Tuned in on the radio and all I hear is "gulp gulp gulp"
Happens when a 18 year old has 18 in the first half while not really being that aggressive. Not sure how that’s hard to understand unless you just hate elite talent. You must have hated when they did that for Anthony Davis over and over or Bam Bam Bam Bam

They just said Calipari is 35-0 in NCAA tournament games when leading by 6 at any point. I mean, that’s kinda incredible
I know the narrative here is the man can’t coach, but hell…you don’t just luck into the success he’s had. He knows how to win games.

When we play against Duke, whistle was way better than now...

Now I think Duke will be the champion

No one can play against duke with this whistle

Another way to think about this:

Higgins didn't do us any favors, but in order to lose that 2015 Final Four Cal had to take that undefeated Kentucky team and fail to lead lowly Wisconsin by as much as even 6 points at any point all game.

Rooferee may well have had an agenda. But even if so it took Cal sucking for 40 minutes to bring it to fruition.

EDIT: Oh. I see the comment it was really only when leading by 6 at the half. Still same Cal, same suck.

The stat is straight bogus. Im sure there are several more but just quick check, his Memphis loss to KU, UK vs Auburn, and UK vs St Peter’s all blew 6+ point leads

Cal ain't this good of a defensive coach. This is a joke.

This one ref has been blowing his very favorable Arkansas whistle all night.

Also…it’s clear the announcers have been told to push this continuation bs this year. It’s a bad rule that’s only thing bc the entertainment oriented NBA. But it’s clear they’ve been given marching orders to make it a college rule. Not once has it ever been championed for until this season and you hear it every game now

What is Texas Tech even trying to do on the offensive end????!!!

They keep pushing the ball down low only to EAT IT whenever their Big tries to shoot over the Arky Bigs!!!

Then they are SOOO horrible at shooting 3's, they aren't even looking to shoot it from out there anymore.

Then on defense, they can't stay with ANY of the Arky guards, so they either give up easy attempts or FOUL.

This game is OVER.

Cal and his HORRIBLE team has made it to the FREAKIN Elite 8.

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

Duke looks really legitimately good to me. They have only gotten much stronger throughout the year. Alabama will have to play out of their minds to win.

Duke is probably going to win the title.

No one wanted to believe it and hoped it was just cause they played in the awful ACC but nope. They are legit.

Why are any of you wasting time watching Duke? With the whistle they get, they’re not losing. This is one of those years where Duke always wins it all. No dominant team and they get an easy path and the favorable whistle. They’re winning it all, just accept it
