Will the Big 12 Issue a Statement

[#LIFE]

Would have went to overtime without our best player. Take the 2 point L and call it a moral victory #oscar

Our best player this game was on the floor, he missed a three to win the game. DJamer didn't play much anyway.

He's not our best player, but we should go ahead and blame this L on white people huh you racist eff

Clearly the non-statement statement maker, who has some authority of the officials, watched the video. Rather than just say no comment, he takes an indefensible and patently absurd position regarding one of the oldest original rules of basketball.

From the Big-12 non-statement statement, I note no one is to be accountable for performing at an acceptable level and the conference's lost credibility. Sweet.

Watch the replay. Should have been Cats ball side out of bounds with 2.2 seconds to play. OT is not assured.

how do you defend a guy allowed to literally run to the basket from mid court?

you could get in his way a little.

They did, don't be a dumbass, as usual, sys

not until he was 6 feet from the basket.

yeah, what on earth was The Flush doing?

We missed an open 3 and can't play help d on a guy striking to the basket when tied with 5sec on the clock.  The very definition of not taking care of biz.  It's hard to be wrapped up in calls on this one, imo.

Wes bobbling that offensive board hurt way worse to me than the missed 3. I know that's a tough board with the angle it came at and his position, but it was right there. 

[pissclams]

well obviously it was a huge win for ku
the way everyone rushed the floor you would have thought they won the national championship for once

I can't complain about the last sequence defensively that much. We forced the ball away from KU's best guards to a poor ball handler and he made a mistake, it just didn't get called. Granted, he caught the ball going hard toward the basket, but if any of our players get too close/make contact its going to be a foul. Wes got caught helping toward Mason (which was the right thing to do), but still made a play at the ball 40 feet from the basket and the guy picked up his dribble and took 4 steps.

Not saying DJamer is our best player, but I think even the refs noticed that he was unstoppable by the KU defense. He was calling for the ball every time down. When they fed him he delivered. Despite VERY limited minutes due to fouls, he had 10 points. If DJamer would've had a foul to give when he fouled out, and IF we feed him the ball at the end, we win.

Of course, if Ifs and Buts were candy and nuts . . .

Unless oscar was counting on a steal on the inbounds (which he very well may have been doing) it was pretty poor. Any poor ball handler at that level can get the ball up the court and finish pretty quickly with basically no pressure on them.

Yes, the way the refs were calling the last few minutes we could not have gotten in front of him without getting a foul call. We made the last 10 seconds into a 50/50 chance of winning in the toughest road environment we're going to play in all year. Any other team in the top 10 would have been happy to be in our position.

I think he rolled the dice on making someone other than Mason or Jackson beat us and it didn't work. (sort of)

In one sense, the strategy worked perfectly. An inferior ball handler turned over the ball. It just wasn't called.

I don't think it's a given a foul would have been called.  It's practically tradition to "let them play" on these last second shots/possessions.

Yeah, but at AFH a foul absolutely would have been called.

it's a bigger issue than the last play of the game.  big 12 refs suck ass and their shittyness was on display last night for the entire game.

we got like 3 calls in a row sometime in the mid-2nd half.  then they called 3-4 make up calls for ku to shut the crowd up.  it was so evident and stupid. 

reffing a game isn't easy and should be left to professionals, which these applefuckers certainly were not

I certainly got this sense watching the game. It was as if they felt they had to call 25 fouls each half and were just trying to divide them up somewhat evenly.

Dead on, they were in over their heads. People get on Higgins but he has one of the best crews in the country, the moment is never too big for them. They were in Lubbock last night.
