No, Mizzou had clear path to basket, Morris fouled.  Clear as day intentional foul.

Around 4:35

And you know I always think that Bob isn't the 'homer' type and calls it like it is and to get that type of reaction from him on that call speaks volume on how bad that 'intentional' was.

It was definitely a foul, but I don't think it should have been an intentional.  Morris was clearly going after the loose ball.

     Break-away Rule (Intentional Foul) - a player shall not intentionally prevent nor foul an opponent that has a clear path to the basket. A break-away is defined as a clear path to the basket where no defender/opponent is between the offensive player and the basket, nor has the chance to catch up to the offensive player.

I listened to quite a bit of the KU game on the radio today.  Was it just me, or were Piper and Bob both bitching about the officiating non-stop. 

If I were a KU homer, I would LOVE that Bob and Piper broadcast.  However, it's probably THE most homered broadcast in America...they say "We" all the time when referring to the game, etc.  I rough ridin' love it if I am a KU fan listening, but it's amazingly annoying to everyone else.

I would have been pissed at the call had it been called on KSU, but I think I agree with it. It was obviously a foul, but it if had been called it would have taken away MU's guaranteed two points from the layup. So the refs weren't left with any choice but to call the intentional. That being said, Davis and even more so Piper are total embarassments to radio.

Morris was clearly going after the loose ball. 
If by "loose ball" you mean "hand", then I totally agree.

This is the same as the technical called on JHR earlier this year for making a play for the ball while his hand was on the rim.  By the letter of the law it was the right call (which is exactly why KU fans should be embarrassed by Bob Davis), but the foul had virtually no impact, so it's hard to justify giving them 2 FTs and the ball back.

I have a really hard time getting all bent out of shape either way on calls like that.  :blank:

The best is listening to Bob call football games in which KU has no chance.  Like after the NDSU game, they ran back the sound byte from the play of KU's first and only points (some boring field goal from, like, the first quarter or something).  A very uninspired call, boring, etc.  After the clip finishes, Bob says very defeatedly, "...............aaaaand, I guess we'll make that our Sonic drive-in play of the game............"

It's awfully conspiratorial of me to have this attitude, but, I can't bring myself to believe that national media, especially CBS, doesn't play to KU's real national value (in their minds). What is that value ? Their eastern audiences love to see KU get beat - that simple. They don't like us blowing out teams for that reason, so, it's not hard to convince me they bias the whistles.

I like this one:
"Officiating made this basketball game unwatchable. I'm all for the big east style of officiating where there's more contact and less pussification, it makes the game more fluid and less of a stand around and wait contest between commercial breaks. It's almost like the big twelve is making efforts to kill the sport of basketball."

What this fan means is that when the thug element of the squawks commits assaults on opposing players, they shouldn't be called as fouls, but fouls against squawks should be called aggressively.

Not gonna do the whole conference but here is the fouls/game for KU and Mizzou. (Hopefully I'm reading it right.)

KU (Home) 17.1 (Away) 18.8 (Opponents) 18.9
Mizzou (Home) 19.1. (Away) 21.9.  (Opponents) 19.2

So, Mizzou gets 0.1 less foul called on them at home than their opponents, while KU gets 1.8 less fouls called.  Is that right?

You forced my hand, I had to find out for myself. Using FT rates of course, though you could use total fouls, FT attempts, but I think the numbers would be similar.  My thought is FTR compared to opponents FTRs should take into account teams that are good or bad at drawing fouls or fouling themselves, etc.  I simply took the average FT rates for all the Big 12 teams and their opponents FT rates for Big 12 home games and road games.

And no, at least for this year, Missouri doesn't get the best advantage with FTs at home. Not even close.

Bob Davis just has the sort of voice that reminds you of your grandpa. Not saying that's a bad thing, but that's JMO.

Doesn't really remind me of my grandpa but my grandpa isn't a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

KK just played this.  

Said: "Lew Perkins is not sitting behind you any more"   :horrorsurprise:

The fact is these guys (employees of the KU athletic dept) are calling out refs by name.  

But then the BITB pointed out that Bob Davis is fantastic because you can tune in to him, listen to one sentence come out of his mouth, and you know immediately how the game is going.  I agree completely.  Bob Davis is fantastic.  I can easily tolerate the arrogant gloating if I know there is even a slim chance that I might hear the despondent depression.

Really made the Jim Rose meltdowns some of the best radio of all time.  That OSU game where he was practically in tears apologizing to the fans was incredible.  I took the radio into the bathroom and peeled one off into the sink.

Agreed.  Bob Davis and Jim Rose have no equals.

But Bob can't say referee names when he goes on a rant.  That will get him in trouble.
