Wow... Refs ignore the "arc" under the bucket and all a charge which is impossible in the college game due to that arc.

Gotta love Refs just ignoring what is a ****ing rule.

Not enough energy to muster a comeback even if the shots did start to fall.

Refs have ****ed Baylor I'd say in the 60% range and just complete laziness by some of the bears being the other 40%.

Do we consider it A quality loss? That's how it would be framed for the blue bloods.

The irony is that KU is shooting only 18% from 3 -- they're 3 of 16.

big win for the stripes. My god they earned it.

Both of you are obviously not actually watching the game then.

When they impact a game this ****ing much with no calls all over the place, calling fouls that aren't fouls, missing goaltends, and allowing a team who is as aggressive as KU has been to have so few fouls you just show how little you actually know.

Bears have been sluggish so yes, they are part of the issue, but the Refs are way passed 50% of how this game went.
historian
How long do you want to ignore this user?
They gave up on that one defensively.
