Nothing more predictable than a fan base complaining about the refs. Why do people do it?

Just looked at Uconn's plus/minus on turnovers to date. They're -20 and that's with a plus 10 against Holy Cross. This across meager competition. Throughout the box scores to date, most of the basics are always in Uconn's favor - FG%, Rebounds. The one neutralizer that keeps teams effective is the turnovers - this team is just sloppy with the basketball. Most of the games where you'd think this team should pulverize the opponent, it's been the turnovers/additional FG attempts that's kept teams in it. Fortunately, that's something that they can get better at given it's usually focus/decision making and not as much about talent/athletecism.

They called foul on Drummond there? After all the flops?

If we take nothing else away from this game, it's great to see JL embracing the go-to-guy role.

Bad calls on both sides.

On the other hand, how was that a blocking foul on Drummond?

Only player in double digits is JL. Game is still not over since we're up 5 over USF. USF. I really just do not get this team.

Impressions: Collins (USF freshman guard) is pretty good; very quick and good D (picked SN and RB clean a
couple of times.)
These refs are not having a great game. I realize that I have the luxury of replay, but I'm not getting paid
to get them right. I think the time has probably come for Bob D'Onato to hang em up.
Jeremy Lamb is a stud; we'd better get the most we can out of him this year.
Olander is very much improved over last year.
