This crew should be investigated over the continuation call

Not just that one.
That was felony level bad. Someone had OU and the points.
It seems this year, anything within 12 feet of the basket is fair game. Physical play is one thing, but this is bordering on ridiculous.
Carr was mugged twice the last few minutes.
Question: was the crew allowed by rule to review the cut to Chandler’s head? That call, the continuation, and the non-flagrant hurl of Carr were all outrageous. Not to mention a metric f-ton of physical play.
Those refs must have shat down both legs when OO's shot went down. You know they were dying to stick it to to our crowd. I'm honestly surprised they didn't try to steal it back.
Oglesby went home with less money in his pocket thanks to OO.
The game was far from over at that point. Spread def. still in play.
Just wait until tonight when Sears will get the prime Kobe whistle
Well I guess any foul could be a shooting foul. Maybe a player isn’t yet in the act of shooting, but he’s planning on shooting eventually. Maybe you’re in the back court, but your plan is to dribble down and shoot. Who cares if you’re 90 feet from the basket, make it a shooting foul. Makes about as much sense.
What about dude pulling Carr down to the ground? How was that not flagrant?

our league is doing us a real solid, preparing us for the shock of a tight ncaa whistle.
Chandler blood streaming diwn face no call, no review. Carr hit in the head grabbed by shoulders, reg foul. All those hits down the stretch, nothing.
Olgebsy should be investigated.

I was at the game. They would do things just to take the wind out of our sail. You could tell it was coming every time we went up 5-8 points.
This kind of thing is disheartening. It makes me not care about watching NCAA basketball anymore. And I've been a UK fan since 1992.
Their task was to make sure we didn't cover. Task achieved.
You could tell because every time we got in that 5-8 range, here came the bs.
In the critical part of the game in the last minute, please point out all the bad calls on Oklahoma.
Ash, I have been a fan since 1959 and I stopped watching college games years ago. The way the ncaa has changed the rules and the quality of the refs has done it for me. I only watch UK games and that is hard to do also.

Is there a crew in the US that can call a UK game fairly? It would be interesting to see a game where we didn't get fouled constantly without a whistle, or the ability to be as "physical" (which is bullsht) ourselves on the other end of the court.
As far as I'm concerned the entire conference and their head of officiating should all be investigated from their communications to their bank accounts. We aren't the only team that's gotten the treatment. It's way past time there was some accountability.
I’ve probably said this 100x on here when these threads pop up, but…
When fans come to accept the realization that the officials are in place to steer certain games in the sports gambling industry’s best interests, how games are officiated will start to make perfect sense.
Until then, let’s all just pretend that they are blind, incompetent, or have a bias against certain programs/ coaches.

Exactly. Always the same BULLSHT spin from the same people every time an officiating crew clearly abandons the rules, whether it's the end of a game or the entire game. JUST DO YOUR FKNG JOBS the same for the ENTIRE FKNG GAME! It shouldn't be too much to ask.
Oh, it makes perfect sense already, but there's no question it's gotten infinitely worse this season.
So - what are all the possible channels for a referee to come under formal scrutiny because of their calls?
The conference is the one I've heard the most - and i can't think of anything significant the SEC has done in response to evaluating referee crews (I could be wrong)
The NCAA?
Seems like it would have to be a much wider problem than calls in one game
Also - the NCAA isn't exactly at its most productive or competent point in history
State Gaming Conventions?
I saw the PA Gaming authority identify "suspicious" halftime movement on the betting for a mid-major game last year - they alerted the NCAA to help investigate -- which landed exactly where the NCAA ppl have absolutely ZERO skills or value
Outside lawyers or Stare AG's office?
Would have to be a compelling case where financial or reputations were harmed within that state right? We DID see State AG's jump in when the NCAA tried to punish UT and UF for how they established their NIL deals - they took up the challenge as an anti-trust violation
Surely - over time there would be a way to have ref's somehow investigated via the Gaming oversight type channels??
Unless of course THEY are equally corrupt
The NCAA & member institutions have an inherent Interest in ensuring gambling industry influence and associated profiteering aren't impacting & corrupting the management & outcomes of University sporting events
I would think we see some kind of national conference or university led efforts soon to at least to pretend that they care
i understand it's not a simple problem though

I think they'll let build up a huge body of compromised work, then find their fall guy(s) to take the sting out for a little while, without actually changing anything. It's musical chairs really. Whoever gets caught making it look the most obvious will lose their job, while the rest just keep on keeping on.
Yeah someone would have to do something monumentally stupid & public -- that harmed monied interests AND sullied an academic institution's reputation for a genuine intervention that's intended to correct and punish
Bro...there was blood, without contact. There was guys thrown and pulled to the ground, with no technical. That was a dirty game! That strip on Carr picture floating around has like 4 points of contact, with a ref arms length away. Stop justifying.
It will never happen. Some folks are just enablers and they can't quit it
Give me three examples of really bad calls that went our way.
Yeah I didn't even mention Owehs 3rd and 4th foul where the Offensive player clearly extending their arm out to clear Oweh out and was just standing there and got called for blocks both times. It was worse than the GA game and that's saying a lot.
"Inconsistent calls consistently bad"
Is how I would characterize (and I'm trying to be polite here) the officiating last night
But when Kentucky got up 5, 8 points every time, here came the deflation from the momentum sapping officiating. You could tell by the flow. Anyone watching can see what is actually happening here. 'Nuff said.
I'm preparing my lube for Alabama version 3.0

I have a hunch that the refs will try to cover up what happened against Ok by taking the points tonight and giving 'bama the screw job. If I'm not just being paranoid they will probably put Sears in early foul trouble.
