MSU-Wiscy Refs/Game

Submitted by Matte Kudasai on

Is it really that tough to be moderately fair and competent?

Refs completely taking Wiscy out of this game.

Double bonus for MSU and Wiscy not even in the bonus.

Happ & Davison both in foul trouble - sound familiar?

I can’t watch this game, but all the tourney games I have watched seemed to have quick whistles on pretty light fouls. Normally I see the refs letting more go in the tourney

Unfortunate, since happ went out MSU went on 16-8 run in the last 8 minutes of the half. I forsee MSu coming out on fire with like a 20-4 run to start the 2nd half. Wisconsin had their shot int he first half but the refs f'ed them over.

Davidson was out of bounds when he just stole the rebound.  He tapped the ball away while he was out of bounds and grabbed it BEFORE his feet made contact on the court.  Play should have been whistle dead and the ball awarded to Sparty.

 

This is just bad officiating which is frustrating because I am a believer that in the end it favor the underdog.....

Need some Badger magic.  Like the times Wisconsin banked in three pointers or made half court shots to beat us in the past.  I want Sparty to experience some of that.

Happ has taken him to school.....

 

School bell has rung on Jackson.....

 

Now how about Sparty in general....

 

MAKE A DAMN FT WISCONSIN!

 

EDIT: That is 3 missed FT, last two the front end of 1 & 1.....

For the most part, this has been a tough tournament to watch and not only because of the officiating, but some ugly stretches of play in general. 

That said, the scenario described by the OP is eerily familiar. Hoping it doesn't happen today.

Should have driven for a quick two....

 

Now its all or nothing....

 

C'mon Davidson, show some swagger!

 

EDIT:

Thats why ot was not a good idea.  Sparty played it right, over playing the 3.....

 

Oh Well, Beat the Huskers and we will take care of them ourselves.....

Lol that is the worst end of half posession you could have imagined. Just terrible from Wisconsin. The big ten is terrible basketball this year, just ugly ugly stuff and pretty much nobody in the league who can create their own shot

2-6 on FTs included mulitple front end of one-and-ones.  that game was there for the taking.  wisky probably wins if happ doesn't get that one ticky tack call in the first half when sparty went on a bit of a run to end the half.
