February 26, 201313 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 25, 2013 -> 07:40 PM) Wouldn't be surprised if Illinois is better than a 7 but that's not an awful guess at this point. I can't see a 6 or better at this point, I would think 7 is the best but we'll see. That'd be a win at Iowa, and either OSU or upset win in the BTT. I'd love a 7 to stay off the 8/9 line, though we'd be the team a 1 would absolutely not want to see matched up with them. Most 8/9's haven't knocked off top teams like that already. We could easily get killed if we make it to that game, but a 1 is rooting for any other teams in their region if we're looking at an 8/9 when that time comes around.
February 26, 201313 yr QUOTE (zenryan @ Feb 26, 2013 -> 12:12 AM) I turned it off at 79-72. How did Kansas pull it out? Kansas hit a couple of ridiculous 3s and then the refs decided to screw over Iowa St. by not calling a clear charge against Kansas with about 5 seconds left and then compounding that no call by calling a ridiculously weak call against Iowa St. when the ball was loose. KU steps up and makes both free throws and then Elijah Johnson went nuts in OT. Absolutely shameful officiating. What really annoyed me about the no call is that in almost all circumstances, college refs love calling players for charges even though players slide over too late the vast majority of the time and yet in this case, you have a play where Johnson is legitimately out of control and Iowa St.'s player was in position and they don't call it. College refs are truly atrocious at their jobs.
February 26, 201313 yr Holy s***, the Big 12 just admitted the refs f***ed it up. The #Big12 acknowledges that officiating errors were made at the end of regulation during last night’s Kansas at Iowa State game. (1 of 2) The plays have been reviewed and appropriate measures will be taken by the Coordinator of Men’s Basketball Officials .... .... to adjust the number of future assignments for the two officials involved in conjunction with Conference policies.

The Big 10 did the same thing after the 2000 Illinois-Michigan football game. Thanks for admitting the refs cost our school a game, it changes nothing assholes.

February 26, 201313 yr QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Feb 26, 2013 -> 05:16 PM) If only the replay era had arrived a bit earlier... No doubt. I just watched those two fumbles on YouTube, and they would have been reversed immediately.
February 27, 201313 yr QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Feb 26, 2013 -> 08:17 PM) Minnesota can't hit the broad side of the arena they play in. And suddenly tied.
February 27, 201313 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 26, 2013 -> 07:29 PM) And suddenly tied. It's called rebounding and 2nd chances. Minny has been very aggressive on the boards and on loose balls tonight.
February 27, 201313 yr Minny is just poorly coached. You need to attack Hulls not pass away from him.
February 27, 201313 yr Not so easy to walk through a conference slate is it? It's tough to end up with only a loss or two.
February 27, 201313 yr Illinois only lost a single game in this conference one year, and it's because some bench player arsehole took PEDs or amphetamine salts or something
February 27, 201313 yr QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Feb 26, 2013 -> 08:40 PM) Ryan Evans just shot a jump shot free throw. lol Ha might as well try something new at this point.
February 27, 201313 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 26, 2013 -> 10:06 PM) Say hello to your #1 Gonzaga Bulldogs There's just something icky feeling about that. A completely different icky feeling than when Duke is #1.

February 27, 201313 yr QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 26, 2013 -> 10:42 PM) It feels icky because Gonzaga just isn't all that good... They're pretty damn good. Resume wise they don't deserve to be number 1 but they're good enough to win it all this year.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but it's so hard to judge teams like that. Play almost nobody, and when they have, they've lost. Edited February 27, 201313 yr by IlliniKrush
