Message: [QUOTE="90BSEE, post: 4520356, member: 12498"] I don't think it was equal. I think they let UT get away with a lot more. In general, I think the refs don't call enough fouls and the games are far too physical. The rules are the rules. Call it by the book. Having said that, the one place where they do call nearly all the fouls are on jump shooters. Even I think that some of those touch fouls can be let go. They call that crap and allow cutters and drivers to be taken out, judo style. And there are a couple of cases where they call fouls on non-fouls. When someone jumps into the defender and the defender's arm comes down and touches their arm(s) due to the contact, that is not a foul and shouldn't be called. If anything, it is an offensive foul. Occasionally we benefit from these types of calls but certain opponents ALWAYS get those calls. [/QUOTE]
