Message: [QUOTE="housekeys, post: 5161731, member: 2379"] I agree. IMO, both fans impressions of the officials are correct. PC fans complain of two many whistles in the second half. I would counter they should have called just as many in the first half. Because they did not, they favored Providence in the first half. Having said that, you have to acknowledge the exceptional individual effort by the Friars. As a UConn fan, I have always advocated for more whistles. UConn's game requires freedom of movement and results in a high assist to FGM ratio. Providence, with only 5 assists all game, does not rely on freedom of movement. Any off ball UConn grabbing and holding, that is not whistled, has little effect on how they run offense. UConn's style is more sensitive to off ball physicality. How it is called matters to UConn more so than other teams. [/QUOTE]
