Refs for Game Today

[spotter34]

These personal agendas that refs develope toward certain coaches should be dealt with. The fact they don't have to answer to anyone only encourages their arrogance.

Why did usc get the ball when skal and the other dude dove oob and he clearly threw it off his own foot? I mean, even a blind geriatric in the last row could have seen that.

They called a foul on Skal.

They called a foul on Skal yes it is that bad

Being a ref in todays game is difficult, at best. But this is unbelievable. A lot of people get on Tony Greene here, I think he is a good official, but the Sirmons clown it bad.

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

Ulis fouled on the J....no call!

 

[MuEvans]

This is so stupid....I wonder if Illinois st sued....

 

[_NewWorldOrder_]

Anybody who doesn't believe the refs are out to get us on the road in delusional.

 

[ukfan606]

Sermons makes Karl Hess look like the best official in the game.

This game will be known in UK history as "The Columbia Screw Job".

 

[UKserialkiller]

We're not allowed to play defense

 

[marionbugman]

Run out of the sec and now is mainly a big 12 ref. Wonder how he got on this game. He needs to stay out west with the rest that left the sec several years ago over money issues.

 

[UKserialkiller]

Never in my life would I ever think that the Rafters would need a game thread for the refs. Unbelievable

 

[TriCountyCAT]

He and he partners are currently trying to follow the Kansas treatment and remove us from all of our big men. We might foul them all out before the half.

 

[BigBlueManSouthCentralKY]

Anyone that doesn't know, he has cheated us for a very long time. It will be hard for our guys to overcome the MF.

 

[UKserialkiller]

Carerra is a hot head that should have 2 techs

Is this real life?!? Like, is this real?!? [roll]

Having the same set of officials in the same conference every season brings in more opportunity for bias or favoritism. Refs are broken up in groups and then each conference gets a group and that's where they stay for years and years. Instead, the groups should rotate to a new conference every year.

It's obvious Sirmons doesn't like Cal. He has been screwing us for 4-5 years now including the FF loss to Wisconsin and at KU this year. A lot of it has to do with doing so many of our games and being around Cal so much. If he were only in our conference for 1 season before being rotated then he wouldn't have a chance to build a like or dislike for Cal.

 

[Lumpy 2]

Officiating cost us that game. The shot clock violation that they didn't call, changed everything.

I'm pretty sure Sirmons was the one standing right underneath the basket on that play and somehow missed that call. I don't know if he's a crook or just that incompetent. It's got to be one or the other.

 

[etowncatfan]

LOL these take the cake!!

 

[blu2blu]

Officials, everyone gets a torphy

 

[hotelblue]

it's just the way things was.

 

[mkasten25]

There's a common theme

 

[ZaytovenCat]

Annnnnd #3 on Willis was another piece of crap. It was all ball! I can't believe how bad this is.

 

[deplion_rivals116063]

We should be up 30.

I still say we'll be beyond lucky if we escape with a 1 point win.

 

[crazyqx83_rivals88013]

SUCK ON THAT BIRMINGHAM!!!!!1!1!1!

 

[UKserialkiller]

We should be up 30.

I still say we'll be beyond lucky if we escape with a 1 point win.

That point spread isn't 1 point for nothing

 

[KingOfBBN]

That point spread isn't 1 point for nothing

Basketball has an officiating problem and we all have to pretend that the game isn't corrupt. Don't tell me officials aren't compromised. They are.

Vegas influences a lot.

 

[ulismyman]

What ya got to say now...they suck

 

[Fitch44]

These ***** *** refs getting out bigs every time down the floor ain't holding us down.
Skal Lee Isaac and Willis have all had at least two fouls that were complete ********.
Love that we have to over come it on the road and curb stomp these bitches. Especially carrera's punk *** head.

 

[deplion_rivals116063]

Frank Martin should have high praise for them in his post-game interview.

They have done their jobs and kept USCjr in it as best they can for as long as possible.

 

[mattadam]

Sirmons is an ******* and biased. He was one of the main ones screwing us at KU this year.

Man the turd sermons is just bad -- he made two foul calls on us in 2nd half where there easily discernible no contact by our player! That last foul against Willis on the SC center who simply lost control of the ball out of bounds was ridiculous!

 

[Pope John Wall II]

Referee apologists may be worse than Islamic apologists.

I honestly don't know how you can make a case that UK isn't the most bastardized Blueblood in terms of officiating favor.

Even INDIANA receives a more favorable whistle than us and they haven't been good since Reagan.

 

[dckala2_rivals16641]

In their eyes it was the right call.

It's like they think they are more knowledgable by not complaining about refereeing.

You are right.

They seem to wear it as a badge of honor that makes them morally superior to the "common fan".

 

[NavyKat]

Yup. Every game UK has multiple players with foul issues and it is getting old. Cal should use this as a pulpit to bring the issue to light. He can afford the fine.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

I have watched basketball for 30 years. I have never seen such a "spectacle" from one official. Im not even talking about the Technicals.

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

For the sake of CB, yes!

 

[KWilt43atbuzz]

Him having to endure this clinic Kentucky is putting on after he tossed Cal super early should be punishment enough.

Throw him out again ***** and see what happens next time you big buffon!

 

[Ineverplayedthegame]

Unless he had UK and the over, it's not working out too well.
