Sure the refs might have missed a couple calls on CU. Thought Jackson was fouled on his rebound & attempt to dribble up court. There were a few over-the-back calls felt they missed. And at end of game, still not convinced the out-of-bounds call should have been reversed. I thought the CU defender was on baseline when he touched the ball. But it could have been off Chatfield. I'm sure CU fans could point to a few calls that didn't go their way.
But in general, we definitely benefit if the refs don't call a tight game. We are physical and handsy on defense. I have always felt that Larry's teams, Huggins' teams, etc. got away with fouls because their approach raised the bar on what is a foul and got away with a handful of fouls each game. In todays game I would put Iowa State and Houston's defenses in the same realm.
