When my kids get in trouble, I am going to make them watch a replay of this game instead of grounding them.
Taking an elbow to the face from another big strong division 1 athlete will get a lot of guys to the ground.
Continuing the washing machine analogy, if you let your washing machine do that often enough, it tears itself apart and you have to call an expensive repairman to fix it...
It was a subtle and smart move on his part. He leans forward before he jumps, so that when he does jump, he knows he's going to come into where Kunc is. It created an illusion that he jumped straight up. He just did his work earlier in the motion than most guys trying to draw a foul in that situation.
I thought to myself last night when the game was over that if I looked in a mirror that I would be bloody. What a meat grinder of a game that was.
You are 100% correct, TT is a well coached team. But with players out, they were REALLY limited offensively. We didn't do a great job of exploiting TT missing some key players
But in the end, we got a W and that is ALL that counts. On to OU.
Unusual call. But if you watch the shooter, he did not jump straight up. He jumped into the defender. Cylinder and verticality apply to offense and defense
Can't recall the game earlier this year, but an ISU shooter(I believe Brockington) was called for an offensive foul because he stuck his foot out slightly on a baseline 3.
Maybe mentioned elsewhere, if my research is correct, that was ISU’s first regular-season win vs. a ranked Big 12 opponent since Feb. 16, 2019 (#18 KSU). (Had two wins over ranked in B12 tournament).
Relax, As a KU fan no one is questioning that you haven't seen many an opponents face get called for getting in the way of a KU elbow.
Weird game, but the one thing in the box score that surprised me was that George had zero shot attempts.
While I initially felt that we were extremely lucky with that call, Nodolny didn't argue, didn't plead his case or act like "who, me?" In fact as the camera focused on him right after the call, he seemed to be gesturing to himself as if to tell his team, "My bad." I think that he knew that what he said/did was unsportsmanlike. To me that verifies that the call was a correct one.
Yeah...I mean what could it have been? Like some shock and awe obscenity beyond other obscenity?
That was either the worst technical call in the world or Nadolny said something that the ref deemed technical worthy. Although option 2 happens a lot I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if the ref just made a bad call.
You don’t need to say a lot just one word could do the trick if it’s directed at someone. Which is why I was confused because it seemed like he never said anything at one of our players.
