Fraschilla vs KU

Hate to do this because it sounds like whining, but you asked so here goes.

Last year against Villanova. I wouldn't say it caused KU to lose but it definitely helped Villanova. KU was down by 2 with the ball with less than a minute on the clock. Graham splits a double team at half court, gets tripped, falls and in the process of trying to recollect the ball gets called for a foul. So instead of KU shooting FT's with the opportunity to tie, Villanova has the ball. Plus it was Graham's 5th foul.

Yeah that's not really how it went down at all, he lost the ball and took a guy out at the knees. Nice try though Champ

Are you saying he didn't foul here?
(skip to the 4 minute mark)

That was a clear foul on Graham but that's a "bad call" that went against KU.

Dude, he lost possession of the ball, dove for it, and took out the opposing player. That is a text book foul, and if you say otherwise, you are letting your homerisim get in the way.

I remember that as well and I thought KU got the short end of that. However, I think the writer is probably looking for an example in a Big 12 game. I can't remember a recent situation in a Big 12 game.

You are certainly entitled to think that but I would suggest watching the video kcclone linked. There does not appear to be any contact by the Nova players.

The fact that this is a "bad call against KU" says all anyone could ever say. Graham was never tripped; in fact, he took two or three steps after losing the ball, then lunged for the ball and about tore some dude's ACL. It's laughable how entitled KU fans are.

Here is an honest man. Big East homer Bill Raftery also thought KU got the short end on that.

As far as a Big 12 game, I'd go to WVU in 2015. Staten blatantly walked (4 steps) on his way to the game winning basket. Had the travel been called properly, KU would have had the ball up one with a few seconds left.
