I was on a long car trip today and had to listen to the Providence game on Sirius.

I tuned in to the only broadcast that I could find, which was broadcast by a Providence Station, apparently.
 
In the first half when things were going their way the announcers called a pretty good game.

But OMG in the second half I've never heard two announcers lose it on the refereeing of any game like this!

Comments, ranged from UConn fans should be embarrassed that we were taking so many free throws to that our team can only win by shooting 80% of the line - It's part of a grand strategy to get to the line.

At first, I was enjoying it because it was a little bit funny but by the end of the game, I was thinking this was the most unprofessional broadcast I've ever heard.

When Providence started getting all kinds of calls at the end of the game, these announcers claimed that that it was just the referees trying to make the final stat sheet look better - make calls when they don't matter.

I hope we get a chance to beat them again this year just to annoy these two guys!
