It's inexcusable to miss that call. Everyone in the world saw it except apparently for 3 guys whose job it is to notice obvious s**** like that.
For the heck of it I checked past games vs ISU. Looks like they mostly were in the low 20s at home with an occasional game in the teens. On the road they had mid- to upper-20s fouls.
UT got called for 7 more fouls than ISU in Hilton. ISU is more physical than Texas, that includes pushing the edge of fouling. That exact game in Austin is going to get officiated pretty differently.
It has nothing to do with defense. Even the best defenses don't hold teams scoreless. We are not a good offensive team. Everyone knew that. Take away 2 of our best shooters and yeah, we are going to struggle on offense at times.
ThxI watched it like 4 times. It wasn’t much behind the basket, but it was. Here are a couple of stills that show what I’m referring to with the referee and the OSU player standing behind the backboard.
Watching live I thought it came down in front of the basket and there’s just no way if that was case.
I’m not sure they’re really behind it, more parallel but at least possible.
Get into the offense that when it’s at its best is moving the ball … possessions without passes is not it
The offense is totally different without Tamin at the point. Jaren needs to focus on initiating the offense. It shouldn’t look like a different team.
That's a tough situation off a missed free throw. The bigger issue was the King 3 attempt at the end. I know he hit one against Texas, but that's not the shot to take in that situation.
I was pretty astounded we didn’t even get near half court. Gabe has shown he’s a great player for tgat but you can’t expect a 3/4 court shot to have a chance.
Yes, home teams USUALLY get an edge.
But I wouldn't bet the farm at Hilton we have a 16-4 edge on TCU or 15-5 on Okie State at any time during those games. I can see 16-11............15-10. It makes a difference.
And I use those as examples because they both play hands on type of defense.
Nope, I've seen it over and over and over again. We have a team that can beat anybody at home but turns around 3 days later and cant beat a team with the 161st ranked offense in front of about 2,000 fans. It's been the exact same story for 40 years with the exception of the Eustachy teams.
It's why when we think we might actually contend some years we still end up finishing 2 or 3 games behind the conference champion.
Lipsey also never got traction with fouls and Holmes's floater couldn't hit.
Dude just jump off the edge and get it over with
So if it's happened for 40 years what exactly are you complaining about?
Bball is a game of runs. If we hold OSU to 40 pts that's as much a failure of OSU as ctedit yo ISU
Now that blood pressure returned to normal.... we dropped one on the road.
**** happens. Let's keep winning at home and get some more road wins where we can

OSU stepping up and hitting threes after not doing so in prior games was not cool man.
I very much knew it would happen. Felt like we over extended a bit on pressure trying to force things and gave up some extra open looks. May be lack of Grill as well
Hey, be happy with that 7 seed if you want. I actually have tickets to Des Moines this year so thought it would be cool to see my favorite team play there. That's not happening with losses like this.
Well how much eligibility do you have left go suit up and make it rain
