If we didn't have bad luck, we wouldn't have any luck at all.

Gibson is a huge liability.
The game is too fast for him.

ISU will become a better defense team once ISU has a true 6-11 shot blocker like a Kelvin Cato!!!

[rhillary]

Ejim no call
Ejim foul
Clyburn over the back
No FT for Babb
Lack of foul against McGee.

Any more in last minute?

Yes on all but the bolded. I really think that McGee was actually out of bounds before any foul.

Another funny thing: How does ISU have 11 fouls in the 2nd half to Okie States' 5 (before the last one at the 3 second mark)? There was a lot of random missed calls there in the last 2 or 3 minutes. Dreadful.

That game was played the same on both ends, yet ISU had twice as many fouls called as OSU.

If ISU had as much talent as OSU we would be sitting atop the Big 12, yet OSU has the same record we do.

Poor end of the game management. Fred, while a great coach and leader, needs to work on managing the end of games. Hoping in the offseason he critiques himself and makes changes to his approach. We got to remember Fred is learning to coach just as much as this team is learning to play basketball. Future looks great.

I disagree. He's had those before, but unless you slip more to the ref than Ford did, I'm not sure how you manage that debacle.

We lost two good leads...mostly on our guys. And I try not to ***** about officiating too much. But we got super hosed tonight. I will not be surprised to hear that John Walters is in jail for assaulting the officiating crew tomorrow morning. They wrecked that game. How do you have a job as an official with that many **** poor calls in one game?

Kill Baylor. By 40. Goodnight all.

Where is the big 12 referee complaint website????

[shawn_200m]

Yes, the refs were bad, but we had the ball up 4 with 1:30 left, and we go turnover, foul, turnover, foul. Can't win like that, regardless of the refs.

[kilroy]

Why was Clyburns over the back a shooting foul.

because the refs already had us pinned for 10 fouls.

[SplitIdentity]

Honestly, I was kind of hoping Walters would yell, "I will cut you in your sleep"

Did I read that it was Higgins? He's the guy who reffed the Iowa vs. UNI game last year in Cedar Falls. For all I care, that guy deserves to have his pee hole plugged, and die by internal bladder explosion.

[EddieISU]

A game that should of been a win. Need to re-group and learn from our mistakes. This is a long season and many opportunities ahead to turn around these last minute losses. Go State!

[CycloneErik]

I think OSU scored on 12 stright postions in the 2nd half. Got to play better D.

Can't play D on free throws.

[GMackey32]

I'm still fuming on the "foul" on Ejim when he made the clean block on Forte. How is Ejim called for a foul with Forte falls to the ground and throws up a miracle shot, Ejim blocks it clean, and then lands on Forte laying on the ground? That one pisses me off.

During the fisting at the end the ladies lost a big lead to Kansas and lost in Ot.
