Is muuuuuch better in this tournament so far. They are letting them play and not calling every ticky tack contact. I'll take it! This is one of the reasons I believe we will do well in this tournament and the NCAA tournament overall.
Yep I agree. No ticky tack crap

I have been to several first round NCAA games. And one thing is consistent. They don’t call fouls unless you actually kill someone

I believe those ticky tacky fouls make our guys reluctant so they back off and then there is also the threat of that second foul and you sit. They seem afraid to play because they are gonna get called. I cannot believe when I see other teams not called and we get loaded down with them. Happens every year.

Higgins is in the Big 12 Tournament, but I did see Doug Shows in a previous SECT game so I wouldn’t be surprised if we get him tomorrow.

Well they did call fouls on 3's twice that were phantom but beyond that I agree. Much better.

I would bet anything in a 3rd round NCAAT game with UK playing Higgins will show up once again.

Tony Greene likes his TV time, but, he has called pretty decent games, the last couple of years. Maybe it is because we are so used to getting screwed, we think that any officiating that is half-way fair, is good. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

There was a post on here at the time of the Higgins “incident” that showed blown calls. I can’t find it. If anyone has it, I would like to see it again. It was pretty convincing.

I know about the WVU game, but us Kansas fans have a beef with him too.

Not sure how many of those WVU calls were him and not gonna re-watch until after the season. But it’s a game I’m definitely gonna re-watch.

Those were what I call shadow fouls....they were fouled by the defenders shadow....It seems to be a SEC phenomenon......

You have to be kidding. Higgins is the best thing that ever happened to KU. You wouldn't still have the Big 12 streak without him.
