He's not too bad.  Hopefully we can make him cry at some point in the future.

To qualify as ticky tack, there would have to had been contact.  There wasn't any.

what an ugly basketball game. half of these whistles leave me perplexed as to what, exactly, the call was. 

 

this is a lesson in not letting lawyers write your rule book.

Gutsy call by Miles to put Watson in

Illinois is grabbing and hacking.  They should have about 50 fouls today.

[colhusker]

Palmer is just out of control today

I agree. they pester with their hands all the time. but heaven forbid we try to go to the hoop and brush a shoe lace. "charge!"

i'm just frustrated at how much impact on the game flow this stuff has. they're forcing us to be a jump shot team. 

[colhusker]

They are like a bad rash, just won't go away

[colhusker]

Another lazy ass foul call by the officials 

[tcp]

huge shot by glynn. let's just win this and get out.

Get all our claw marks off from all the scratching Illinois did today.

More like herpes

Nice little run

[tcp]

cope with the dagger. 

[tcp]

that'll do it. death by roby. nice to see us play with some flow again. 

[brfrad]

Why was that not a charge?  He was outside the circle.

[colhusker]

Key today was Watson coming back with 8 something left and not getting 5th foul so he could run the show.

[tcp]

15 point win against a supremely annoying team. 

 

I'll take it. But man, that was really an unfun game to watch. Zebras stunk.

That's why I am never going to be a fan of West Virginia and Cincinatti.

that was sweet to give a team shout out to Kent. Congrats, Mr Pavelka!

Interesting to see if Minnehaha can play on the road.  OSU's last home game didn't go so well.

Kent: "Blueberries come to town."

[Red Don]

Good Game. Ugly game, but I think Illinois had a lot to do with that with the way they played; And the way it was officiated.

Some say we didn't play well, but don't forget G'town only beat Ill by 8, Gonzaga beat 'em by only 6, and Notre Dame by only 2.
