    We were up by 5 with 45 seconds left and we didn't finish. That's not on the refs. We knew going into the game that the calls wouldn't favor us. We, the team and the crowd, didn't finish well.

    Except Iowa State did finish. With 8 seconds left they got a defensive stop, with a 2 point lead. That is the finish.

    How is it not? You are saying we should expect to have to make plays to compensate for incompetence from the refs, yet we lost fair and square? Make up your mind.

    I beg to differ. Refs gave them possessions they shouldn't have had. Exhibit 1 Babb "foul". Exhibit 2 Niang no-call. Exhibit 3. "foul" on Niang with guy on top of him. How many free shots did they get out of that and us not get any? You don't have a case for tonights game. Stolen.

    Edit..and this is just the last 30 some seconds.

    Yes, I realize it's a message board and I shouldn't let others actions dictate my emotions, but the very ugly side of our fan base showed tonight.
    was there not a good reason though? we got screwed out of a win against the #6 team in the nation and put an end to our home winning streak. anything posted on here tonight is completely validated

    Johnson hit some big shots. Did the refs screw us? Maybe, but there is nothing we can do about it. You have to play the game the way it is called. We had some chances to take the refs out of it and we didn't.

    News flash...it doesn't have to be one or the other. KU players can hit great shots while the game is also being thrown in the final minute.

    "fair and square"???? Was it fair when KU got points during a dead ball a few years back? That's not being the "bigger" person, it's being naive and ignorant.

    Us missing one free throw and Johnson hitting absolutely nuts threes along with and couple very questionable calls is not blowing the game. No one is talking about Babb getting it. If you look at the replay the the KU player thought they called it on him. Withey not getting his 5th foul on a play that was clearly his 5th. It was a smorgasborge of blown calls in the final minute

    Those shots aren't enough to beat us if the refs don't put them at the line 2 times on bogus calls...Nevermind the foul not called on the charge which should have given us free throws.

    That's a 4 point swing at the least...and that's assuming we miss all four free throws we should have had. how many free throws did we miss tonight? One. So **** you buddy you are wrong....******* ******** and ******* me off. Focker out.

    ********. We made plenty of plays too. More than KU, in a fairly officiated game.

    A fairly officiated game- we win a close, hard fought game.

    A fairly officiated game where Elijah johnson doesnt have an amazing game? We win handily.

    A game where Elijah Johnson goes off and the refs fellate Bill Self for 40 minutes? We lose close.

    I've always had a let them play attitude, especially towards the end of the game. It's fine if you don't agree with me. I'm just not a fan of the ticky-tacky fouls that are called now days. I've always been more a fan of the bad boy Pistons than any current team. Niang had his feet set, but that's not how the refs called it. All I know is that complaining will not do any good. If it makes you feel better to do so, go for it.

    Yelling at officials after that ******** game, yup; posting phone numbers of officials, threatening violence on the Big 12 office, stating a hope for violence, death, and horrible injuries and illnesses on players and officials, not cool. Throwing things at or chasing after players, coaches and officials, again across the line.
