Message: [QUOTE="wallman, post: 2672692, member: 1736"] I had a little giggle at your post. Why, because of course you don't think there was anything wrong, you are ND. The foul inequity is a problem. It is a problem when the same calls are not being made against both teams, it is called inconsistency and the womens game deserves some kind of consistency in the final four of the NCAAs. I enjoyed the close games and the excitement but I can also step back and realize that something was amiss. It was not only in this game but all the games. Apart from inconsistency, some of the calls were blatantly against the rules. You cannot swallow your whistle for one call and not another, thats not how it works. As far as Uconn is concerned, they were called for fouls that didn't exist and they are a team that tries all season not to foul by playing defense the right way. ND don't play D very well and yet they were allowed to get away with it by the refs. The same thing happened with McCowan. 1 foul the whole game is just flat out not what happened. Then the blatant foul by Mabrey just should never have been ignored by the refs. I also feel that the constant feel sorry for me attitude by McGraw had its affect not only on the refs but also on the media. I ask you, what is worse for the game, a team that has won and played the game the right way or a coach that constantly pushes the woe is me card, every time she is interviewed. Every team has its adversities and most play with injuries and small rotations but most don't whine about it. [/QUOTE]
