Oh that's right we need to add more credence to the fact that we never actually lose a game but the refs have screwed us out of every ******* one of them.

For ***** sake, get over it, we have to PLAY better.

How come some people find it necessary to come on here and tell others what they should or shouldn't think. People took notice of this and have comments on it. The title of this thread is clear. If people have a problem with this thread/subject, then they can always choose to ignore it.

I personally give two *****, because games such as these shape seeding in the NCAA tournament. What if this loss keeps Iowa State from making it into the dance? How much money could this end up costing ISU? What about the supporters of ISU? If the teams like Kansas/Duke/uncch always get the calls and benefits, then why should the rest of us even watch the games or care? And people are getting tired of this ****, whether it is blatant corruption or incompetence in the officiating of these games.

dude, seriously take off the tin foil hat. I doubt very seriously that had ISU won it would have changed their seeding that much, Kansas may move from a 2 to a 3 at most. Jesus Christ, we have some of the most deranged fans on earth, hell I could easily see one of our fans doing what the ISU fan attempted to do, we are that ******* bad.

mods, can you please ban this UNC homer?  Or, at the very least, out him on his title?  I mean "horrible thread starter" is a gross understatement.

It was the maddest I had ever been after a ball game. The anger lasted for weeks. My wife was about to commit me.

I came to the conclusion several years ago that college basketball is FIXED in some instances.  The NCAA has a vested interest in keeping teams like Kansas, unc and dook at the top, so they have instructed the officials to make close and critical calls in favor of them.  The officials are also instructed to do things like give the best player on the other team 2 or 3 ticky-tack fouls in the first half so he will have to sit.  Then they even the # of fouls out during meaningless points in the game so things do not appear so one sided.  It is a scam and an embarassment to the NCAA and college basketball in general.

 

The fix is in in college basketball.  Accept it.  This is why I hardly watch anymore.  Watching some of these games has become like watching professional wrestling.

 

It's all about TV revenue and merchandise sales to the NCAA.

I think one easy improvement is to go with 6 or 7 fouls to foul out.  Very surprised this doesn't get more traction.  Lessens impact of officiating on the game.  As a fan - I want to see the best players on the court for the longest time competing; that goes for NC State and whoever we're playing.

Just watched the highlight here:

I actually like the no call on the charge.  The mistake was the call on the loose ball rebound.

You answered why it does get more traction with the second bolded line.  Why are you surprised?

College basketball is a sham.  It is the only major sport where the game officials can take players out of the game.  Sham!

Wow.  Unbelievable.  Not only to not call the charge, but then to call holding on the ISU player on the scramble.  Usually guys are allowed to kill each other on scrambles...

I'm sure if you looked at every play/game, these calls somewhat even out, but it sure does seem the preponderance goes to the powers.  I don't know that it's league orchestrated, so much as the refs are human too...surely they tend to get caught up in who's playing at times.

What this is about, is officiating, other than the ACC. Lord knows we hear so many complaints here about ACC officials, and how they favor the cheats and dookies.  Obviously, it goes on elsewhere as well. Last night, it surely favored another dominant college basketball team. The question does seem to arise, is there something going on, that keeps some of these teams at the top? I am not qualified enough to answer that, but many a red flag has been raised. I sure hope this isn't the case, but I have to admit, I may be a bit more, than suspicious.
