I've been on the boards since the 90's and there are only 3 games that I can remember that this many people on this board had the same opinion of the refs..... 2 were in the 6 years against UNC.... and this is the 3rd.
Tyler drove in the lane alot more in the 1st half compared to the 2nd half. The second half the switched defense really had an effect on him getting into the lane.
But Tyler isnt someone that drives in the paint to get fouled. Alot of times he pulls up and shoots a jumper or a floater.
The fact he's second on our team in getting to the line I think speaks volumes. We just don't have those guys that consistently draw fouls. Murray would rather take jump shots.
Briscoe does drive but not nearly enough and when he does get fouled he can't make a free throw

It was a terrible officiated game, and it didn't lose the game for us. If you didn't make a thread about it, it would already be an afterthought.
Your post is as inaccurate as the OP's, you must be cousins.
Your right. Anytime there's a disparity it's 100% the refs favoring another team lol
Why are you so hell bent on arguing with the majority who knows damn well what they saw? I never, and I mean NEVER, complain about officiating but last night and Arkansas 2014 are the only games I say the refs lost a game for us.
So let's say you have Team A and Team B...........Team A attempts 45 free throws. Team B attempts 15.
So that automatically means Team A was getting favorable calls from the ref?
What if I said in all possessions Team B took nothing but 3s and Team A did nothing but drive the ball into the lane. Would your opinion change?
Style of play has alot to do with it.
Why would I be upset over one of the biggest wins we've had all year? lol
I mean look u can try to paint me out as a non UK fan......the fact is I'm one of the most positive posters on this board. I love the direction this team is heading in.
It's been said that it was a terribly officiated game, if you don't recognize that maybe girl's soccer is more your game? Hopefully it won't take you 3 posts to try an make a point.
So because the majority of fans on a UK message board feel the calls didn't go UK's way in a loss, I'm supposed to just say oh ok I guess that's that.
The reason I'm arguing it is because in conference play we rank 11th on defense in free throw rate. It's a problem and if it doesn't get corrected, we'll lose games because of it.
This is a discussion board. It's worth discussing.
Post the numbers from the last 5 years.
You'll see this one is an outlier. We usually have a huge disparity in our favor.
Cause Cal preaches getting to the rim on offense and not fouling on D
It's just this year we haven't been good at it
2015 = 943 to 671 UK
2014 = 1146 to 836
2013 = 757 to 587
2012 = 938 to 614
2011 = 789 to 658
2010 = 971 to 688
So did the refs just change this season..........or do we just have an issue with the players on this team?

I'd like to see a link to this mass media outcry on "poor" officiating yesterday.
I'm not wasting time arguing with you. You have your opinion and I have mine. I respectfully disagree and wish you and your team good luck for the rest of the season.
I'm just going to name 1. Jay Williams. Look up his twitter.
He's only 1 of the ESPN crew but if you are serious about wondering... you can look around the interwebs yourself

Media members fall into the same trap.
When a team shoots that many more free throws than the other team, everyone feels the refs are favoring one over another.

Jay Williams picked Kansas to win the game. I doubt he fell into a "trap".
He's by and far the worst college basketball "analyst" in the history of college basketball.
“I love the place,” he said. “I love the campus. If you're a college student and you're in the midwest, really anywhere, this is a college campus, a college life, a student life. And the pride they take in this basketball program; Bill's taken it to another level, but it's always been here.”
Said Kentucky big man Alex Poythress: “Oh, it was crazy. Loudest atmosphere I've ever been in.”
Self used it (triangle and 2) because Kentucky's 5-foot-9 Ulis had been shredding KU's defense in an even louder way that even Oklahoma State's Jawun Evans and Iowa State's Monté Morris had in victories against Kansas. Less than two minutes into the second half, Ulis had scored 18 points, made 8 of 10 field goals and had five assists, no turnovers and three steals. Then Kansas switched its defense and Kentucky turned it over on its first possession against it and went on a three-minute scoring drought.
Ulis played all 45 minutes and finished with 26 points, eight assists and three turnovers. Whereas the junk defense slowed Ulis, nothing could stop KU's Wayne Selden Jr. (33 points) from having the best game of his career.
"Yeah, I didn't have many openings," Ulis said of playing against the triangle-and-two. "I forced a few things late, should have given the ball up."
Graham said that he and Mason communicated on each possession, discussing which player would check Ulis that time down the floor, doing so in order to prevent each other from growing too exhausted to be effective.
The defense made Kentucky slam on its brakes for the first time all night.
"They were chasing Tyler and Jamal and it made it difficult to get into our sets, so we had to change it on the fly," said Kentucky's Alex Poythress, who had a big night with 13 points, eight rebounds, a block and two steals.

It matters when your accusing the guy of falling into a trap. The guy gets paid to analyze games for a living and he criticized the officiating like the majority of people on this board have. You chose to keep arguing a point that very few agree with.
Actually I would put you as the worst analyst of college basketball ever. Jay Williams played the game and now gets paid to talk about the game...... he is infinitely more qualified to comment on this than some random Kansas fan
By the way, before the KU fan gets on the ignore list............ I want to remind everyone this was the same idiot who said KU had a chance with Fox and Monk a few months ago. argued the point almost until the bitter end. Just to show how blind the KU fan is
And Alex also echoed my point about the bigs fouling too much.
But people are choosing to ignore that.

Also not sure why anyone would be put on anyone's ignore list
So because people don't agree with your view of the game, they get put on ignore.
Seems childish to me lol.
People get mad over the craziest things lol

I'm done talking about Kansas. The games over with man. Your team won and I'm looking forward to our game Tuesday night. No matter what you post I watched the game with my own eyes and have my own opinion on the officiating. You defending that garbage is not going to change anyone's mind on this board.
Just curious, you ignore people who view things different than you? It's a message board, why let anyone get under your skin.LOL, I'm going to run out of space on the ignore list if I keep this up!
I don't understand the point of a Kansas fan coming to this board to defend the officiating.
