Let’s put the shoe on the other foot. Recall our 4th down stop vs OSU this fall in football? That was a gift from God. We’ve been on the receiving ends of these as well.

This is a little something to help cheer us all up after a tough loss.

From my favorite psycho's comments on kusports.com, Bryce Landon:

From his positive list:
"5) Iowa State lost. As the world's biggest ISU hater, I'd rather crush them by 30 each time we play, but seeing them so dejected when they miss a buzzer-beating game winner gives me a deep sense of schadenfreude. Whenever Iowa State loses, America wins!"

From his negative list:
"3) It's so galling to see Tristan Enaruna, or as I like to call him, "Traitor Tristan", in the cardinal and gold of Iowa State."

My wife and I have been laughing at this clown for years.

810 sports did some research once and came up with the conclusion every home team gets better calls from the officials and the bigger the crowd the more likely that is to happen (bonus points when playing in Lawrence). That being said, the blown goaltend was the worse miss I've seen in a long time. Those three were not good.
To be fair, basketball doesn't have conference dedicated officials. This isn't a Big 12 thing this is an officials lose their minds in that building thing. There are several amazing home court environments but there isn't another school in the country that benefits for head scratching officiating gaggle f*cks like KU. Not Duke, not Kentucky, not Mich St and so on.
On to something here.

The phantom 3 still takes the cake.

After watching the video clip several times, I still can't believe what I saw. I swear it's some Allen Fieldhouse magic dust.

Did he get called for any of them last night?
Did Iowa State score any 3 pointers that counted during pre game warm ups?

Go step in front of a bus.
A little harsh don't you think? We should reserve this sentiment for OuT IMO. KU fans are merely annoying. Random gets a pass on the fatalistic measures. Moreso if he were to start listening to reason. Edit: then again if he is tuco, well.

I love that there's multiple Kansas fans showing up, pretending to be ISU fans and telling everyone how much better they are than everyone else because officiating is either so hard or "was bad both ways!"

Maybe you can convince me on subjective calls but that goaltend wasn't ******* subjective.
It's probably one Kansas fan. I know that randomfam/tuco has at least one other alias.
It is an interesting phenomenon. I can't explain it.

It might be like a lone flea telling a dog that his services are actually necessary, and good for the skin.

Anybody have any archival posts from this tuco? And jfc No, not everybody.

Just go to any random KU-ISU BB thread older than 2015 he'll be in every one of them explaining how every call favors ISU and poor KBOO is always being treated unfairly, but yet the always manage to pull thru the strife.

HaHa, Ok I'll take your word. Interesting that there are people like that out there that feel they need validation on a rivals site. Even more interesting if a person changed their user name to continue doing it.

FWIW, on tuco, I couldn't find anything pre-2015. I'm not sure I want to do any further searching.

It's because he was banned a long time ago. If you Google cyclone fanatic and "twocoach", you can still find some gems, but the site won't let you look through his previous name's posts.

It's because losing fans have access to create Twitter accounts and losers like to blame refs instead of their team.

You can't pull the ball carrier down field and since they reviewed it, it was just a confirmed/correct call, not some gift.

The name was actually Twocoach or something like that. Tuco is just an abbreviation.

So, if we would have played better or done what we were supposed to do, we might have a better chance of winning? I agree.

So, if THE OFFICIALS would have OFFICIATED better or done what THEY were supposed to do, we might have a better chance of winning? Agree?
Sure, but we can’t control the officials. We can control how we play

So we got screwed but by gosh how many free throws, missed shots under the hoop and bad turnovers did we have? We literally threw the ball out of bounds 5 times that game with nobody close. Even the elbow foul would have not happen if we didn’t just lose the ball without much pressure. Make one more bunny, one less turnover and you win. Terrible calls but stop putting your self in that position. Happened in football too.

Really missed opportunity and now Texas is a must win imo
We made all the mistakes you mentioned, but still should have won by 1 if the refs hadn't blown that goal tending call.

No.. #51 pulled the running back forward on that OSU spot which is a penalty..no gift. Same game X got flagged on that brutal taunting call.
