Nothing was evened out at all.
Bottom line is that the B1G doesn't want us to win. Same reason they took one of our home games away and sent it to the Garden (we did not ask for that game). The calls have been against us all year. When our guys get assaulted in the lane, we don't get the calls, meanwhile opposing players get an and-1 for being breathed on.
Don't believe me, watch the next few games. All of the fouls on the other team are always right before we're about to make an easy basket, and then we get a side out and need to play in the half court.
All of our opponents calls are while their shooting resulting in 3 point plays, or while their in the 1 and 1 on a shot so that they get two shots. It's annoying, but I'm definitely calling conspiracy.
It happens in the second half of every game too, all the sudden, we'll have 6 fouls, the other team will have 1, and the refs will start calling meaningless non-shooting fouls on the other team to even the numbers up. It happened against Nebraska, and luckily our guys gutted it out 5 on 8. That makes the win that much more impressive.
