[Dontworryboutit23]

Boswell initiates every bit of the contact puts his shoulder down, gets bailed out with a foul call

 

[BBNWildcats4life]

I'm very nervous.

Always, I want this so bad for us, for Pope, for the program.

I'm not expecting a FF run, but all this builds on top of each other for the future with a coach I'm in love with lolol

 

[Seth_C]

The fouls are piling up. Even when they call one on Illinois it’s just to wipe points off the board for us.

Come on, ref. That’s a joke. Stop.

 

[katwest]

Boswell throwing his shoulders into us again.

 

[UKSanders]

I'm about tired of Boswell jumping into UK defenders and getting the foul call...there was at least one possession in the first half that the refs didn't give it to him

 

[mrjuk]

Gift 🎁

 

[catfan220]

They earned an easier game. St Mary's good luck coming back as bama isnt vandy.

Brea has been on fire this half! We are up 14 but still nervous.

Why is it Duke goes up 14 and I'm like okay game over. We're up 14 and I'm like, oh boy here comes a 20-0 run for Illinois...

 

[MbergCat]

The announcer just said that Williams has been outstanding on both ends of the floor...lol

 

[xc72wildcat]

Here comes a ton of free throws for Illinois

 

[TheBlueMist]

 

[TucsonCat]

71. 72

 

[FirewithFire]

There's the number.

 

[the dopester]

Finally!!!

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Another bailout foul call

 

[bbncal02]

Oh BULLSHIT.

He armbared Carr.

 

[ck-2]

These calls are ridiculous now.

 

[hotelblue]

his father is steph curry?

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Anddd here come the fouls. Like clockwork.

 

[FiveStarCat]

Lmao at that weak ass foul

 

[silentsaregolden2.0]

Up 15 pts and we have 7 fouls to their 3.

 

[Worf88]

Jac literally had Carr at arms length with the push off.

 

[UKSanders]

Just like the 1st half, the fouls are 7 on the Cats, 3 on ILL

Not saying the Cats haven't fouled, but ILL has too

 

[catfan220]

Shoutout Amari for swatting that shot after the whistle, I always like when our guys do that

 

[Kentucky2022]

Bs foul refs already got them in the bonus go figure

 

[ck-2]

3 fouls to 7. Get on them Pope.

 

[BlueRunner11]

We never get a call like that ffs

 

[darkshadesofblue]

Keep playing smart aggressive, getting to the closing minutes

 

[crawfords corner]

Apparently now we are fouling on every possession now

 

[pauled]

Illinois with 3 fouls!

 

[hotelblue]

illinois in the bonus on that call. hmmm.

 

[SemperFiCat]

Refs got their bonus. Ugh.

 

[BBNWildcats4life]

7-3 fouls again lol.

Refs going to ruin a beautiful game so far

 

[Mash 2.4]

We probably win if the refs don’t foul us all out.

 

[JHannibalSmith]

Bread handle has improved alot from the start of the year... He had to look down to dribble at the start... Now his head is up.... Still alittle shakey...but soooooooooo much better...

Bread has been toasting Illinois all day. He’s really been on a roll. Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.

 

[Cat in ga]

Illinois doesn’t foul it appears

 

[jpuk974]

7 fouls for the Cats and 3 for Illinois. I’ve seen this movie before.

 

[sefus12]

Weak foul called on Carr to put IL into the bonus. It’s almost like the officials want to try and keep this close.

 

[CondorCat]

Pope's substitution pattern has been much better this game!

 

[KyCatFan]

Bullcrap foul calls. Only 3 for them. Only good thing is if it gets closer they will have to waste time fouling.

 

[crawfords corner]

Damn it. Gone cold
