessary and dumb

I thought bolded was more along the lines of when Hurley was inciting the crowd to boo the refs and stuff.
Taken too broadly the road team could get T’d up for every made basket lol
I'll give you 11, dude, if you keep posting about this crap. Ref-bitching threads are horrible, even worse after a win.
Posting so many times in a thread complaining about the existence of that thread is horrible.
So if there are a lot of lopsided whistles in a game, fans of the team with the disadvantage are only allowed to complain if it didn't cause you to lose.
We disagree.
So what? I rarely if ever complain about refs,
that goes for football as well.
Upon extremely rare occasion I point out egregious officiating… why? Because it’s a Rutgers fan sports message board!
In fact the last time I said anything about officiating was at Maryland several years ago after calling us for multiple illegal screens.
I played a sport at the highest level along with a few more members of my family, was taught never to complain about refs unless they were egregious, like last night
It's just boring and everyone does it. And upon further review, it's never as lopsided as fans think it may be.
You're whining about people whining. Not once, but over and over again! Talk about boring lmao.
