My gripe is KU's home games. I usually expect the home team to get a couple of favorable calls over the course of the game - just seems to be how it is at most places, especially for the "good" teams. My perception is that we get screwed on calls more often than not at our home games. Just my blue-tinted perception . . .


oh dear.

It's true... go back and watch the KU/Mizzou game.  Xavier Henry gets slapped so hard on the arm you literally hear it on TV, and the refs call the ball out of bounds off of his leg.

So, one play is your example of "more often than not"?

How many moving screens by Aldrich that nearly break bones fail to be called at Phag Allen?

No, it's just the first example that I had off the top of my head.  I really don't see the blatant homerism in Allen Fieldhouse that some might expect.

Well you also miss the blatant bias on the road, so somehow I'm not surprised.

KU is just good.  They win at home.  They win on the road.  Yeah, they get some calls, but so do the opposing teams.

KU gets the same bias that all good teams do at home. No more, no less. But it exists.

Not sure why you're denying this. I'd be bragging this crap up.

Yeah. I mean, it's fantastic. Was great to get a taste against Nebraska, especially with Doc melting down and the Nebraska announcers crying after every call.
