If anyone defend the refs tonight, piss off

I know exactly who will be in to defend this.

 

[zaqhhh]

The foul disparity is something else. Which is sad cause this game would be a barn burner either way. Refs shouldn’t muddy the result by screwing it up

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Never seen anything like this in all my years of watching hoops. This officiating is a disgrace to officiating.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Officiating is real bad.

 

[teeball]

WOW ... just WOW ... Boswell jumped right into Mashack and we get the foul ... SHEET on these refs.

 

[brubaker]

I never complain, but refs are complete BS this half

 

[Franklin_Vol09]

I’ve seen better referees at a middle school game. This is horrible.

 

[RAVOL]

Dude pushed off.

Yes he did and another no call on them. 4 fouls called yea right

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Damn it Igor

What was he supposed to do?? He got freaking shoved

 

[Zues1]

F these guys.
Let's steal it and get the hell out of there

 

[HendoCinco]

Wtf

 

[Larkin]

Don’t understand what the Illinois coach is mad about. His team only has four fouls in a highly physical half

 

[Cartervol]

How Mashack supposed to defend that? lol

My question also. Guy gives him the elbow to the face and Mashack's face commits the foul..

 

[BreatheUT]

These are clear bad calls or just ignoring Illinois fouls.

 

[Dergibvol]

Lol big ten refs. Push in the back, moving the pivot foot. Offensive foul but called for a block.

 

[charleyhorse]

Anyone who gripes about complaining about the refs I do not want to hear it. I typically don’t but there freshman stud just ran his shoulder through the defender and plowed him and now calls the fix is in.

There freahman stud is from Lithuania. International rules. No blood no foul. His hands are orange from pushing Tn players in the back all night

 

[Rebel VOL]

Never complained about the refs, but dam!

 

[LieutenantNeyland]

Never seen anything like this in all my years of watching hoops. This officiating is a disgrace to officiating.

You don’t remember the Arizona game a few a years back?

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Mashack literally got elbowed in the face and nothing was called.

 

[ttocswob]

The refs are COMMITTED to seeing Illinois win this one.

Somebody's in danger of losing their bonus.

 

[johnboyhunter]

I’ve never seen foul calls to this level ever in a game.

 

[patrick]

4 fouls to like 15

 

[VolsLFC]

If anyone defend the refs tonight, piss off

I’ve never understood defending refs. They have proven to be embarrassing in all sports.

 

[volmoon]

3 fouls by IL on Mashack in the last three possessions. 2 offensive. 1 defensive

 

[87&91ALUM]

"Battling foul trouble to their most important players"...duh
