52 fouls were called tonight; 144 in the last three games
If there's one disturbing trend in the past few weeks, it's the number of fouls called by SEC officials. Between the two teams, 52 fouls were called tonight, 24 on Kentucky and 28 on Mississippi State, slowing the game down to a crawl and making it practically unwatchable. Four players fouled out: Isaac Humphries, Quinndary Weatherspoon, Schnider Herard, and Xavian Stapleton. In the past three games, a whopping 144 fouls have been called, which is absolutely absurd.
A double-technical was called on Isaiah Briscoe and Quinndary Weatherspoon for this exchange after a foul on De'Aaron Fox:
