Refs gave us many gifts too


this...we were incredibly aggressive...they didnt call that many fouls on RU in the 2nd half...the stretch they did were bonehead fouls by RU and Cliff has to know better almost all of his fouls today were not worth it

The 2 calls I didn’t like were the charge against Simpson late. The Purdue player’s feet were off the ground as he was jumping into position… zero chance that he was set. The second was Caleb’s 5th foul… could have easily let them play there. So yes situationally those calls hurt. Otherwise there are a few dozen coulda/shoulda calls/non-calls both sides could point to.
Agree with all of this.

Problem with that is when a team gets calls against them early, many times they play a little more timid so as to not take the 4th or 5th foul. Not calling many fouls on RU in the second half is great but………

If we ever met In person you would be flopping all over the floor

I was sitting second row and it was a flagrant foul you piece of ****
100% and very, VERY CLEAR on TV. Not sure how anybody can call that a "flop." Now...did Paul "sell it?" Sure, but Eady shoved him NO DOUBT about that!

Yup. Cliff was mugging Edey and the one guy called it a jump ball and we got a Spencer three off that. It was bad both ways.

I think the bigger picture is that b10 refs are just generally not performing at the level they should be across the board for all teams...not specific to RU overall or the RU/purdue game.

I thought this was a good call. He was in the air but going straight up

the fact is cliff cant pick up 2 in 4 seconds and Caleb cant foul 2 seconds later. That wasnt on the refs, that is on RU.
Stop. Those back to back calls on Cliff were completely unnecessary. If they call those they can call the same foul on almost every single possession. It was ridiculous

that i would agree with. Nothing else to complain about, we had our chances and didn't finish. Great effort overall though

Yes and Edey's blatant shove of Wolf in the back.

I think refs come into our games with the attitude that we are an aggressive team that fouls alot so they are already to blow the whistle. To those of you who think things even out, you are f'ing crazy. The big boys with a reputation, like Dickinson and Edey, and the crybaby coaches, get away with so much it's disgusting.

Did you really think those were fouls on Cliff. Edey did that to Cliff the whole game as well and blantantly pushed Wolf down but no calls. Be consistent as Cliff was playing that way all game with no calls until right then. Otherwise I thought they called it evenly as we did play aggressive. It was the turning point of the game. Down 1 to down 7 in 2 minutes after Cliff goes off

I defy anyone to argue with a straight face that the refs did not totally fu@k us down the stretch. Neither of Caleb's last two fouls were actually fouls and we would have had the ball on a steal after the first one and a tie up on the 2nd. The charge on Simpson has horseshit too. He should have been shooting two. Unbelievable. The refs tilted the balance of the game for sure.
FT's: Perdie 19-27, RU 9-13. Ridiculous

Someone has to keep the children in line
Your posts are childish and just sent to incite. If you posted something meaningful with actual facts maybe people would take you seriously. I post rarely but hope they are adding to the conversation. Yours are not and maybe that is the intent. To each their own.

Every other post on this board is just playing victims or overreacting to a players bad performance. I’m glad you find that inciteful. Good for you.

Yup. Not all fouls are equal which is a concept some can't seem to grasp for some reason
this is exactly it!! of course RU got some calls. let's be real. No one can deny that, but on short end of the game changers
