Here's a link to the video of Acie's layup.

Tag -

Get over it. The game was called no better and no worse than any other game. Personally, I wouldn't have made either call, but we had plenty of other opportunities. Consistently blaming every loss on the refs is lame. We never should leave a game in the refs hands.

AggieKA while I agree with the overall tone of your post, the reality is that EVERY close game is "in the referee's hands". Especially when one decides to insert himself into the action instead of letting the kids fight it out to the end.

Tag IS entitled, and justified, in feeling shortchanged. Now, I see no value in being miserable a moment longer, but neither do I see a cause to demand that others "get over it." It sucked, it was wrong and it was inexcusable.

The game WAS in the ref's hands. And he fumbled it.

Frankly, I was happy with the "let 'em play" attitude of the refs. While i didn't like certain calls or non-calls, I think the Ags are much better off this way then getting in foul trouble with touch fouls being called.

Karl Hess? When did he get out of Spandau Prison?

Hess, in particular, has been perceived to get worked over by Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski during games. Many fans of other schools dread seeing Hess come out of the tunnel when their favorite team faces the Blue Devils.


....wonder what Calipari had to say to Hess.

I'm right there with you Tag...it was a chicken sheet call and there is no way anyone could convince me otherwise. We had opportunities and still lost the game, but that was BS.

In my opinion (and yes everyone is entitled) I thought Sloan whacked that guy pretty good and it was a decent call.

Put it to you this way. If that was A&M trying to rebound and you saw that, you'd be screaming for the foul if it wasn't called.

So, even though you're entitled to your opinion, it sounds a lot like sour grapes when you blame it on that call. The came up one point short for a lot of reasons.

Paul, with all due respect to your opinion here, NO - I would not have expected that foul to be called had the roles been reversed.

I did, however, expect a foul to be called when Acie was held on the breakaway.

Huh?

I thought he was too highwayman. That one bugged me worse than the call on Sloan. When the layup came up short, my first thought was - Acie couldn't get "air" because he was held.

Haven't seen a replay. I fully accept it if I'm proven wrong.

As you can see, he wasn't fouled.

highwayman, so you are saying that you don't believe Acie Law's jersey was being held during that sequence?
highwayman
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Doesn't appear so from the replay. Law's jump appeared awkward because he was trying to keep the ball away from the defender, who did a good job at disrupting the shot while avoiding contact

Highwayman, that's EXACTLY what I remembered seeing. I still think he got hooked as the defender ran by. Not saying you're wrong, but it looks like it did to me last night.

Either way, it was good defense. What he DID do is alter Acie's breakaway rhythm. That can also account for the missed timing and low layup.

It's over though - give the kid credit.

Calipari was working the refs hard just before the end of the 1st half. He was chewing them up.

>>to be called had the roles been reversed.

That's easy to say now. But let's say it was AK on the put-back and one of those guys raked AK across the arms and chest... you WOULD have been screaming for the foul along with 100 other posters in here.

cbs was obviously trying to get the most viewers with their split presentation. more t-shirt fans of any team will watch memphis's style of play than ours. bigwhigs at cbs made the call. and therefore you have it:

liberal media bias.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Proof's in the pudding. NOBODY in here, including me, was calling for any foul as ALL of those bodies were banging around fighting for those four rebounds. That was NOT the only contact on that series.

I don't feel like we got cheated because they didn't whistle Memphis for fouls in that tussle. And I guarantee you there was just as bad contact before Sloans.
