Ya think?

We were lucky to keep it at 14 without him.

That's why his 3rd was so ridiculous.

This is a game where a marginal player can become a legend. Will it be Facey?

I don't agree. We beat Duke in 2004 because Coach K played Shelden Williams with 2 fouls, and JC sat Emeka with 2. Thank God Emeka never picked up #5.

In fact, Emeka never even picked up #4. But you're right, the way the first half of that game was being called, Calhoun's decision to sit him with two probably made all the difference. Krzyzewski kept playing his guys, and I think Williams and Randolph both picked up their third before halftime. They were both sitting on the Duke bench as UConn completed that 12-0 run to decide the game.

You can not foul with 1 on the shot clock, Facey.

Unbelievable.

 

[Ewekon]

I guess not.

UConn should make a formal complaint to the AAC.

 

[Nostical]

Guess not.

Nick Horvath was their last line of defense. It didn't go well for them.

No.

These refs are so beyond belief at this point...

 

[uconnell]

Everything about the conference is an abomination.

What has that got to do with the refs? Why don't you Big East wannabes go watch BE games and leave us football and basketball lovers alone. Bunch of whiners.

 

[nomar]

We can't get through a single possession without getting a foul call. This is nuts.

 

[Hurleyman216]

We were catching up...queue the refs

 

[BugsyCT]

oh my lord - WOW

 

[UConnDan97]

Purvis with the glass!

 

[BUConn10]

Our fans are booing and our guys are frustrated by the calls but our guys are dumb and lack discipline and are fouling just as often knowing they are in foul trouble in a terribly called game.

[Doctor Hoop]

No.

Not a legend yet, but he did get things flowing this half.

Enoch needs to leave the game and not go back in until September.

Enoch's got to learn that Clark is going to come back to his right
